Traveling art doll Xanthia's Doll

Hi everyone :)

A little update on the ADO traveling Doll Project
Brief info on TAD:
Each member of the team will start a doll and post to another doll artist. We then receive another doll from another artist in our team. We do not complete the dolls. Each person on the team will add to the doll in some way, with their style or ideas for the doll. When the doll is at it's last cycle, the person at the end of that cycle will complete the doll. Then the doll will return to it's original owner, as a complete doll.

Xanthia's Doll


I decided to create some clothing for doll two for the traveling doll project.
I had some hand dyed muslin left from college and made a dress, 
jacket and fascinator type hat.
She is now named Alithia.
Alithia met Anathon (Martha's doll) earlier this week and she is now off 
to Spain to meet Leandra.
Whoop whoop!


Next up will be Leandra's fox doll, can't wait! How exciting :0)
Love & Light

TAD Traveling Art Doll Martha's creation - Ayala Art


So with My two dolls off to Spain, the postman brings a package:
OOooo it was wonderful to have the arrival of ? 
Hmmm Martha's doll must first have a name, let me think....Ah a fae name 
(as I notice the two holes in his back) 
before I could come up with a name, he whispered in my ear - Anathon! 
Well I fell in love with his choice! Everyone please meet Anathon Idorus! 
During his stay here in London, UK Anathon met Xanthia's doll. 
I think (shhhh) he took quite a fancy to her and was quite sad at the thought of leaving. 
I assured him that he was not to worry as she would be accompanying him to Spain. 
Oh he was very happy at the prospect  
To help Anathon on his way I gave him some wings and some clothing. 
He can't wait to have some hair and trousers! I think he will remain quite shy until he is completed. 
I can't wait to see how he blossoms! It was wonderful having Anathon visit, 
and doubly joyous to have Xanthia's doll join us too! 

I will be revealing more about her later. 
Love & light
