WIP Large 24 inch Wooden Queen Anne inspired Doll
I started carving a large 24 inch wooden doll. I originally was going to use this wood body for a sculpted paper clay head. I couldn't bring myself to put a clay head on this wooden body. Especially after I carved the legs. I like carving large dolls. At least I am off to a great start. It takes a bit of trial and error to come up with a good pattern.
