To Gather Paradise


9" x 3.5" art doll sculpture; paper clay, mixed-media. 2018 SOLD
Portfolio Photography Todd Powers

This is my first ever attempt at an art doll sculpt, and it was even more fun than I thought it would be.  She is inspired by Emily Dickinson's poem 657, "I Dwell in Possibility."  Named for the last few lines of the poem:

For Occupation -- This --
The spreading wide my narrow Hands
To Gather Paradise --
