Handmade Cockle Shell art doll made by ForestPainting from Instagram/ Etsy. I have owned the doll for about a year- it has been displayed behind glass since I have owned it and is in excellent condition. The doll is made from. Polymer clay, self drying mass, wire, filler, cotton, acrylic paint, wadding, wool, glossy varnish, and matte varnish.
This is an art doll intended for an adult collector, it is not intended for children. Three of the photos are taken by me, and the one on the beach is the original artist photo. Original description from the artist. Shell Art Doll is fully handmade by (ForestPaintingShop). She is 23 cm high (9.0 inches).Shelly wears a sparkly suit and a warm, oversized sweater. She has a backpack on her back because she is a little traveler. In her backpack she has a map of the country she was last in (Portugal).
It is an exceptional and unrepeatable work. And never again to the same character. She have a movable skeleton, she can sit without assistance. His head I made by special seld-drying mass, hands and leg made by polymer clay. Painting by acrylic paint and secured by varnish (matte and gloss). I made his eyes by glass.
