| My Freckled Girl and hands Sculpted in Class "Ankie" style ..... |
I took a two day class in NY at Gwen and Doris Jackson's House. What an amazing experience...all the way around. I traveled with Heather Brauner...and as soon as we arrived at the Sisters' "huge" newly renovated house...I felt right at home....many sudents stayed in the many rooms on three floors ...Like one huge "Pajama Party" !!!
Then 2 days of working on a doll....I am truley amazed by what I learned and accomplished in that time!!! Something clicked for me upon meeting Ankie...her LOVE for the "doll" form and her undying energy was PURE POSITIVE INSPIRATION!!! I loved being with her and learning more stuff!!!! I purchased her book, and on the back cover....she has written....'Dollmaking, a never ending Story." WOW!!!! aint that the truth!!!?!!
well...when I arrived home...I took my doll head and hands and put them on the counter to admire what i had created...and along comes my most favorite cat in the universe, moon..and "Swats" the one hand...I watch in slow motion as it smashes down on the tile floor...ugh...4 fingers crack off! MOON!!!!!
But...amazingly..I used e6000 and holee!!!! they are stuck! I sanded and now will have to apply a little more paperclay!!! Just another one of life's Lessons!!!
