About the Figurine:
He is a one of a kind figure (OOAK).
Sculpt from polymer clay over a sturdy wire armature.
His skin tone is not painted.
Rather, it is the clays true appearance.
Only his features have been lightly hand painted and skin lightly blushed.
His eyes are green and lips are neutral color, with just a hint of rosey cheeks.
Long pointed ears poke out from beneath his shaggy styled brown mohair.

About the Wings:
A most impressive set of fine Green with Copper rubbed Gold wings
which are also handcrafted from hand dyed fabric.
Lightly sprinkled with opalescent glitter.
Fantastic fancy feathers in amber and royal blue
accent his wings in the front and soft white down feathers at the back.

About the Costume:
He is wearing a gauze sage green tunic, with 2 silver buttons.
Shredded "grass", dried vanilla and flowers accent his sleeves and shoulders.
He also is wearing chocolate brown cotton knickers with rough edges.
Around his waist is a natural jute belt with a dangling small pine cone and dried leaves.
Ontop his head is a warm brown suede cap, tied with black thread and jewel tone green and blue iridescent beads.
Interestingly assembled dried flowers and seeds create his outdoor attire!

Authentication:
Each original design Art Doll I create comes with a photo certificate of authenticity.
Each piece is also numbered hand signed by me.
And while each One of a kind doll has its own personality, they are often part of a series of fairy folk.
It is in this way that additional dolls may beaded to your fairy collection and retain
a consistant quality and wonderful peek into a wonderfully enchanted world!

About My Dolls:
My fairies and mermaids have been sold to collectors around the world.
Doll Art Collectors first recognizedmy work after a 2002
"Dolls Award of Excellence Nomination",
For my portrait doll based on the John William Waterhouse Painting "Ophelia",
in the popular Dolls Magazine published by Jones Publishing,Inc.
Over 600 One of a Kind pieces have found new homes from 2002-present!
These pieces all begin as clay over a strong wire armature.
Most of the figures are 3-6 inches in height.
A careful attention to the figures gesture, expression, choice of costuming and
of course generous amounts oflovely embellishments, ensure each is a whimsical
addition to fantasy collection!
These fairies are all One of a Kinds, I do not use a doll mold of any kind.
These pieces are fragile and intended as an indoor display only.
They can be cleaned with a damp cloth.
It is best to keep in a curio cabinet or protective doll display.
