When I was teaching in China, I fell in love with their delicate porcelain dolls. Depicted in flowing robes, flowered hair, serene smiles, and finely wrought hands, they represent the special delicacy of the Chinese aesthetic. I purchased about 10 variations, mailed them home where they keep harmony among the rest of the Chinese statuary. I used watercolours and Inktense pencils over gesso. I plan to add more to this entry....updated to add stamped sentiment. I love carving stamps.
Wow Such a lovely painted spread Linda- can't believe I missed this- you lady is beautiful-")
