Gretchen Limawood Doll

Signed "Glenda, The Ginger Herb Woman" 2012

Combined natural fibers in the hair as well as the hand Knit or hand dyed clothing. Individually sculpted and painted each face using Sculpey inlaid with beads, pearls or pieces of turquoise. 

She first makes a sketch from an idea, then a rough prototype. A final pattern for a piece is then cut from muslin. Each individual doll is different depending on the fabrics used to decorate it.
