Over the Summer


Aunt Gladys, me & Mom

 

 



     Trying to catch up on my blog with just a brief look at this past summer. Mid-July is the twin's birthday, my Mom & Aunt. We went to P.F.Chang's again this year to celebrate.

     The end of July is ADAA, or All Dolls are Art Conference. I took a workshop with Angela Jarecki. The theme this year was World of Make-Believe and opening night we came as our favorite character.

All Dolls Are Art
I took a 3-day workshop at the All Dolls Are Art conference with Lauren Vlcek in July. This was the first year for the conference which is held in Austin at the end of July. Lauren's workshop was a Butterfly Doll. Here are pictures of my completed doll:

Fish Workshop
At the first of the summer, my friend, Ellen taught her very first workshop and she showed us how to create the fabulous fish. I really enjoyed this workshop and created 6 fish! I plan on making a mobile with them to hang in my studio. Aren't they fun?
