“Vera Badley”
As you probably know
“Badley” is my feeble attempt at play on words. It’s not misspelled.

"Shiva Blue" Shiva is a
god of Hinduism. Traditionally Shiva is “the Destroyer.” In the truth it
destroys to construct something new, thus, prefers to call it
"transforming or renovator." The trident that it appears in photo is the Trishula. It is the weapon that destroys the ignorance in the human
beings.

"Maisy, the
Flapper" I kept her the size of the original pattern which was a
challenge for me. I am used to working with larger dolls.

"Lady Yunhwa"
This sad lady was the
true love of the first king of unified Korea, Emperor Wang Guhn.
She was married off to a former Emperor who fell in love with her before
Wang Guhn rose to the throne. She was tortured for her love and
remains an honored figure in Korean folklore to this day.

“Finding My Center”
The piece grew out of
my struggle this past year to find a solid center in my life. The doll
is created in two halves to show my divided self as I try to move
forward and fashion a new life and still long to be with Spence as our
life was. The quilted background represents my attempt to bring a
measure of order out of a difficult year of grief.
