Fairy Dolls

THE FAIRIES OF OAK TREE HAVEN

 I've been really into the fairy craze, crafting OOAK Fairy dolls, made a miniature  Oak Tree Home to house them and painting pictures of fairies as well.  Here are drawings of some of the handmade fairy dolls I've made.  I will post all the dolls and paintings here soon.

My First Fairies

Luna: My First Fairy

 

Sculpted of metallic silver polymer clay about 12 to 14 years ago (1999 or 2000).  I do apologize, the pictures are so poor, but at the time I had no knowledge of and gave no attention to image quality and I am just grateful to have found these pictures of her on an old hard drive.

     

She was lumpy, bumpy, anatomically disproportioned, and her facial features were, to say the least, homely. Her hair and wings were from white feathers. Her dress was made of a white satin slipper, she held a large round white pearlescent bead in her hand to represent the moon, and sported rhinestones for eyes. I suspended her from silver thread so she looked as if she were flying.  I have no idea what happened to her. I regret not saving her and am grateful to have discovered even these poor photographs. I continue to hope I will locate her eventually in some old boxes or at least run across some better pictures someday.

I believe in Fairies…I do….I do believe in Fairies.~ Peter Pan

I started making fairy figurines about 12 years ago. After Luna, the moon fairy,  my second fairy sculpted approximately 6 years ago was Verda an artsy garden fairy, she was created from glue sticks and fabric to be a model for a painting that was forming in my head.

Verda: a tree fairy

09/29/2013 by Artsynesse    

About 7 years ago I attempted a second fairy figurine. I had this image in my head that I was trying to flesh out and paint. Verda was formed of paper mache and glue sticks, she was painted green with acrylic then hot glue sticks were dripped over the paint to create tree texture. Silk leaves were her palette and fairy wings and an artificial plant stamen was the paintbrush. In my original concept she wore an acorn beanie and a sheer pinafore.

Oak Tree House

Fairy Haven is on Display in the Fairy Garden at M. L. King Jr. Preschool in south Phoenix, AZ

“Quiet and you might hear!” “Elee ansana oogolo billii”, sounds just like chimes tinkling in the wind. If the words could be seen they would be in rainbow colored wisps of air that whisper “Hello, don’t be frightened please. Followed by “Won sanasaa hulu hah” (“I come to warn you, Earth is overburdened, and she is dying.”) But few can hear these little sprites,

Fairies are blessed with the gifts of creativity, color, music, dance, prose, and magic. They bloomed just as Chaos began stirring the Cosmos. When Gaia blossomed, all brown, soft, and glittery, smelling like cocoa butter, her twin brothers Cosmos and Chaos knew she had very special gifts and would someday need them all.

Gaia lives on a tiny hillside on Unicorn Isle in an enchanted Oak Tree near the gardens of Hyacinth the florist, a flower fairy.
Hopefully my Fairies will warm your heart and connect you to the magic of creativity. Share it with your child, grandchild, or the kindergartener down the street and make some magic of your own.
