The handcrafted art dolls by Danita have beautiful sculpted faces in paperclay and luminous eyes that appear to be alive. Each one of her dolls is unique and has a cheerful personality, and her handmade clothes and accessories make them even more special and one of a kind work of art.
Everything is perfect on this art doll, the mixed media techniques I used to paint the doll face and her paper clay sculpted face are the same ones I use on my paintings, so it's like I took one of my Danita original art and turned into a real girl.
I wanted to make a doll that looked like a little girl without it looking infantile, it was kind of a trip down to memory lane for my childhood, and on this paper clay and fabric art doll I found the inspiration I was looking for.
She is all dressed up for a party, with a gift in one hand, a cake in the other and a red paper mache balloon that floats from her hand. The effect of her being a little girl is accentuated by how I made her bright blown glass eyes and dressed her in a colorful handmade dress with blue and red flowers and her party hat with a pompom on top. And did you see her boots? They are made from resin I pour on vintage molds from early 20th century and then hand paint each one to be the perfect match for her outfit.
Her little legs are hanging from a chair too tall for her, just like when I was a kid and I was invited to a party but I had to wait to get there, or maybe sit on the host's living room while the party started.
And now, she is looking for a forever home where she can attend tea and birthday parties with you. She will be delighted to be your guest, eat cake, open gifts and have lots of fun.
*Please note that the chair and cake are not included with this doll. The rest of the accessories will go with your beautiful adoptable art doll by Danita.
