Black Swan

Have you seen the movie yet? Well you should because it is awesome. Spoiler alert: It is also bat-shit crazy. But I like that kind of movie so... Anyways wanna see what I have been working on in honor of this film? Sure you do:

 Yep! Black Swan dolls! Let the nerd fest begin. Actually I was super into doll  making a little over a year ago and then I just stopped suddenly. Well now I am back to it and I am enjoying the process. All the materials for the dolls were things that I had in my house.
 The White Swan or 'good Nina' is light, ethereal, lovely, innocent. Perfection.

But underneath all that loveliness and talent lurks something darker. 
 Black Swan! Aka 'bad Nina'. Sure is it crazy to actually turn into a black swan when you are just a ballerina? Perhaps. But oh it was fun to watch it go down.


 Two peas in a pod.

I am thinking about perhaps doing other female leads from my favorite movies. Hmm.

  2. Well if you are interested in purchasing this pair I can create a reserved listing for you through my etsy shop! They would be $40 each or $75 for both. They are each approx. 25" long, handmade using new and recycled materials and they both have hand-painted faces. Let me know if you are interested in one or both.
