The base of the doll is the gourd we colored. In addition, my doll has a "scrying bowl" made of the very top portion of the gourd. I knew what I wanted to do with it, but Jean is the one that figured the way to achieve what I wanted - actually, she achieved WAY more than what I thought possible.
The resin faces we used were provided; Jean's "Scarlett" mold was used to make the faces. The body, arms, and neck are sewn, gessoed, and decorated. I'm showing both outdoor and light cube photos, because the coloring of the outdoor photo - though more accurate - has distracting things going on in the background! The facial coloring doesn't contrast quite as much as it appears in the light cube photo.

Did you have to make the bird as well?
Beautiful doll. I know you had lots of fun in Jean & Sherry's class.
I love her serene face and those feathers. She looks like she was a lot of fun to make.
Oh she is just lovely - the colors, textures and details are wonderful
Oh Sue, she is just beautiful!
Shashi, no, I bought the bird in a bin at Michael's Crafts but spruced it up with a bit of Pearl Ex and sealer.
It truly was a lovely, calm class. I've loved every class I've taken with the fantastic Bernard/Goshon duo.
Sue, she is lovely. You worked very hard after getting home! I have redone my body and about to embellish.
Wow Sue she is gorgeous sure have seen you grow and love the bowl. You should be proud of yourself girl!
