DOLL TRADE AND WIP





This is "Beth" she is for Dag's quarterly challenge, "what is dark to you" the Doll is call Silently Sad and she has slit wrists:( So many young adults suffer from deep depression to the point where suicide seems the only way out and to me this is DARK. Beth suffers silently. She is finished now and I will be posting pictures of her probably tomorrow of the next day.









Lucky Lucky me again!!! Essie and I have done a trade and this is the magnificent Sacajawea, the doll Essie made for ME:) I just love her, she is beautiful and unusual and I am sooooo lucky to have her in my collection! Thank - you Es for my amazing doll and I hope Clarice arrives to you safely soon. Please stop my Esther's blog and check out her wicked cool dolls!!

I hope Clarice gets there soon and safe:)

Deep depression is indeep sad and dark, who ever really know how some one can be so sad as to take their own life and most often it is silently with out warning:(
I hope not to offend any one with my little sad Beth but his is dark to me:(

I think you've captured silent sadness in her face ... and that was before she was even done!! can't wait to see her finished.

Congratulations on a wonderful trade. :)

Silent Sadness is a very poignant and timely piece which does illustrate the terrible tragedy of suicide. So many suicide victims friends and family are sadly unaware until this terrible event hits them.

I love the piece Essie made for you...it is fabulous!

Thanks Michelle, for some reason sad faces come easyer to me?? She does indeed look sad. I am finished her and will be posting photos once I get some good ones.
Thank you Sue for the kind words and suicide is such a difficult thing for the people who are left behimd to deal with. I am sure always wondering why and if they could of helped. This is dark to me.

I am sooo lucky to have my very own Esther doll:) lucky lucky me!!
She is awesome in person, it is always so difficult to capute the spirit in a doll in a photo.
She is Beautiful and I love her:)
