Hello funny face..

Hello!
We are coming alive bit by bit,

at the moment we are just a lot of odd and funny faces,


  but that is how our  personality is determined.

 It's  in the eyes, and the facial expression.



 This is how the Mistress will decide our names and the kind of bodies we will have.



We are in the dozens and will introduce ourselves very soon , completely intact and clothed.
See you then, Fondly from Hopalong Hollow

  13. OMG.

    OMG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    I was detained last night, unable to read my favorite blogs, but Penny mentioned to me that there was something FABULOUS here....and I am floored.

    JERI LANDERS, what can you NOT DO? Your hands, my goodness, they are magical.

    OK, these are the most realistic animal dolls I have ever seen. The same detail that you put into your painting is unbelievably captured in your three-dimensional work.

    DO YOU SELL? IF SO, I WANT ONE!

    I'm keeping my eye on YOU! Love this...Anita

    2. Hold the phone! You mean you will be selling them? Oh my, I must have one.. If my pockets were full I would take them all home...
      Excuse me dear Anita, may I cut in line?

  15. These little heads and faces are just wonderful. Each one shines out with it's own particular personality and looks so lifelike. I can hardly wait to see them "embodied". That will be something to look forward to.

    You are so talented in so many ways. How do you decide what to work on today and how do you stay focused with so many possibilities to choose from?

    1. You know Vic, That would make a great blog post. It is not easy to decide what to pursue; I have 3 different projects in the works at the same time!

  16. It's fascinating to see these little one come into being, each with its own personality, as you say. I'm looking forward to seeing how each develops.

    Happy 2015 to you, too. xo

  24. Jeri, YOU are BEYOND AMAZING. I can't believe the things you create; your painting, gardens, critters, cut-outs, books– everything is magical.

    I love visiting you, but it makes me feel like I have to get up at 4 and start running!

    Love,
    Sharon

  27. JERI LANDERS!

    First of all darlin', thank you so much for coming to visit. I AM NOT LEAVING BLOGLAND! I am not even deleting my blog. I will still be visiting with enthusiasm, you, Penny and many more whom I adore. I just need to put my writing time elsewhere.

    I am overwhelmed by the love. But I need to move on into different pastures, but like I said, I am staying connected. Life changes, doesn't it?

    I WILL BE BACK. And Ruben said we are going to buy one of your pieces as soon as they are available! YAHHOOOOO! Anita
