OOAK BLACK MULATA CARIBBEAN DOLL

- by Cyra R. Cancel

This week's theme: Dolls

Dolls have been with mankind since prehistory and are found in every culture. They are used in religious ceremonies, sought by collectors, used in magic, are cultural icons and are toys for children. They are also created as art. Artist made dolls are special things. They are made for many different reasons and the materials used - like the dolls themselves, are as varied and unique as the artist that creates them.
