There is no need to bring an apple
to the teacher every day. Charlotte is already the teacher’s pet.
|
 |
With her sweet expression and
soulful eyes, she’s won the teacher’s heart.
|
|
Charlotte sits in the back row of the
classroom, her little heart beating loudly.
|
 |
She hopes she spells all the words
correctly on the big spelling test.
|
 |
Most of all, she hopes the teacher
likes her.
|
 |
Charlotte is wearing a pale peach dress
with a blue collar and cuffs, and a blue sash that ties in a big bow at the
back. A delicate pattern of little blue flowers and green leaves encircles the
bottom of the skirt, and tiers of ivory petticoats show beneath the hemline.
The very serious Charlotte holds a big red apple with a stem
and a single green leaf.
|
 |
Charlotte is an original one-of-a-kind work
of art, and she is meant for display only. No molds are ever used in my work.
She and her apple are hand sculpted from paperclay, and entirely hand painted
using acrylic paints.
|
 |
Charlotte is signed and dated, and sealed
with matte varnish for protection and preservation. She rests firmly on a
turned wooden base that is stained and sealed in golden oak.
|
 |
Charlotte stands 5 ¾ inches tall.

Many
hours go into the making of
each of my dolls. I strongly believe in fine craftsmanship and
artistry,
and I pay great attention to small details. Each doll is a
unique work of
art, and I am able to produce them in only a very limited number. I do
my best
to create little dolls with big personalities because that is what I
love to
do.
