Picture of the Week Award ~ April 5, 2009

Magda

This week's award goes to Dan Lee. Dan is a multi-talented doll artist who re-roots, re-paints and sews! Yes, he does it all and he does it good! This image attracted me immediately for it's composition, color and the soft focus.

You can see more of Dan's fabulous work at his website "Wide Eyed Girls" http://www.wideeyedgirls.com/

Picture of the Week Award (March 29, 2009)

A new weekly feature on my blog is to showcase a photo from another doll collector which I think is special. Browsing on Prego, I found the following photo taken by Vicky in Hawaii. I've never seen dolls pictured taking their own photo. It's clever and so well done. The composition and lighting are excellent! The dolls are Tonner's Jac and Sean.

Congratulations, Vicky!
