A New Doll Arrived

She is a  Resinsoul 42cm in Sky Blue resin. I intend to paint her myself to look like she belongs in these photos.

A Change is as Good as a Holiday!

So they say. Do you ever get bored with looking at your own blog? I do and the more I looked at mine, I felt it was time for a change. So today I changed it, which is easy to do with Blogger. With the way I have been feeling lately, I may change it back, or I may design a new one . . . who knows???

Usually when I get this itchy, unsettled, can't concentrate on any one thing, I have a storm brewing in my head. Which means there's a creation coming shortly . . . hmmm, maybe it was the movie I watched again that did it? What do I mean maybe? Of course it was!!

I first saw Avatar in 3D at the cinema when it was released, I was in awe. It was the only time I have been to the movies with hubby that we never spoke a word to each other all the way through. I have watched it several times since on DVD and we've also been to see the sequel, which I found just as inspiring.

Watching it again was the perfect motivation for me to order a Resinsoul Mei in Sky Blue resin. I didn't order her with a faceup as I normally would, because I want to create my own version of a Na'vi woman. Someone created from my own imagination, not simply a recreation of those I saw on the screen.

I have previously spoken about ordering Mei on my other blog, and thought I could put the idea on the back burner until she arrived. That however, is not the case and I can't help thinking about what I want to do. Mind you, finding a great selection of digital backdrops on Etsy hasn't helped calm my mind one bit.

If anything, it's made me worse, and I can't wait to get started. Though I may be able to settle myself by doing a few preliminary sketches . . . sometimes putting pencils to paper helps. At the very least it will occupy some time whilst I wait for Mei to be delivered.

Wish me luck, I'll be back in a few days.
