Last week CCADC was lucky enough to have Ankie Daanen teach us her wonderful doll making techniques. We sculpted heads, hands and feet. This was an challenging but exciting learning experience. Ankie is a gifted and gracious teacher. As you can see, all the dolls turned out beautiful. Not only did we learn how to sculpt but also how to paint the faces. They are done with watercolor. Using watercolor was also a challenge as we were unfamiliar with this medium. Please note the exquisite costumes. They were specially make for our dolls by Ankie herself. She has she an eye for details. If you ever get a chance to take a class from Ankie, don't pass up the opportunity.
