Quick update ^__^.
These are some of my new artworks. I've finished them last week...
They are 3 little lovely Pixies that comes from my old idea about. Infact these kind of characters are part of my first works with fimo and polymer clays (some years ago) but now thanks to the experience I have acquired over time, they are more beautiful, more care...and it was so funny to work on them!
They're not OOAK, In fact the people may require to me, with infinite variations of colors an shape of hats. :P

...New Projects! ^^'

ENG: Hi there! I'm still here... Really busy in this last period. In these recent days I would want to update this blog but the Flu has stopped me, so I'm a little bit in late :D ...but... I've a lot of artistic projects to the assets and actually they're all in progress! Then...stay with me! I will post them all....Soon!! ^___-'

ITA: Heilà! Sono ancora quì, veramente indaffarata nell'ultimo periodo, in questi giorni avrei voluto aggiornare il blog ma l'influenza mi ha fermata, per questo sono un pò in ritardo, ma ho moltissimi progetti all'attivo ed attualmente sono tutti in lavorazione! Quindi...rimanete con me. Li posterò presto tutti! ^___-

Great Disappointment and Sorrow!!

I'm really sad and disappointed.
I Believe that... The W...F Summer Fairy Contest was a fake.
I've totally lost trust in some artistic competitions, above of all those that comes from forums.... 'cause there are always the same results and wins always the same artists.

In this contest the parameters of judgments were not respected:


"Judging will be on concept, attention to detail, pose, the sculpt itself and costuming. It must be a new doll and OOAK. No molds are to be used."


The winner is a doll made surely by a Great Artist, this is not at issue but this Fairy doesn't respect all the parameters, she's:

_ TOTALLY NUDE ...THEN NO COSTUMING
_ NO SPECIAL DETAILS... only the face, the hands and the feet... Well is difficult to imagine her without.
_ NO A SPECIAL CONCEPT...THE BASE IS ONLY A LITTLE BIT OF SAND

But the Artist is popular... THAT'S ALL AND THAT'S ENOUGH!!

I'm not a stupid. But I've got some doubts.
I think that maybe this Contest has been done to give visibility to the forum (???).
I think that maybe the Winner was already decided (???).
I think that maybe there's not even a real prize, only an attraction (???).

Or it is so...or... Wins always the POPULARITY, doesn't matter if the doll is beautiful or not, if it respect parameters of judgment or not, if is an hard work or not... and so on, doesn't matter... "Who is the Artist? Oh Is she/he? Ok she/he is the Winner! It's Decided!!"

I don't understand.
I feel cheated.
I don't seen the other entries yet, but I've made a comparison with mine...and you can do exactly the same thing...

I've realized a big project with:

_ MANY DETAILS:
.2 Books;
.a Written Diary;
.a Cup of leaves with liquid and straws;
.a leaf as pen;
.a Ladybug;

_ A big MUSHROOM: MADE IN EVERY DETAIL BY ME, WITH A COMPLEX STRUCTURE, PAINTED BY HAND full of tones and finishing touch!!!

_ A Complex and Global Scene...

_ and a FAIRY with a costume, with a face, feet and hands... that I think is not a Monster... or not?

My Creation tells a Story.

Then... my hard work, where I spent many hours and days on design and workmanship, not worth anything? Good to know that.

So why should I participate if the winner is always already decided regardless?
Can you tell me that??


This is a GREAT...GREAT...GREAT... DISAPPOINTMENT and not 'cause I'm not the Winner, I hope this is clear, but 'cause there was not an honest Judgment based on the real parameters required.

Lilybel...To the Shade of a Mushroom!!

Ok...this is a new Fairy.

Vivienne & The Puppet Theatre.... BJD ^^'

She represents a Broken Doll and more precisely a puppet with the wires: 2 on her hands and 2 dropped down.
She has on her body cuts and cracks, crooked limbs and is staying on a small stage.
I've made her inspiring me to the Ball Jointed Dolls. I love this type of dolls and it was from a long time that I wanted to create one of them.
It was a really long and demanding work (for her base too )
I hope she can likes you! ^__^'

Parteciping to the IADR Contest April Show 2010 "Broken Doll" .


ITA: Vivienne rappresenta una Bambola rotta e più precisamente una marionetta con i fili: 2 sono sulla mano e 2 sono caduti.
Sul corpo ha crepe e tagli, giunture rotte ed è sita su un piccolo palchetto.
L'ho creata ispirandomi alle Ball Jointed Dolls. Amo questo tipo di bambole ed era da molto tempo che volevo crearne una così.
E' stato un lavoro piuttosto lungo ed impegnativo (per la base anche).
Spero che vi piaccia! ^__^'

*Ha partecipato al contest di IADR di Aprile 2010 "Broken Doll"

ITA: Questa è la mia 20a Creazione OOAK, è fa sempre parte della serie di bambole Gothic ispirate allo stile Tim Burton.
E' chiaramente un Angioletto in piedi su una grande Nuvola...

Ratman Vs RedBaron....Chess Match!! ^__^'

This is a commissioned artwork that I've made in December 2009...for a XMas gift, from my brother to his girlfriend which is a lover of these two characters. The idea base was a Chess match or similar and between the various proposals made by my brother, I've chosen that one exactly...The entire work is totally fruit of my imagination and creativity.

(....pssss...RedBaron is the winner as you can see! Poor Ratman... :P)


ITA: Questo è una creazione che ho fatto nel periodo di Natale 2009...per un regalo, da mio fratello alla fidanzata che è un'amante di questi due personaggi così famosi.

L'idea di base era appunto una partita a Scacchi o un'incontro/scontro simile...e tra le varie proposte fatte da mio fratello, ho scelto proprio questa...forniva simpatici spunti :)
L'intero lavoro è totalmente frutto della mia immaginazione e creatività.

(....pssss....Come potete vedere il Barone Rosso sta vincendo! Povero Ratman... :P)

Wednesday Addams...Here Lies Pugsley!

Wednesday is including into my Gothic Dolls series... :blink:

She seems soooo innocent, but, in reality, she have just made a grave in memory of Pugsley (you know...brotherly tiffs ghgh) which instead is obviously live, and after to do that, she have used a shovel to bury her beloved Headless Doll "Marie Antoinette"...that infact lies in the hole just excavated. :P

Hope you like her and this strange scenary too..."Strange" for all of us, 'cause let me say that the Addams Family would be proud of me :LOL: :D

ITA: Mercoledì Addams fa sempre parte della mia serie di bambole Gothic...ispirate a Tim Burton....

Sembra così innocente, ma, in realtà, ha appena fatto una tomba in ricordo di Pugsley (sapete com'è ...bisticci fraterni ghgh), il quale invece è ovviamente vivo e vegeto. Dopodichè ha usato una pala per seppellire la sua amata Bambola senza testa "Maria Antonietta"....che infatti giace nel buco appena scavato.

Spero che Mercoledì vi piaccia ed anche questo strano scenario...Si "Strano" per tutti noi...perchè lasciatemi dire che la Famiglia Addams sarebbe senz'altro orgogliosa di me! :D ahahah...

LunaMay & Rag Doll Flyx...Halloween Time! #15

This is an OOAK Gothic Sculpture and it will be part of a long series of dolls inspired by the Tim Burton' Style. Infact actually I've got some other w.i.p. that I'm making into this way.

However, She's name is LunaMay (Luna = Moon). She's sitting on a big Pumpkin surrounded by stones and foliage. There's also her beloved rag doll cat "Flyx". Flyx is a very old rag doll, kept together thanks to a lot of patches and seams, with buttons as eyes...but LunaMay loves Flyx so much and she does never separate from him.

Made on October 2009... and it is my #15 OOAK

ITA: Questa è una OOAK Gothic Doll e fa parte di una lunga serie (spero) di bambole ispirate allo stile di Tim Burton. Infatti ho altri lavori all'attivo improntati su questo stile.

Comunque, il suo nome è LunaMay. Siete su una grossa Zucca ed è circondata da pietre, muschio e fogliame. C'è anche il suo amato ed ormai usurato pupazzo, il Gattino "Flyx". Flyx è davvero vecchio, tenuto insieme da pezze e cuciture, con bottoni come occhi... ma LunaMay ama Flyx tantissimo e non separarsi mai da lui....

E' la mia 15a OOAK, creata in Ottobre del 2009

Cute Doll & Sweet Bear.... in Country Style!

Since when I was child I have always loved to create, to that times there were not or I didn't perhaps know about the existence of fimo & co... but there was the airdry clay...as Das, Salt clay and so on... It was funny and I use still this type of clays for my creations.

This Doll and the bear too are made with the Salt Pasta...and I've made them 2 years ago...

ITA: Sin da quando ero bambina ho sempre amato creare, all'epoca non c'erano o io almeno non sapevo dell'esistenza di fimo & Co...ma in compenso c'erano le paste che si asciugavano all'aria, come il Das o la pasta di sale e così via... Era divertente ed io uso ancora questo tipo di paste nelle mie creazioni.

Questa Bambolina e l'Orsetto sono fatti con la pasta di sale e poi dipinti...li ho realizzati un paio di anni fa... ^^'

Rany & Ronfy....Just Married!

This time is the turn of a little female Frog... Rany is her name and of a Bear ...Ronfy ...What strange couple, but are not they tender together? I think so! ^__^'

ITA: Questa volta è il turno di una Ranocchietta chiamata Rany e di un Orso chiamato Ronfy...che strana coppia!!! Ma in fondo... non sono teneri insieme? Io penso di si! ^__^'

Peter & Wendy...Just Married!

Another WCT...commissioned.
This Time the bridegrooms are identified in the two Disney' s characters. I was funny to do them. ^^'
