Blue Doll

This is my Blue colour doll that I made for my doll club exhibition. The main theme of the display dolls is rainbow colour dolls. All the members were asked to make a doll from one of the colours of the rainbow. I got the blue colour so here she is. Her body is all cloth, decoupaged and soft sculpted. Since blue colour is associated with many moods I did tried to combine all the shades of blue. Blue is for bright skies, deep oceans, deep deep shades of night embedded with bright stars. Blue also is associated with sadness. I hope all that can be seen in her. She holds a rose in her hand. It could be, it was given to her by a dear friend or she could be just thinking of someone and wears her heart on her sleeve. You maybe able to see the heart on her sleeve if you look carefully. But her face tells me she is thinking of a happy moment or dreaming of something nice. Well I leave it to you to decide. To me she looks like an opera singer:)

PS. I do not know why there is so much colour variations in the pictures even though I took them all in the same setting. Maybe my camera is at fault. I would say the first and the last pictures are more the actual colour of the doll. Her skin tone is light blue.

    I read where your mom isn't doing well. I empathize with you - never an easy situation when one's mother is ill. I hope she recovers soon.
