This is an handmade textile artwok inspired by folk art dolls.
It represents a little character holding a fox in her arms.

The art doll is made from textiles dyed and stained in tea. Her clothes are not removable and they are made from a selection of new and upcycled fabrics.
The face of the little character is pretty minimalist. I have shaped the idea of a nose and she has a black glass eye. I believe that she is still rather expressive, what you see in her will probably depends on who is watching her.
Her hair is made from a long string of light pink felting wool. She has a few flowers on her left side.
Her dress is made from an upcycled pink toddler dress. Her skirt is made from tea dyed calico with many, many embroidery stitches, a few patches and a few holes.
The stitches are mostly from a beautiful orange/red embroidery floss.
In her arms she holds a friendly fox. The little fox is made from painted fabric with a few black stitches on the feet and nose.

At the back, she is signed and i have added a little loop of fabric so she can be displayed on your walls. She cannot stand, neither can she sit.
She measures approximately 22cm or 8.6 inches.

Please, see picture with the hand to get an idea of her size.

This is not a toy.
Keep away from direct sunlight and from any humidity/wetness source.

As a doll maker inspired by folk art dolls, I want to say that the fabric fraying, the threads still showing or the way things are attached to each other are all voluntary processes. This is the way I find that my creations are beautiful. This how I feel they are unique and original. It shows their frailties, flaws and their strength altogether.
I am working with upcycled materials mostly.
