Drawing Challenge: Paperdoll/Drama

This week I am the host for the drawing challenge and have chosen the theme Paperdoll/Drama. Make a flat paper doll that has a large skirt area which will be the drama setting. Here you can tell the story. Maybe it is a comedy...maybe a dramatic idea...maybe a secret (which you don't really have to tell but can allude to)...maybe a story of encouragement, hope, success...you name it. My doll has a secret that she keeps hidden deep within the folds of her underclothing. She will keep the secret to herself but it is about the day her gringo took her to the old church...
Come on in and join the fun. Everyone is welcome here. All you have to do is to create your piece that you would like to show to the group, and then do a post about it this coming Saturday May 26 on your blog. I will keep the main list of the participants here, with links so that you can go back and forth easily.
To join in, leave a comment below saying that you are IN!

  12. Stefanie! Goodness art friend! If you are too busy with other commitments please do not feel you have to do this week's drawing challenge. Life has to be metered out in shared chunks of time. I did put your name as being IN but for Pete's sake no worries if a drawing doesn't get done for this theme. *smiles* Norma, xo

  22. Dear Norma, this was a lovely theme(made my first doll too and had fun)

  25. I love your doll! All that is under her skirt...her skirt reminds me of the doily my grandmother kept on her sewing machine.

    Greetings to you from Wichita, Kansas! I found you via Lynne Hoppe's blog post about your challenge.

    Have a great rest of the week!
