Betty Lou Byrnes One of a Kind Santa's & Such

 

Welcome...

The wonder of Christmas morning is like no other day for children around the world. Santa represents  happiness, excitement, joy and love on that special day.  As a child, like many other children, Santa always fascinated me. As an adult, my love for art led  me to create my own vision of this  jolly old elf. I have a studio in my home where it remains Christmas all year long.

 

I consider each one of my original art doll Santa’s a labor of love. This is why I am very selective about the materials I use. For the face, hands, legs, feet and boots, I use Prosculpt clay.  It helps me give each Santa the warm natural expression he deserves. Fine glass eyes add that special twinkle. For the snowy white hair and flowing beards, I choose the softest mohair.   I use a wire armature to create each Santa’s pose. Over this, I make a soft sculpture body.  Since clothes make the man, I design and sew each Santa’s outfit, carefully adding special trims, tiny treasures and toys to complement the ensemble.

 

I hope that my Santa’s will warm your heart with the pure joy, and childlike wonder of Christmas morning.  Finally, may all your presents be too big to fit down the chimney!

 

Blessings

Betty Lou
