Siamese kitty on the way! This is “Bluebell” in progress, and, contrary to what you see here, she is already painted, dressed, ready and waiting for her official photo shoot. And…she has her own Siamese kitten!
I love Siamese cats and I just couldn’t wait to show her to you, even in her beginning stage. I am so excited about getting her photographed!
“Sigrid the Star Baby” is making her debut! Sigrid is a newly born star.
Sigrid is just learning about life in the universe.
Everything is new to her.
She looks from one planet to the next, observing moons, and galaxies, comets, and, of course, other stars.
But what Sigrid wants to find, more than anything, is someone to love her.
If you look very closely, you will see one little tear on Sigrid’s cheek.
Sigrid is an original one-of-a-kind work of art, created from my own design and pattern.
She is signed and dated.
Sigrid is entirely handmade. Her body is made of 100% cotton, and painted with acrylic paint. Her bottom is weighted so she can sit nicely while she looks around, and she is also jointed at her shoulders and hips, in case she gets tired and needs to lie down to take a nap.
Sigrid is approximately 8 1/2 inches tall when seated, and approximately 11 inches long when lying down.
Sigrid also comes with a hang tag. It is signed as well.The picture on his hang tag is “Moon and Star”, an original watercolor painting by me, Elizabeth Ruffing. It goes very nicely with Sigrid’s celestial turquoise blue onesie and her lovely gold stars.
Update: Sigrid the Star Baby has been adopted. Thank you!
Rosalie the red rose fairy is a handmade original, one-of-a-kind art doll, handmade and hand painted artist Max Bailey.
According to my grandmother, we had fairies to thank for all things beautiful on the earth. From her imagination (and from mine), here is Rosalie, the Red Rose Fairy.
In the spring, Rosalie flutters lightly through gardens like a butterfly, bending gracefully over the delicate buds of the red rose bushes, touching each with her rose-tipped wand to make them open.
Blue-eyed and raven-haired, she is dressed all in teal blue, with a cascade of roses, rosebuds, and leaves that flow down her body to her toes. The golden three-leaf motif at her neckline also encircles her wrists, and her colorful wings bear portraits of her favorite flower.
If this year, your red roses have elegant, exquisite, and heavenly blooms that sweetly perfume the air, it is very likely the enchanting Rosalie has paid your garden a visit.
Rosalie is 12 1/4 inches tall, and her wings measure 8 inches across. She is made from 100% cotton fabric which is sewn, stuffed, and completely hand-painted with acrylic paints. I quilted her wings and attached them separately. She holds a wand made from wire, with a rose at the tip that I created from ribbon.
There is a small loop in the back of Rosalie’s head, should you wish to hang her up. She can also sit in a chair or on a shelf, or stand with a doll stand. (Chair and doll stand not included.) She is signed and dated, and sealed with matte varnish for protection and preservation.
Rosalie is an original one-of-a-kind work of art, created from my own design and pattern. She is meant for display only.
Update: Rosalie has already been adopted. Thank you!
I’m pleased to announce the arrival of Patricia…Angel of Pansies! Pansies are among the oldest known garden flowers, and I like to think that over the years, some garden angels have been at work to create such beautiful blooms.
Patricia is one of these angels. When she picks a pansy from the garden, two more will bloom in its place.
Patricia is a true one-of-a-kind original work of art, created from my own design and pattern. She is made from 100% cotton fabric, which is sewn, stuffed, and completely hand-painted with acrylic paints. She comes with her own oval wood stand, oak-stained and finished.
Update: Patricia has already been adopted.
