Again with the Artworks Secret Postcards [link]
This was my second and final entry to the 2008 event. I turned it in on the 30th of October. They were due on the 31st. She is my favourite doll yet.
She is a yokai called a Rokurokubi, a.k.a. the "long-necked woman." Often I have seen them also portrayed as Oiran (the high class courtesans often confused with Geisha by westerners). Oiran are artistically a little more fun to make because of the very elaborate hair ornaments and wigs.
The yokai to her right is the Chochin Obake (lantern ghost/monster).
The background is digitally altered photos. I got a photo of a used shoji screen and did some adjusting to the basic layout and the colours. I did the same thing with a photo of a tatami mat. The Chochin is coloured pencil and ink.
Doll Materials:
* polymer and air dry clays
* washi chiyogami papers for her hair and kimono
* metal, Swarovski crystals, and thick metallic vinyl hair ornaments
