These are not original photos.
You may have seen them before.
But when I thought of something tiny.
These strolled through my mind’s door.
Talk about holding perfection.
In the palm of your hand.
Art by Camille Allen ~ Artist Dolls and Sculptures . . . and they are For Sale.

They are so cute …..and tiny
Aren’t they precious? From their noses to their toeses.
Oh my goodness hey are so cute!
When I first saw them, I heard they were made of marzipan (almond paste).
That seemed rather nasty ~ way worse than biting the ears off a chocolate Easter Bunny or eating a marshmallow peep.
Fortunately . . . they are NOT edible.
Precious. Tiny wonderful.
Exquisite!

So sweet!
Petite!
So tiny and adorable!
The artist is 30 years old and loves babies. There are photos of her at work creating the miniatures on her site.
I’ve seen this before and just like when I first saw them, I thought AWWWWW! So precious and lifelike!
The artist who did these is so amazingly talented!
I’ve seen them several times and had always heard they were made of marzipan.
Yesterday, I did some digging and found that is not true. I confess to being a bit relieved. 😀
They are adorable. Are they ceramic forms? 🙂
I don’t think so. According to the artist:
I use various kinds of professional doll sculptors’ clay to make the babies. The babies have soft English mohair to imitate fine baby hair and are blushed with paints for realism to enhance their tiny wrinkles and creases.
Beautiful photos Nancy thank you for sharing them this morning.
This is the first photo challenge where I have not used my own photos ~ seems a bit like “cheating.” But these baby dolls seemed perfect for the theme and I love to promote artists.
I think they are great! Thank you for sharing.
Glad you enjoyed, Clar.
so cute!
The detail that she achieves amazes me.
they are just magic, perfect and each different
I agree. The postures, the eyes, and the tiny mouths each convey something a bit different.
Oh oh oh I am about to jump all about! Those are the cutest things ever!!!!!!!! I bought some molds to make some of those and I never did. Now I want too. Now if those photos don’t make us all smile something is wrong.
Linda, I adore your enthusiasm! They do, indeed, make me smile.
If you make some sometime . . . post photos!
They are beautiful and very well done!
Her attention to detail rivals yours, Tok. 😀
Thank you very much 😉
