"Master Doll Maker Certificate"



It has been an exciting few weeks for me! I have recently returned from the United States with my "Masters Doll Makers Certificate", and couldn't be more pleased.



I was chosen in June to attend the Johnston Original Artdolls Academy, and successfully completed the requirments for the Master Sculpting Course there, and recieved my Certificate.



At the Advanced course in June I completed an 18" Art Doll of a Norwegian Sami Grandma, and so at the Masters course I decided to work on an 11" baby sculpt. I had made many miniature babies over the years, but had never tackled a larger version, and I must say it was a lot of fun to sculpt. I met many wonderful people at the course, and look forward to seeing them again in the future at Doll shows and other events.



Below is a picture of my completed "Baby Sculpt", I have named Benjamin .







I have since completed another 11" baby sculpt and will be listing it on Magnolia Lane Doll Auction site. I will be offering more of these adorable little babies for sale , so please check out my auctions there, and if you would like to place and order for an Art Doll, or Baby Doll, I would love to hear from you.
