Description Like my AUDREY HEPBURN doll head, she is a design idea for a totally movable doll with interchangeable heads and bodies. I still have some bugs to work out in developing the construction. A serious issue is the position of the brads, and should the neck be attached to the head or to to the body frame. Gina is based on the central character of a child's book and record I loved to read and play over and over. From the days of my childhood dreams of being a ballerina. The doll is hand drawn on high quality artist grad watercolour paper. I used Faber-Castell watercolour pencils and pens for the head itself; and Prisma colour broad-tip pens for the outline.

As I have been doing jewelry again, after a 18 year lull...it has been suggested that I should use these doll heads as pins; or, to use as a central motif in my pendants.
