I am pleased to introduce a new addition to Georgia Vivienne Creations, neoprimitive dolls. While inspired by primitive dolls, mine are decidedly feminine and made from recycled fabrics instead of muslin. It's prim with a twist. Right now I am working on Tangerine, Tanny for short. She is a 51-inch-tall neoprim made from duck cloth and painted with acrylic paint. When I look at this reddish-brown-gold prim with wide eyes, triangle nose, and full lips, she reminds me that planning is wise, but a plan's execution may not end up looking like one had planned.
By not using a pattern, and instead following a largely intuitive process, I have almost completed a rather unusual-looking prim, a painted sculpture, a conversation piece. I love her. She is a one-of-a-kind home decor doll, and I love her spontaneity. Her spontaneity speaks to our ability to adapt to life.
Tanny reminds me that ultimately life works out, even when it looks differently than I had planned.
