Tracey-anne aka Jasmoon Butterfly
Welcome to jasmoon's Dolly of London, blog
I 'm a mixed media, folklore artist, residing in SW London, UK.
The craft name is 'jasmoon butterfly' is used in creative ventures, due to my love of the flower Jasmine, the magical moon, and delicate, wonderfully transforming butterflies.

Tee hee... This picture was sent to me by
my Aunty Polly and I became all emotional.
Wow, did it bring back some memories, beautiful memories.
It's funny that I now make dolls again.
I had forgotten my love for fabric as a child,
I guess it explains a lot now :o)
Sadly, I can not remember my creations name, but Aunt Polly's doll was Sebastian.
I love to create dolls from clay, cloth and paper.
Folklore is my inspiration, the renewing of the old....
I try to evoke childhood memories and inspiration via dolls/art from such tales as 'Cottingley fairies'.
My work has been published by
'Contemporary doll' ~ 'Doll Collector' and 'Art doll' magazines.
I also design and create wooden, codex books containing decorative aged pages.
Pyrography, collage, and mixed media paint techniques are used in the process.
I love to experiment with new idea's, and boy, do I have plenty! (Giggles)

Whispers of an ancient world echoed through art.
hello Tracy Anne, I have just found you via my interest in Boudoir Dolls! What a lovely blog site, and you're here in the UK! Great and loving family, super photographs, excellent information, I love it all! Well done you. Some of your creations are just wonderful.
ReplyDeleteI would love to know how you do the clay work for the doll heads - I used to make plaster of paris models as a kid, but would like to do something special with the dolls I propose to make (got a vintage pattern from America).
Anyway, enough burbling on, thanks so much! I will be back! Jacqui
