I love art dolls & these are some very impressive works. I feel inspired!
Hmmm, fascinating is one word for them :)
Thanks so much for linking to me. I only just started following your blog, and seeing my doll on here was a great surprise. It quite made my day. I really love your blog as well. Now, I too am inspired to get back to work on a doll I just started!
@CayoraRue Thanks so much. I look forward to seeing what you make next!
Dearest Kathryn,
