It has been one of my dreams/goals to teach at an art retreat. This year, Art and Soul brought that dream to life: I taught two classes at Art & Soul!!!
I was so impressed by my students! We had so much fun and they did such a great job. Take a look at the works in progress from The Kid Inside You class:
By the end of the class most of the dolls were nearly completed, and aren't they wonderful!
Tere, Anne, Mary, Stephanie, Carri, Karen, Wendy, Melinda, Sally, and Janet - it was such a pleasure working and playing with all of you!!!

Students at work, stitching, stuffing and having a Charlie Chaplin moment with tiny legs! |
Dolls with the first layer of paper clay go into the dehydrator, reminding one student of Emperor Qin Shi Huang Di's terra cotta soldiers. |
Look how they magically came out of the dehydrator! As you can see, everyone LOVED playing with the Creative Paperclay! |
A lovely sculpt, ready to paint! |

Painting and costuming - these dolls are really coming to life! I love how the small details can really change the look of a doll. |
Lining up for the photo shoot. |
