Carol specializes in forms with Hopi, Navajo and Pueblo styles
of hair and dress. Her babies are intelligent in appearance,
reflected in the fact that many
are reading books at an early age. The figures have blankets
that flutter and skirts that flare out creating the effect of
motion. She also places felt on the bottom of the pieces.
The
storyteller at left features three children and a small blanket.
It measures 4.5 inches tall with Carol's wonderful eye for detail
in sculpting and painting. Your price
