I like to make animals to go with my dolls that create a little story for them. The fish on wheels is made to put a doll on top but it makes a great piece on his own as well. For the painting you can use any colour you like. The fish has wheels to make it less serious.

Marlaine Verhelst: doll artist and teacher for over 25 years and NIADA
member since 1999. Making dolls and animals is still fun and so is teaching!
I live in The Netherlands and I use to travel a lot in the US for
exhibitions and teaching. In the meantime I have met a lot of cloth doll
makers and I am very impressed by their creativity and the way they are
organised.People kept asking me to come over to the USA to teach animal making but that would keep me at least four weeks from home (because of the drying time) and that is impossible. Then the idea of an online class was born. So here I am and I am excited to see how it will work. My work has been published in magazines and books all over the world (in the USA in Susan Oroyans 'Finishing the Figure'), I am an author of several 'How to ..'books, I have just finished a CD-Rom on handsculpting into porcelain (text, illustrations and video) and I am the organiser of a yearly doll holiday and workshop week in Paris (France).
