Beaded Art Dolls

My passion in life is beads and beading. After that it is paper arts.... pretty much all of them.
My inspiration came from well known bead artist Megan Noel. Her work is legendary, in my opinion anyway, in the art doll community.

My first doll was done in a black palette and unfortunately she was sold before I could get, or thought of getting photos of her. There have been a lot of dolls since then, all but one sold. My favourite, I think was The Shaman. A wonderful doll to create. Done mostly in wood, bone with many embellisments. He is seen here. This is the one sale I deeply regret. Over the past couple of years I have collecting the components to make another one but there can only be one Shaman. The next will be different but hopefully just as beautiful and satisfying as the first.
