Aika Cappuccino is a little girl with cappuccino-colored skin was created as a tender yet bright character. I was inspired by the mix of natural tones and playful details. Her beige boots are carefully sewn from genuine leather — The body is movable and delicate, combining a felted base, knit fabric, and bead joints. I wanted her to embody both comfort and a hint of fairytale magic: hence the rabbit ears, lace, and soft pastel shades. Collectors often say my dolls “come alive” and bring a special mood. For me, each doll must find her person and become part of their story.

It is said that once every hundred years, in the heart of an old forest, from the east, in the evening, slowly descends over an old mansion, hidden among the enchanted autumn trees, which neither maps nor human footsteps can find. The copper leaves rustle like whispers, carried by the cold wind, the wrought iron lanterns light up by themselves, drawing dancing shadows on the cobblestone alley, up to the gate. That night was the Autumn Masquerade Ball, an event that only happens once every hundred years. Guests come from distant villages, wearing masks made of gold, silver or velvet, but no one knows how do you get invited, once you feel the call of the wind through the copper leaves, you can't refuse. The road shows itself, and the footsteps lead you to the mansion. Music echoed from the great ballroom — violins and harpsichords intertwine with a strange melody, seeming from another world. The walls are decorated with dry branches and twigs with red berries, and the chandeliers sparkled like stars caught in crystal traps. Among the guests was a young woman with a mask of golden leaves.

Timoteia is an autumn fairy witch who lovingly prepares the plants and forest for autumn and winter, though she is easily distracted by falling leaves and pretty berries. Playing hide and seek with woodland creatures brings her much joy when she's not busy with her work.

How often do we find ourselves in difficult situation? "No escape" is meant to convey despair and defeat we feel when we find ourselves trapped, with no way out.
Italian - Quante volte capita di trovarci in situazioni difficili. "No escape" vuole trasmettere la disperazione e la sconfitta che si provano quando ci troviamo intrappolati, senza via d'uscita. |
“Luce”is the human version of the biblical comet. With its light it guides the people to Bethlehem where the announced Savior is about to be born.

This is my Pranavi, which means Goddess of Life. Pranavi was rejected from her tribe when she became adult and her skin changed to a shade of blue and she grew a tail. She now roams alone in search of meaning for her existence. I sculpted Pranavi with Warm Beige Cosclay Polymer Clay, over a wire and foil armature which I covered with masking tape. I used Genesis and Gemini Heat Set paints. On her right arm, I painted her a Ying Yang tattoo, the Tree of Life on her left arm and tall tree on her back. I used Sunset Viscose hair which looks stunning against her blue skin.

Bohoj last remembered that he was in the hold of The Bonny Lass guarding a treasure chest and drinking a bottle of rum and then all of a sudden everything went green and then snow white!

Fertility and Prosperity This piece embodies the potent energy of fertility the abundance of prosperity. Gently cradled in her arms is a small child, its presence a tender symbol of fruitfulness and the eternal continuation of life. The little child looks upwards with a serene expression, a visual representation of hope and the ongoing cycle. The woman's thread hair is styled in a special way and covered with ribbon, adding a unique touch to her maternal image.

She is a tribute to the Palestinian people who are suffering in front of the entire world due to human cruelty and indifference. I hope she can be a source of hope, so they can never give up and continue to fight for their land. And I hope we can all help these wonderful people keep the light alive in their hearts.
