Made of high-fired clay with wax. The bodies have
a strong moveable skeleton with soft stuffing body. Both have hand
knotted European human hair and mouth blown glass eyes. Hanna starts
with a sketch and then creates a wire armature for the intended position
of her dolls. Small bits of clay are attached and as the clay hardens,
finer surface details of the head, breast plate and limbs find their
definition. After 2 firings pieces are then dipped in wax, painted, and
then dipped again. |
