Two of the tutorials can be used to create ornaments for your holiday decorations.

I always find it calming to be working on a project in between the hustle and bustle of the holiday season.

Some of the Perks of teaching live doll making classes

I just love teaching doll making classes, both in person, and online!  I come across some of the nicest and most interesting people that way.  I also get to travel and do a bit of sightseeing when I go to different places to teach.
 
Indianapolis canal
During the class I taught in Indianapolis this fall I was hosted by the most lovely couple, Julie & Ron Gausvik.
Not only did they welcome me into their beautiful home while I was there to teach they also took me on a tour of the local sights during my stay.

These are some more of the lovely dolls that grace Julie & Ron’s home.

They even took me to the Indianapolis Canal where I was able to do some plein air painting!  This is the painting I did there and the unfinished one is what I am working on from it in my studio.

They also took me to see the Indianapolis String Quartet which was absolutely wonderful.  Of course I had to do some sketching of the String Quartet on my program.  This is a sketch of them that I completed when I got home.

And if you don't want to wait until spring, I just put my Flower Faeries E-class Step by step photo tutorial in my shop.  They were inspired by fall colors.

Pre-Halloween Mischief

Bridgette and Mistique by Marla L. Niederer with their Absinthe tea set by Rhissanna Collins

Bridgette and Mistique have been getting themselves into some pre-Halloween mischief with the Absinthe tea set made by Rhissanna Collins that I bought from her quite some time ago.  Isn’t the tea set just lovely?


I hope you enjoy a delightful Halloween!
