Tabula Rasa Dolls


This new plan is shaping up. The idea is to make pretty plain dolls that are human-ish in form, that can then be dressed up to be anything a person might like. I plan to offer two possibilities with each doll-- a sedate and traditional day-job choice (like fisherman, secretary, systems analyst, farmer, construction worker, middle manager) and an exciting "by night" choice (like performer in Carnivale, pirate, ninja, luchador).

My first T.R. doll is going to be a fisherman (I think) and a Luchador ( I know). . . going by the name of La Leche! because nothing could be cuter or more benign than being called "The Milk!" But he will still, of course, be muy macho!

Here he is in luchador mask. Cape and possible sequins, plus alternate outfit coming soon!

New Tack


So, I'm thinking about trying something newish. For my last 'pillar/rider combo, the rider made me very very happy. I liked his simplicity and the ability to dress him. And I'm thinking about making a "tabula rasa" set of people-ish dolls that I can gussy up in fun ways.

Here's my first t.r. What will he become?
