Linda was curious about the dolls. here are the two, beside the grass person, that i kept:
kneeling and seated. both have armatures. i didn't keep these two because they were particularly good, but because for whatever reason, i loved them a lot. many of the faces of others were more refined, "better", but from these, you get the idea. i sold many many of them over some years. some were even life size. for a while, some had "masks" of birds…hawks and of coyote. most were wall hanging figures…dancing women, flying women, dreaming women, running woman, women grieving, women singing, praying, holding things, small animals, banners, flags, bowls. some were non gender…my favorite one like that had a small bird perched on it's head. there were many Wind figures, young wind, Women wind and obviously male figures, Wind as lover.
and then, it just became harder and harder for me to want to deal with selling them. with packing them up and sending them to different places. and life in general became almost more than i could deal with then, so i just quit making them. when my life became my own again, i tried to begin again but it just wouldn't happen. and i realized that enough had changed. that i was no longer able to focus on a central figure, that the world that the figure "lived" in was of equal or more interest to me. the being and the being's world.
and this was how it was until Spirit Cloth.
