My Projects

Here are some of my art projects I'm working (or have worked) on.

I made a couple of dolls because I thought doll-making might be a good "umbrella career" for me. Doll-making seemed to incorporate many, if not all, of my interests. However, making the dolls themselves were not really enjoyable or satisfying for me. I'm face blind, so have little affinity for faces. And as a child, I wasn't very attached to my dolls. True to my Aspergerian self, my main activities with dolls was lining them up around my room, counting them, and trying to figure out the mechanics of the dolls movements, clothes and accessories.

A far more successful project for me was to make the strand of meditation beads. I've been beading since age seven, usually with teeny tiny seed beads. So this was an unusual project for me. I liked selecting beads and charms with meanings and paying attention to the colors. Plus, I got to line those beads up!
