I love making dolls, but for some time I'd been feeling the need to do something more with my creative energy. It seems that painting is just what I needed. There's something freeing about painting that's just not present when I make dolls. My dolls are tiny in comparison to most handmade dolls and require a level of attention to detail that can be stressing. I'm a perfectionist and as such don't tolerate flaws in my work. Hence, even though I love making dolls, the process can be overwhelming at times.

Painting is the opposite for me. When I paint I let myself go. I don't pressure myself to be perfect, I simply go where the painting takes me. Mistakes can be easily corrected or worked into the final product. I do plan to sell my artwork eventually, but for the time being it's just my thing.

I sure do! I have to make a conscious effort to move away from purple, teal and hot pink. Those are my favorite colors and they keep appearing in my work over and over.
DeleteThanks for the visit! <3
Your Moon Blossom is breath-taking! I love how you have captured her expression and brought life to her with your paints! Beautiful :)
