Beach Comber

I am creating an art doll that will be called Beach Comber. I am collecting and creating various sea shapes, shells, pebbles, star fish, kelp, fish, and fibers so far. I've made the armature for the frame and now I'm working on the arms. It feels right to be making this special creature.

back from the beach

With a bag of beach rubble. Small flat round rocks for polymer clay bases, and bits of little drift wood twigs to work beads around. Small kelp "berries" for lack of a better word. I will experiment with them to see if dipping them in liquid pc will make them strong enough to stitch into bead work. NO I certainly didn't have way too many craft items collected already and of ourse I needed a bag or two more. (I wonder if I am going to be able to get my tongue out of my cheek or if it's permanently embedded.)
