I have been posting pictures of my porcelain BJD in progress on facebook and Flickr, so please take a look at the pictures to see more of what I have already done! Well now it is so close to see her finished, I just can't wait... I've been dreaming about this for over a year!<br />Also, I would like to announce my new website: <a href="http://www.DollEssence.com">http://www.DollEssence.com</a> which is dedicated to the BJDs only. It is still in construction but there is a form there that you can fill in to receive a notification as soon as my doll is available for purchase, before I make it public. These dolls take too much time, love and patient to make so I am not sure how many I will be able to make within a month, maybe one or two. That's why the "First to know list" is a good thing if you are interested in my dolls, you might be one of the first to order and your doll will be with you sooner. </p>Tatianahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17851280428516377081noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6030384743442926393.post-16479936655253893912011-06-23T07:52:00.000-07:002011-06-23T07:55:26.416-07:00Cursos - Courses<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://www.elo7.com.br/tatianatofaneto"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 306px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjDscALudJvosp3IpIHpKNomE3d3WcMwDx6keOPemQLsQAHxg9Qt6ILoSwiJNQIM7IiCeWp7ZG64LSNNgReAzWv_h5WgJp0y-Skfpxz2SBzM7h2_6VdJOFzN8AIzRDSAY2AjILBPe5XfPRb/s400/cursocompleto.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5621428739401647922" border="0" /></a><br /><div style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.elo7.com.br/tatianatofaneto"><img src="http://www.elo7.com.br/assets/img/div/elo7gg.gif" border="0" /></a></div>Tatianahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17851280428516377081noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6030384743442926393.post-1308515290456332592011-05-28T20:29:00.001-07:002011-05-28T20:29:41.780-07:00Wasn't I supposed to lose the little glass slipper?<div style="margin: 0 0 10px 0; padding: 0; font-size: 0.8em; line-height: 1.6em;"><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/tatidoll/5770358158/" title="Wasn't I supposed to lose the little glass slipper?"><img src="http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3394/5770358158_99b029587e.jpg" alt="Wasn't I supposed to lose the little glass slipper? by TatiDoll" /></a><br/><span style="margin: 0;"><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/tatidoll/5770358158/">Wasn't I supposed to lose the little glass slipper?</a>, a photo by <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/tatidoll/">TatiDoll</a> on Flickr.</span></div><p>I like this picture as much as it hurts to remember that I broke her foot. This is my first complete-fired-to-maturity-porcelain-doll. I broke her foot while I was stringing her, I accidentaly let it fall on the floor.

But I hate the fact that I lost her foot because I know how much work it was! <br />While she holds her broken foot I can't help but imagine what she is thinking...It looks like she is wondering whether she has any similarity with Cinderella...

I was amazed by the advantages of making wax castings before the final porcelain casting. I guess the only disadvantage is the extra work and that it takes longer to finish the project. But I am pretty sure the results will worth it.

This is one of the reasons why I am taking so long to finish this project. I want to be satisfied with my doll and that means a lot, I am a bit too perfectionist... I've lost track of how many test castings I have made, but I know I've failed a lot of times. I felt discouraged sometimes, so tired to see another set of doll parts going to trash. But there is beauty everywhere... porcelain and I have slowly started to get along well, understanding each other and allowing each one of us to go a little deeper in our relationship. ♥ <br />I took this picture because I thought it was beautiful to see the doll parts together while they are drying. Unfortunately these pieces were part of my failure proccess.<br />So I keep trying, never giving up. Until I can make myself happy.<br clear="all" />Tatianahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17851280428516377081noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6030384743442926393.post-19513050853987814232011-03-06T12:23:00.001-08:002011-03-22T10:37:40.605-07:00Making molds - Moldes<div style="float: right; width: 240px; margin: 0 0 10px 10px; padding: 0; font-size: 0.8em; line-height: 1.6em;"><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/tatidoll/5503091927/" title="photo sharing"><img src="http://farm6.static.flickr.com/5255/5503091927_92cbf4a05a_m.jpg" alt="Making molds - Moldes by TatiDoll" /></a><br/><span style="margin: 0;"><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/tatidoll/5503091927/">Making molds - Moldes</a> a photo by <a href="http://www.flickr.com/people/tatidoll/">TatiDoll</a> on Flickr.</span></div>I'm sorry I haven't taken many pictures during the proccess of my doll becoming porcelain... there is just so much work that I ended up forgetting all about pictures...<br />This picture was taken some months ago when I started making the molds.

She now belongs to one of my dear students. She "chose" her owner through a drawing that happened on December 30, I had a video conference with all my students where I made the drawing and it was a lot of fun!<br /><br />It was my way to say thank you to all the wonderful people who joined my course and trusted me. It is not always safe to join such kind of website as you may end up frustrated in the case that the artist just stops teaching because she/he becomes engaged in other projects (it happened to me once). That's why I am so proud to have completed this project, teaching people in my country, how to sculpt an adult and a child fairy in polymer clay, from the very start to the end. And yet I've given them a bonus - a mermaid lesson - which I will post pictures here soon.<br /><br />The best thing about all this is to see the result of my work. Some students are even starting to teach other people in their home studios where they used to teach cold porcelain only. It is just fantastic to see they've learned so fast through my lessons, that they are able to teach now! While it took myself five years to find the confidence and experience to do so. This is just the best reward I could get.Tatianahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17851280428516377081noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6030384743442926393.post-6702224970335429672010-11-07T11:41:00.001-08:002011-03-22T10:37:40.605-07:00Porcelain BJD - test firings<div style="float: right; margin-left: 10px; margin-bottom: 10px;"><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/tatidoll/5154851913/" title="photo sharing"><img src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4153/5154851913_e3f369513d_m.jpg" alt="" style="border: solid 2px #000000;" /></a><br /><span style="font-size: 0.9em; margin-top: 0px;"><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/tatidoll/5154851913/">Porcelain firing tests - testando a queima de porcelana</a><br />Upload feito originalmente por <a href="http://www.flickr.com/people/tatidoll/">TatiDoll</a></span></div>Sometimes I fell I am the slowest person in this world when it comes to art. There were times when it bothered me so much but I can see the good side of it now and it looks like an advantage to me. Although I wish I had already finished this doll in porcelain, I like the fact that I am taking all the steps carefully, planning before each one of them, making tests and learning a lot. Did I mention how much I love learning? I love it so much that I'm afraid I will feel empty when I finish this doll and see there will be nothing else to learn! I will try to find something new to learn - for sure!<br /><br />This is the first porcelain firing of my bjd prototype. It was only a test firing, it helped me find out that my kiln is overfiring so I have to make some adjustments. I noticed the head warped a little bit due to the high temperature, I believe. But I love the porcelain look already.<br /><br />It has been a wonderful learning experience.<br clear="all" />Tatianahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17851280428516377081noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6030384743442926393.post-25271581136696851452010-11-07T10:59:00.000-08:002011-03-22T10:39:05.167-07:00Teaching Updates<div style="text-align: center;"><br />Today I want to give some updates on my teaching, many lessons have been added to the website but I din't have time to post pictures here.

This week was painting lesson, and I love it when I can see the doll painted, it almost feels like she is alive! It's amazing they turn out completely different after painting. I'm also teaching how to creat an adult fairy, I will post pictures later, when she is on the painting stage too. We are alternating lessons every week between the child and adult fairy. It has been a wonderful experience to me. I'm enjoying it so much and I'm doing my best to teach my students just the way I would like to have been taught. It's so rewarding to see everyone is happy and enjoying the lessons.<br /></div>Tatianahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17851280428516377081noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6030384743442926393.post-23029572729698185022010-08-05T05:08:00.001-07:002011-03-22T10:37:40.606-07:00STANDING ON HER OWN<div style="float: right; margin-left: 10px; margin-bottom: 10px;"><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/tatidoll/4863060784/" title="photo sharing"><img src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4080/4863060784_71d2c683be_m.jpg" alt="" style="border: solid 2px #000000;" /></a><br /><span style="font-size: 0.9em; margin-top: 0px;"><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/tatidoll/4863060784/">STANDING ON HER OWN</a><br />Upload feito originalmente por <a href="http://www.flickr.com/people/tatidoll/">TatiDoll</a></span></div>What a magical moment to finally find out that TatiDoll stands on her own!!!!!!!!!
