Doll done

After a bit of trouble with her colour c ombination and colours I got her done. If you remember from my previous post that I had started this doll before going to India. Since I couldn't finish her I took her to India thinking I would be able to finish her. I had a clear picture of her in my mind. We all have this clear picture but the trouble is it does not work out sometimes. I painted her body with pearl white and the bodice with gold pigment colour in India. But somehow it did not look nice at all as the paint went all blotchy on her. So when I got back I gave her a coat of pearl intereferenc gold colour. and for flowers etc some paint. When I got back I re painted her top and the skirt She changed immediately for the better. So here she is......

    Shashi, I swear I'm going to get you some VERY STRONG GLASSES because you are not seeing so well these days. What I see when I look at this piece is a VERY gorgeous and creative doll! The pearlescent look is especially stunning & I ALWAYS adore your faces! You have a distinctive & beautiful style all your own! LOVE HER!

    Bravo Shashi! I don't know how she looked before, but she looks smashing with the final paint and embellishing you did. And I love the water coor painting you did in the previous entry. My, but your artistic talents are positively blooming!
