Description

Entry for the Enchanted doll Birthday Contest 2010 by Marina Bychkova. Marina is a wonderful artist who produces the best dolls I have ever laid eyes upon. They are beautiful and mysterious, delicate and strong and make people dream. Clearly I am fan and I have been inspired a lot by her creations lately...

She is on deviantart: [link]
Here is her webpage: [link]

This was inspired by her doll Cosmos Exploratum (nude doll Edie with precious helmet...still a WIP, but fascinating). I imagined that she would be an ambassador from another planet sent to Earth to establish contact and study our cultures. I then depicted a paper matryoshka with images from the ambassador's home planet. Within the matryoshka a little paper reproduction of the nude doll Edie is nestled as if she was traveling in her space-travel machine...

I did not win, but it was great fun working on this project.

Technique: copic markers and pencils on watercolor paper.
