My Sister Has Been Making Fantasy Dolls For Over 16 Years, Here Are Her Best 30 Works
Hi everyone, my name is Elena and I'm posting on behalf of my sister Helena, who is an artist. She has been creating dolls for the past 16 years or so. All of her dolls are handmade and one-of-a-kind. She does everything herself, from the hair itself to creating a hairstyle, shoes, and even dresses. Helena also makes the sculpture itself, so every face she carves out is unique.

You can almost feel the emotion that the doll is expressing for her furry friend...
Okay, I am enjoying looking at these but their little faces are really starting to get to me. I just want to take them all away and keep them safe and make their lives better. (Note: I am not criticizing the artist; these are some of the most incredible dolls I have ever seen and I love them, but their expressions really do something to your heart.)
“Master has given Dobby a sock! Dobby is freeee!” (Seriously though, these are absolutely amazing)
Looks like she just came in from the cold and is hoping for hot cocoa!
Aww her hair and eye colour kinda resembles mine! But really, she looks awesome!
I love the tiny differences between them despite them being twins
Why do the creepy dolls have their own little creepy ass dolls?? It's too many layers of creepy!
She looks like she left a ball / party but got attacked on the way home and had to escape by running through the woods and rolling down into a muddy ditch
I wonder what they use for the hair, looks so soft..is it real hair?
These dolls are fantastic, but this one looks like she's been abused. Some of the others look like orphans or victims maybe of child trafficking.
I love these so much! The juxtaposition of the gorgeous Victorian clothing and bright colors with the sorrow and despair in their eyes is very poignant. For all their sadness, it is obvious they were created with much love and care. The incredible detailing, the choice of fabric, the way the scenes are set for the photos...everything about them is exquisite. Thank you for posting these, Elina, and please tell your sister that these are some of the most incredible and wonderfully creative dolls I have seen in my more than six decades. Stunningly well done!
BastWren, I'm wirh you... The artistic ability of this artist is in a class by itself! The style, the emotion, the characteristics, the outfits, the settings, the use of colors and textures .. such talent. Right along side of you, BastWren, these are the most incredible and wonderful dolls I've seen in my seven decades.... I would so much love to see them in person!... And, meet the Artist, as well! What a loving sister to acknowledge her sister's artistic contribution !

These are amazing. Imagine if they were all used in a stop-motion movie or short film
