Blue People Dolls new and revisited...

  Some of you will remember the story of the "Blue People of Troublesome Creek" I blogged about in 2010. They were the inspiration for a few paintings and dolls. I have painted and made a few dolls along the way. But as usual inspiration took me along another path and I had put the Blue People on the back burner.  A follower asked me about them so I decided to repost some of the past picks and new ones of some I have in the works, I keep meaning to get back to them with gusto but inevitably something else pulls at me.

Pentecostal Preacher, The chicken raiser and Ruby....

 I will at sometime make more because they are such a part of me. But for now they just sit and watch me do other things. Maybe they will start to speak louder and get my undivided attention soon.

He or she? only time will tell.

Trailer Trash Thelma

Finally finished " Trailer Trash Thelma" I added the smoke trail (Thanks Gina) just what she needed to feel complete. I love her as she has roots in my past on many levels. Thelma was my grandmothers name but she was a far cry from Traler Trash Thelma. My grandmother was a staunch Baptist tee totaler. No drinkin, smoking,dancing or card playing. Her grandkids adored her. Not sure when she will be up for sale but soon I hope. It will be hard to let her go.
