Mad little dolls

Found this little cutie here and there's loads more where she came from, well worth a look . I find it hard to pick a favourite but this one is definitely a bit mad, and I love a bit of madness!

Little Red Riding Hood


This is my Illustration Friday, this weeks topic is "red".
As a kid I always thought Little Red Riding Hood must have been a bit daft not to have realised that the wolf was not her Granny the moment she saw him, even though he was heavily disguised in a nightgown and cap! So here she is in all her goofiness, "tum-tee-tum...."

Bird brains!








Just to give you a rough idea of their size, George ia approximately 12" and Stanley stands a proud 20", and I made them out of felt and beautiful woven wool by Alexanders of Scotland.

Arum Lilies


These lilies are one of my favourite subjects to work with. Their combination of strength and delicacy will never cease to inspire me.
