Butterfly Friends

12/3/2022

Marianne and I are working on a new book featuring doll photos I've taken with our old art dolls over the years. So I was inspired to take a few new ones to add to the book.

Now that I have a whole group of House Elves, they would fit with some of my smaller Fantasy characters. Like my piece "Don't Bug Me!", made in 2001, which has a troll seated on a stump threatening a butterfly that's irritating him. Well, it was time for a brand new, more positive twist.

I set him up in a scene in the upper garden with Avery and Emily, and turned it into an entomology lesson instead.

With the troll introducing the kids to his butterfly friends....

...and telling them all about them....

Your troll is awesome and he works beautifully with the “Avery” twins.

The children are so cute. And they are having real fun.

I like the olden days when children played outside and didn't have their faces constantly directed towards cell phone screens.

Love this positive spin! Makes an adorable little story. And the troll is extremely cool.

It's nice to see the troll in a positive role! He is one scary looking dude! The little twins are so cute they could charm any big, bad old troll any day 🙂.
