Paper Doll

Boogapony Holly with five outfits, hat, and shawl.

Resa at Graffiti Lux Art & More celebrated her 1500th post on Sunday. The post is full of wonderful drawings of Boogapony Holly, Holly’s poetry, her sister Boogalu Lulu, and excellent music videos, all telling a bit of history along the way. Boogapony Holly is one of Resa’s characters based on Holly at House Of Heart. Holly is one of my favorite poets. Holly is a doll.

Speaking of dolls, one of the coolest features of the post is a paper doll of Boogapony Holly and five outfits, a hat, and a shawl that you can print, cut out the doll and clothing, and try the different outfits on Boogapony Holly.

I printed out the doll and clothes, mounted the doll on cardstock so she could stand, cut out the clothing, and tried the different outfits on Boogapony Holly. They fit perfectly. I was so impressed with Resa’s skill and genius that I photographed Boogapony Holly in each of her outfits. There is one close shot and one shot with a background added for each outfit. The balloon photos are from Sunday’s mass ascension.

Cool of the Evening

I finally got to irrigate after 7 weeks, so the wet soil and mulch made for a cool evening for the kitties, bumblebees and damselflies to hangout in the clover. Laurie was sketching the yard, sans power poles, and Mama Manx was using her head to help Laurie hold up her sketchpad.
