I made a couple test dolls. One of which is a custom mighty muggs monster; I got a bunch of blanks for cheap recently. The second is a Wizard I made from scratch using polymer clay, fabric, and batting all on a wire armature.
With the monster I wanted to try out my paint on, and gluing pieces onto a DIY doll like this. Its sort of like a munny, but by Hasbro. Then, with the wizard I wanted to try making a doll like this. I wasn’t too concerned with how he turned out I didn’t really do too much planning on him. The sculpting is pretty basic but he’s kind of cute. now that I know how thses will turn out I wall definitely attempt more involved designs for both.

Morph Thing is a fun site where you can combine two faces into one–not unlike those science museum contraptions where you and a friend sit on either side of a screen and adjust a knob to see what your children would look like. You can upload your own photos or chose from a selection of celebrity photos. Yeah so if Ms. Tiller and I ever decide to procreate we’ll all know what to expect.

Because We Just Shouldn’t Take Ourselves Too Seriously
Posted in Art, Miscellaneous, mixed media, Stephanie Gerolimatos with tags Art, toy, toys, video on December 18, 2008 by ssstephgHere’s that video i said i’d post in this entry about the themed group show (Toys) i’m in. yes, i’m slow. the vid just shows the jumping jack art-toy/self portrait i made which is pretty much unlike any of the rest of my work. i set the video to that song “Toys” by the Melvins because… well, because it made me giggle, and doesn’t everyone love the Melvins?
