Fairies done & on eBay- Check. Custom order Shyann done-Check (well waiting for glue to dry in her head.) All babies shipped off-Check. This weeks winner of my blog give away sleeper shipped-Check.  Very productive September, very busy to say the least. Aww, I can take  a day off I think.

Halloween is right around the corner &  is so much fun for my entire family. My 5 year old has been asking for the past three months if it's October yet. He has been watching a certain Halloween Thomas the Tank Engine episode over and over lately and I look forward to October 1st so I can finally say- "Guess what? It's October! Yeaaaaaaa!!!"  Though that probably wont satisfy him since I know what his next question will be. "Is it Halloween Yet!?!"

Iv been working on a cool baby for the past 2 months that is almost finished. I'm very excited to post photos next week. I'm not sure how people will react. It's a secret for now...Can you guess? 

 

P.S- I simply adore your work Natalie Shau...Brilliant is an understatement....

Ray Ceasar, How Do I Love Thee?

"Kingdom"

 Ray Ceasar is brilliant. I'v been a fan of his work for many years. Each time I take the time to view his website, I end up going over every painting for what seems like forever. Captivating and inspiring to say the least. Since I was looking at some artwork tonight, I thought I would share with you.  The "Kingdom" is probably my favorite piece. Something about her face intrigues me.  I highly recommend taking a few minuets and look at his wonderful work.

If you live in the UK which I don't, there is an upcoming event below . I wish I could be there!

 

I'm With COCO..... Victorian Goth Baby

UPDATE: 5/7 Baby Coplin has been adopted. Thank you everyone who was watching & sent lovely e-mails about him! He will be going to his new home in the UK!

THANK YOU!

I opened up my e-mail box today with over 90 e-mails of Birthday wishes! Thank you so much to everyone who took the time to wish me a Happy Birthday today through e-mail, Facebook & phone calls! I turned the big 28! As I was searching for cake images on google, I came across this baby cake by Michelle Cakes located in the UK. That's some awesome art work right there! She won an award for it. I just spent a good amount of time looking through her unique portfolio.

 

Team Conan!

In celebration of my B-Day we are going to see Conan O'Brien  tomorrow night here in Arizona for his "The Legally Prohibited from Being Funny on Television Tour". I think he knows it's my birthday and decided to make a special trip just for me. O.k oooo.k, not really, but we are Team COCO all the way. We spent 4-5 nights a week with him in our homes. He makes me  laugh so hard I cry. Should be a.w.e.s.o.m.e!

Work In Progress! 

Here is the 3rd addition of my "Victorian Gothic Glam" series. I opened up a Etsy.com store a few days ago. Debating starting to sell VGG babies on over there with my other artwork pieces I am getting ready to present. I'll keep you posted. For now this little one will go up for auction on eBay I hope Sunday night 5/2. She still needs eyelashes and her finishing touches.

 "Trinity Grace" kit by Linda K. Smith is adorable!!! I love this kit so much. Iv been mastering my technique of "mottling" (you can see the best on the chest plate & cheeks). This little one will be finished in just a few days. Still needs a hand full of paint layers and detail around it's eyes and lips. Up for adoption on eBay when finished.

 
 Stayed tuned....

FOR SALE

SOLD: Currently this little man "Coplin" is up for adoption on eBay! He is not a very popular kit so you may not have seen him very often. 

 

Jayden kit Natalie Scholl

Oh my! Natalie Scholl showed off her newest creation "Jayden". The first 2 photos are of her actual sculpt and the bottom picture is of what her blank vinyl kits look like. I rarely pre-order kits these days. There are so many always coming out but there is no way I want to forget about this one.

I have so many kits to choose from each month. As a reborn artist I only have the time to make 4 or so babies each month, so I'm pretty picky. I sure wish I had the time to create them all though! 

What I look for in a kit is detail. Look at the detail on the hands and feet of this baby. Feet are my all time favorite part to work on. Amazingly realistic! From head to toe Natalie has made an unbelievable kit and I can't wait to get my hands on it when they come out this month. 

 

 This is a photo she added yesterday to her website of the blank vinyl prototype. Pretty baby even unpainted. Do you see the "soft spot" she sculpted on his head? Well back to working on my Sweet Stuff & Wee Yawns twins who also have some of the best sculpted detail I have ever worked on. :)

 

p.s... Happy Earth Day everyone!
