Shelby Given I got better pictures of Shelby Given today! These really capture her soulful personality! This is a paperclay doll sculpted by me! she stands about 19" tall and the bottom of her dress is about 10" wide! I'm going to list her in my www.etsy.com/shop/clovermoondesigns right now! Her birdie is removable, she will come with the handmade bracelet she is holding. I also make the bracelet from vintage jewelry and a mix of beads! The bracelet has a lobster claw clasp and the beading style is rosary! Shelby will also come with her own story about asking and it Shall Be Given! This is a one of a kind paperclay doll which I created with my soul! #paperclaycreation #paperclaydoll #mixedmediaclay #mixedmedia #quirkydoll #quirkyartdoll #artforlicense #artforproducts #paperclaycraycray #clovermoondesigns #magicinmyhands #blessedlife #sograteful❤️ https://www.instagram.com/p/CJ4hbOHg1Da/?igshid=117i9r76ystbf

Shelby Given I stayed up into the wee hours of the morning adding more layers as I did on my FBL yesterday. She has a long way to go before complete. I still need to paint her bird and add some bling! Oh and also her piece of jewelry (handmade by me) which she holds and the purchaser will be able to wear! I'm so excited to see her finished! Are you? Let me know what you think about her so far! #paperclaycreation #paperclay #paperclaydoll #mixedmediaclay #artdoll #claysculpture #unique #clay #creation #artforlicence #artforproducts #CLOVERMOONDESIGNS https://www.instagram.com/p/CJtSwf8gEeZ/?igshid=1udmqihxp8xvk

I'm making progress everyday! I still have a lot of work to do on her before she can be painted. But each day I enter my art studio to work on her, I admire her for a few minutes, listen and then create! #paperclay #paperclaycreation #paperclaydoll #paperclaysculpture #Paperclaycraycray #mixedmedia #uniqueclaysculpture #clovermoondesigns #artforsalebyartist #artforproducts #artforlicence https://www.instagram.com/p/CJbNV8fArXs/?igshid=ne2idoseyoq4

I don't have a name for her yet! But I imagine her holding a baby bird. I'm not sure if that's the direction she will go. I love the tilt of her head and her fingers. Of course I will have to position the fingers in a more gestural way. I'm not sure at this point what her face will look like! I hope I can get something that looks a bit quirky but also endearing! I'll definitely be adding lots of textures and being. But for now she must dry! #paperclaycreation #paperclaydoll #paperclay #mixedmediaclay #paperclaycraycray #DASclay #DASpaperclay #sclupture #figurativesculpture #quirkypaparclay #quirkyart #quirkyclaydoll #paperclayartist #claywip #clovermoondesigns #clayprocess #paperclayprocess https://www.instagram.com/p/CJRKzligCVE/?igshid=ej3bqq9yx16d

"World's Best Dad" I absolutely love him! As I mentioned before my art creates itself! This wasn't meant to be a male figure at all. But to me it took on a masculine look. I tried to change the look by adding clay removing it, repeat! So I left it be for a bit. Then I decided not to fight it, it wants to be a man...well okay, then you're getting a ball cap! He evolved from there! He does look like the world's greatest dad! He has such a sincere expression! I love all the texture I create on these figures, I adore how expressive they are! There's just something about creating with clay. The way it feels in my hands. I really feel like I'm creating! I look at them from different angles and wait until they speak to me, and tell me what to do next! I know y'all are probably thinking I need a therapist!! Ha..ha! But it's true...I really do create them with my heart and soul with their guidance! #worldsgreatestdad #paperclaycreation #paperclay #stumpdoll #withthesehands #mixedmediadoll #mixedmedia https://www.instagram.com/p/CIlMSwHgn9a/?igshid=1r2r8g9u1893r
