The lovely Meadow was created using a 11.5 inch Barbie Fashionista doll by Mattel. These gorgeous little girls have multiple areas of articulation... including a bendy torso and wrists. This makes them perfect for diverse poses! I love working with them! Meadow has had all her factory paint removed and been given a complete new repaint. Her original hair was also completely removed and I gave her a new 'do' in black tibetan mohair. She was then costumed in a rather 'saucy' little outfit and given delicate wings which are wired and gently posable. I also created a custom Woodland base for her to sit on. It features a lovely little treestump covered in mosses, on which she coyly sits! I hope you like her! If anyone is interested in more photos or visiting her auction, you will find the link here on my website... [link]
I am not affiliated with the Mattel company! I simply use their gorgeous dolls as a canvas/base for my own artistic expression!
The wings are actually made using two sheets of self laminate sheets. The wires and decorative elements are sandwiched in between.
