I think he is pretty snazzy!
See you in Chicago!
Dark-skinned man 2
I leave for Chicago tomorrow but I’m still working away! After these fellows, I have 3 foxes I’m hoping to finish before I get on the plane.
This is a much redder brown than the other.
The toile is amazing. He has a badger on his chest- at least I think that’s a badger.
And a kitty on his back!
My elephant ear is starting to take over my porch- very encroaching.
Stop by and say hi if you are in Chicago!
dark-skinned man
I know I’ve mentioned it before. Skin color is tricky. And honestly, I am not that good at dyeing. So when I try something new and it comes out right, it seems like a miracle.
big man rework
I thought he was done when I took this photo-
But I looked at the photos and looked at the piece and carried him back up to the studio. He spent a few days watching me work and I would glance over every once in a while and ponder. He was not quite complete. But now-
Yes, he need some red suspenders. Because, you know, he did.
His nice brown swirly beard.
Great toile designs on the front and back- genteel folk in their garden.
another lumberjack
He has George Washington on his chest and cherubs on his arms.
Also, embroidered suspenders.
lumberjack with rusty beard
big man with lady tattoos
He’s sort of a pirate-y dude.
skeleton mustache man
Wow- this is #100 doll for 2014! You can see all I’ve done this year over here on Flickr. And yes, I really am tired and can’t think of a better name for this lovely fellow.
blondie
I don’t make very many blonds.
I still think this is some of the best toile I’ve ever seen!
back to the tattooed men
I’m in a bit of a tizzy, getting ready for my commitments in September- Renegade in Chicago and Crafty Bastards in Washington, DC. I won’t be adding anything new to the Etsy shop for a while. My latest is a slightly worried looking fellow- probably reflects my mood!
