This is her first snow,
and Millicent is as patient as she is watchful.
|
 |
| The snowball she made is
feeling very cold in her paw, and she hopes Tommy shows up soon. |
|
|
| In
their one room schoolhouse, Tommy is the boy who sits behind her and
teases her all the time. When the teacher isn't looking, he
yanks her whiskers, and dips the tip of her tail into his inkwell.
Then he calls her "Silly Millie". |
 |
|
Tommy
will come around
the corner soon. He'll walk right past her like he doesn't
even see her. Then WHAP, he'll get a snowball right
in the back of his head. Millicent will say "That's for you,
Tommy Salami!" The snow will go down his neck, and he'll
squeal and run home to his mama.

 |
| Millicent
smiles to herself. Her little paw tightens on the snowball
and her yellow eyes get even brighter. Here comes Tommy now! |
 |
| Millicent
is a young tuxedo
kitty with white paws, a white tip on her tail, and a little black
patch on her chin. Her yellow eyes are alert and full of
mischief. She wears a maroon Victorian jacket, trimmed with
gold braid and brass buttons. Her skirt is vertically striped
with green, gold, maroon, and gray, and a green striped scarf is
wrapped around her neck and tucked into her jacket. Lots of
white petticoats can be seen below her skirt. |
 |
 |
| I
hand sculpted Millicent from paperclay, and used stiffened cotton
thread for her whiskers. She is an original one-of-a-kind
work of art, and is meant for display only. No molds are ever
used in my work. |
 |
 |
| Millicent
is completely hand painted with acrylic paints, then 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, and she stands 7 1/4 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. |
