Every Figure Tells a Story

My last show of the year, with the Texas Association of Original Doll Artists, is "Every Figure Tells a Story" at 18 Hands Gallery.  The show was set up last week and it looks great!
It's a beautiful gallery and everyone there is so nice to work with.

My pieces in the show are
"A Mother's Treasure is Her Daughter"

"Once Upon a Starry Night"

"The Tumbler"

Opening night was wonderful - a great turnout!

Thank you 18 Hands Gallery for hosting our show!  It will be up through December 31.
