Start your shopping early !!  

This magazine comes out on Sept. 9,  2014.  I share the center fold with another artist.   

I HAVE BEEN CHOSEN BY EARLY AMERICAN LIFE MAGAZINE AS

 ONE OF THE BEST AT WHAT I DO. MAKE SANTAS !!

I have been chosen by a panel of experts who judged me on skill, artistry and historical inspiration of my Santas. I was selected by the jury to be among the Best in America at what I do. Because of this, I have had my first publication, in the Early American Life magazine.  

This will be the Early American Life Christmas ~  

I was fortunate enough to share the center of the magazine with another artist.  I'll post a picture as soon as I can.  I am walking on air right now.  

Cheers and Merry Christmas,  Dolores

It's always Christmas at my house.

I have come across a Bunny  Candy Container.  The ring around the rabbits  neck says, "Germany".  

Santa Candy Container is finished

My Santa Candy Container Bust

I finished my Santa candy container.  I brushed out the beard and refined the eyes and then I fired it.  I am trying to find the separating line so I can make his mold.

Finishing up my Belsnickle Candy Container  

This is a piece that I have been working on for the last few weeks.  I finally got the face and beard on him.  I am very happy how he turned out.  

Getting ready to do his beard.  This is a new one for me.  It seemed like it came out just right

I will have these in all the favorite christmas colors.  He is a Belsnickle Candy Container.

I am going to make a mold out of this model.  There will only be painting on him.  He may show up on ebay first.




Have a good weekend,  Dolores Koper
