ART DOLLS
Art Dolls have a wide variety of styles and mediums. Some can be abstract or tribal, while others can be incredibly realistic. Art dolls do not always move, nor are they the same as baby dolls, Barbie dolls, or any other kinds or types of manufactured dolls.

They are not usually meant to be played with, even though they have the term "doll" attached. The do not have to be human, or look remotely humanoid.

They are usually One-Of-A-Kind (OOAK), and will often go for fine art prices. Art Dolls have avid collectors that enjoy collecting from certain artists and finding new and up-and-coming artists,  or on certain themes.

Playing with my imagination, colors, shapes, textures.

Wondering "What if...."

What if I used foam core for a body?

What if I had roots coming out of their heads?

How can I use this fabulous piece of fabric?

What symbols would give this doll more meaning for me?
