Loxie is a beautiful Red Fox. She is greatly
admired, yet seldom seen.
|
 |
 |
|
Loxie glides through
the woods, her forest green dress blending in with the ferns that cover the
forest floor.
|

|
|
She doesn’t stay
still for very long. If you look away for a moment, when you look back she may
have vanished.
|
 |
 |
Now and then, Loxie
ventures out into the meadow. As she is a redhead, she always wears her straw
hat in the bright sunshine.
|
 |
|
Loxie is an original
one-of-a-kind work of art and is meant for display only. No molds are ever used
in my work. She and her hat are hand sculpted from paperclay, and she is
entirely hand painted using acrylic paints.

Loxie’s whiskers are
made from stiffened cotton thread. Her old-fashioned green dress has tiny gold
flowers, with gold buttons and gold bands around the cuffs. She wears a pale
green apron that ties in a big bow in the back. Her fluffy tail emerges from
the white petticoats that can be seen below her dress.
|
 |
|
Loxie is signed and
dated and sealed with matte varnish for protection and preservation. She rests
firmly on a turned wooden base that is stained and sealed in golden oak. Loxie
stands 7 ½ inches tall.

Many
hours go into the making of each of my dolls. I strongly believe in fine craftsmanship and artistry, and
I pay great
attention to small details. Each
doll is
a unique work of art, and I am able to produce them in only a very
limited
number. I do my
best to create
little dolls with big personalities because that is what I love to do.
