The biggest entertainment and joy of this Old Coot's life is creating art. Here, I work on a Solstice watercolor. #entertainment #joy #art #artwork #painting #drawing #watercolor #watercolorpainting #artist #air #artistinresidence #wintersolstice #solstice #workingartist #dogs

A little about me! I've been on here for awhile, but I don't know if I've ever done intro. I have been a photographer for over 30 years. I majored in art with an emphasis in photography. But was a photo editor for years. About 15 years ago, I decided to become a professional photographer. I worked for several companies as a product photographer. Now, I am attempting to pursue my dream of being a working artist. Thanks for reading! #WorkingArtist #ArtPhotography #LetsMakeArt

The third prototype is made with 100% wool felt. The wiring method in the arms and legs has been figured-out. I have just a few pattern tweaks to make. Because she's not standing on her own. #artdoll #dollmaker #handmade #handsewn #woolfelt #originalpattern #originaldesign #workingartist #smallartbusiness

This piece is equal parts "this went right" and "that went wrong". On to prototype #3. #handmadeart #Dollart #artdoll #ooakdoll #recycledArt #felt #workingartist #originalpattern

Hmmm...I wonder what they're thinking about? [Something I put together yesterday for which I have plans.] #workingartist #smallartbusiness #dollmaker #artdolls #dollwithoutaface #felt #handmade #originalart

Artemis and Cosima are now completely sewn together! On to clothing design and creation! #artdoll #dollartist #embroidery #handsewn #workingartist #smallartbusiness #ooak #felt

The cheek embroidery on Artemis is complete. I've also added some lid colour around each of their eyes. I was so tired of a single thread satin stitch that a split stitch sounded fun. So that's what I used around the eyes. #dollartist #artdoll #embroidery #felt #handmadedoll #softsculpture #ooak #workingartist #smallartbusiness

Cosima has some much fancier cheeks this morning! #artdoll #dollartist #embroidery #handmade #workingartist #smallartbusiness

The green twin is all together, except the head. She's been given a name too, Artemis! I like how the second colour of green embroidery turned out. It will be strange to cover up a lot of it with clothing. #handmade #handsewn #embroidery #artdoll #dollartist #smallartbusiness #workingartist

I'm almost finished with the embroidery work on the arms and legs for the dolls I'm currently working on. I would like to get the torso, arms, and legs together by this evening. #dollartist #artdoll #embroidery #woolfelt #originaldesign #smallartbusiness #workingartist

I got the arms and legs together yesterday. Then I started working on the embroidery! #dollartist #artdoll #woolfelt #embroidery #handsewing #workingartist #smallartbusiness

I kept telling myself that eyebrows need to be cousins, not twins, while I stitched them down to these (as yet to be named) dolls. Who are, in fact long lost twins. #handmade #artdoll #woolfelt #embroidery #applique #ooakart #workingartist #smallartbusiness

I honestly just wanted to make some small adjustments to my 30 cm doll pattern, and I suddenly find myself appliquing pink cheeks onto doll faces. Guess I'll just go with it. #dollmaker #artdoll #woolfelt #embroidery #workingartist #smallartbusiness

Everyone has a heart with the first letter of their name on it! It's been a tough few months. I haven't sold a single piece in 58 days. If you know someone who you think might like my work, please let them know about me! https://www.katiekinsman.com/

I've gotten the last two doll arms and legs almost completed. What you see on almost all of the arms and legs of all six dolls is just the beginning. #dayofthedead #artdoll #embroidery #ooakdoll #workingartist #smallartbusiness #felt #applique

More embroidered bones! I hope to have the remaining sets of arms and legs completed today. #emboidery #embroiderystitches #artdoll #dollmaker #felt #applique #workingartist #ooakart

I added some embroidery to the bones on the light green and coral doll arms and legs. The reason I don't edge these bones in a similar way as the skull faces, is because when stuffed, the edging stitches (stem stitch) will begin to pull away from the edge of the white bone. I don't like how it looks. So, I do something that's in the same colour, but in a different place, embroidery-wise. #handmade #felt #embroidery #ooakart #artdoll #originalpattern #smallartbusiness #workingartist

I completed the remaining four sets of arms and legs for the Day of the Dead themed dolls. Yay! #handmade #felt #applique #ooakdoll #artdoll #originalpattern #workingartist #smallartbusiness

What happens when an artist finds something on sale! Visit my blog to read about what I did with 2 dozen long stem roses! https://sharonpopek.com/when-roses-go-on-sale/ #AYearForArt #RoseArt #FlowerPower #WorkingArtist

Two days of cleaning and organizing in my Midden have been completed. There's still work to do, but it's better than before! I even changed the background on my computer! Its a Maija Kumpulainen-Sokke now instead of a Hilma af Klint #workspace #artstudio #workingartist

I wouldn't handle how much I disliked the skirt, as well as the bead and sequin work on this doll I named Ilka. What else could I do? I spent 40 minutes carefully ripping out the sloppy, gross bead and sequin work. Then I ordered som nylon beading thread. Until it arrives, Ilka will just have to be starkers. #artdoll #handmade #woolpompom #beads #sequins #workingartist

This is Rory! I think she needs a few more hair bows. #artdolls #handmade #wool #felt #beads #sequins #originalpainting #workingartist #smallartbusiness

I've finished this little doll yesterday. She's been given a name too! Gwen! There are a few small, fiddly things I want to do yet. Gwen won't be going into my shop. I don't think my heart could handle her languishing, unsold in my shop right now. #workingartist #wool #embroideryart #handmade #originaldesign #originalpattern #artdoll #smallartbusiness #beads #sequins
