Steampunk Souls are in Art Doll Quarterly!

So excited to announce that the Steampunk Souls are in this issue of ADQ!! Issues hit the stands November 1. So many amazing dolls in this issue, I am thrilled to be a part of it!

Katrina Just Listed!

Katrina loves her little kitty, she keeps him nice and safe in the jar. Don't tell her it's not a kitty, it's one of the Evil Soul Suckers experiments! It makes Katrina very angry...

Katrina is 7 1/2" tall x3" x 3" deep. She has vintage watch parts for her right eye, and her left eye is purple glass. There is also a vintage watch part as the clasp on her collar. The back of her dress has a vintage earring in pretty shades of purple. She is hand sculpted over an armature (no molds ever) out of polymer clay. Her right arm is a vintage key. The specimen jar is glass with a top I created out of polymer clay, a wind up watch part and another found object. Her little, er...kitty is also handsculpted and has tiny vintage watch pieces on it. I hand painted her in layers with acrylic paints, she is sealed with a matte finish. Katrina is signed, titled and dated on the bottom.
 She is available in my etsy shop http://www.etsy.com/shop/michelelynchart Look for my dolls in the upcoming Winter issue of Art Doll Quarterly, on shelves November 1 2011! I'll post a preview here soon!

Back to work, I go.....xo Michele

Faye & May

Meet Faye and May, another set of conjoined twins. I have this thing about good and evil living in side someone, but what if they were split into two people inside the same body? Poor May! Faye is a bit on the evil side!




I had a lot of fun with this one, sculpted on a vintage alarm clock, it's permanently open now. Lots of vintage watch parts on their chest and in their eyes. I also used glass eyes on them, since I've had a few melting mishaps lately! Sculpted in polymer clay over an armature.





8 1/2 x 4 x 3 inches, another piece on their way to the Pop Gallery in New Mexico! Have a great weekend everyone! xo Michele
