Eskimo Wonder

This is My version of a Native American Woman Full of Wisdom and Courage - I love Her!!! All done by me. She is a Woman with a lot of  Life's Experiences behind her - She's lived hard and she is the strength of many around her - She captures a blissful moment as she reads the sky for its answers.  Today will be a good day :) Her outfit is made of rabbit fur and her boots are hand carved of wood soles. Not a Beauty, but who is these days?! 

THIS DOLL IS A ONE OF A KIND and you will find no other like it!

 

Voice in the Winds

This doll is a one of a kind made by an artist, KS which happens to be me! His name is "Voice In The Winds" and he is a spiritual man whose ear has become acutely sharp to hear the great spirit voice. His people come to him for guidance - He is a Sioux Native and his face and hands are made from Super Sculpey. All sculpted by hand, he is also painted. His hair is wool and is adorned with feathers and red fabric and braids with large touches of Tibetan lamb. His Outfit is all hand made out of a cream colored suede with red fringes and beaded (red and white) as are his moccasins - He is all hand sewn and stuffed. His arms are movable and he sits somewhat cross- legged holding a Prayer stick with Tiger's eye on it for Courage. 

THIS DOLL IS A ONE OF A KIND and you will find no other like it! He is also wearing a beautiful native American turquoise bracelet of silver on his right wrist. 13 inches high, 13 inches long. and 8 inches across.

Ol' Lady Wisdom

Actually done while I used my Mom as the inspiration for this piece, I’ve aged her and made her uniquely different - adorned her with a renaissance dress and a friendly friendly smile - Now this is a lady you can trust!  She holds the secrets of many and the resentments of none - With a world of advice, she rarely gives - One must ask - This woman is a rare and Joyful Gift!

Turtle Lady

Turtle Lady is the only doll I've made that came to me through pure inspiration and internal vision -- she was not modeled after any face and is pure in creation. That’s why she’s my favorite and I love her dearly!!  She is a Greek elder, happy as can be - She is simple and content and thrives only to make others happy - her gift is that she can :) - This lady can make you feel so special, so chosen, that you never want to leave her side!  Look at her smile - she’s a wonder !

 

Kachina

This is my attempt to spice up and bring forth "humanness" to the traditional kachina, which depicts the gods.  It is a kachina doll made of sculpey clay for the head and has a wooden sculpted body.  He is an eagle dancer.
