This past weekend our doll club was lucky enough to be able to have Pearl Moon from Australia teach for a weekend. Pearl is a phenominal fiber artist and fabulous sculptor who displays her textiles on the doll form. She taught us as many techniques as she could in a weekend. We worked from nine in the morning until abouth midnight both days!!! We were on "creative overload" !!!! but we just couldnt stop working!!!
Most of the work was Free motion machining using different techniques with collaged fabric, fiber, paper, paints, foils and even sewing into "nothingness" ! What looked crazy in the beginning became beautiful works of fabric art for every student! It was an amazing weekend....and we even got a few extra days with pearl to shop for more "ART" stuff...and play with clay and stamps....
Also, we had a short visit from Gloria Winer ! Gloria (GLOWIE) brought her latest "Male form" doll.....he was fantastic!!!!
After the weekend was over ... I really felt fulfilled and thanked Pearl for the wonderful gift that she gave to all of us!
