September Exhibit

The upcoming September 2009 exhibit of my work will be Oriental in theme. The 'theme' was entirely up to me and, as with every previous exhibit, most of what you will see has never been seen before. The converse is also true: if you miss the exhibit, well, you will not get to see this one repeated.

The window to the fairyland that is Little Cow Harbor, opens briefly for one month. When it closes, that view is gone forever. To me this makes perfect sense; the dolls will have moved on with their lives.

Azul is one of my original one-of-a-kind hand sculpted ball joined dolls. By their very nature, one-of-a-kind dolls are rare. Difficult and time consuming to create, Azul was a labor of love. She is apparently Oriental in persuasion, very distinctive with her long peacock blue hair, and is approximately two feet tall. Deemed to be the very essence of a modern high fashion model, Azul was the focus of her own interactive photographic installation by Richard Gardner.

Ball jointed doll aficionado and Washington D.C. fine arts photographer Miss Ally has just completed a book on Azul. This is actually her 'second' book on Azul. The first book was actually deemed so valuable by rare book dealers, that no more were printed. Thus, ensuring the value of the few original copies. Consequently, this is the first time, you can add 'one of my dolls' or 'one of our books' to your collection. The book is available for on-line purchase here: http://www.blurb.com/bookstore/detail/805045 "Click the pages" to peruse and buy this tiny gem of a publication.
