Hi everyone,

Sorry for my loooong absence, and to all those kind enough to stop by here and look at my stuff.  To quickly explain why I suddenly dropped off the planet, last fall my husband and I separated for ten weeks.  Since we were together for over 21 years, this was devastating and traumatic.  We got back together on Christmas Day, and our marriage is now stronger than ever (nice to be lovey-dovey again! :)), but I've been struggling to find my groove again.  Now I'm finally back!

My dolls have a new shop: www.oddartdolls.com. &nbs… gives them a new venue off Etsy, which wasn't doing much for me anyway.  There are some dolls there that I have not put up on DeviantArt, so please check them out.

Also, after July 1st, I will no longer be selling my miniature food, dollhouse or jewelry.  If you go to my Etsy shop and use the coupon code at checkout, you can receive 25% off your entire order!  www.etsy.com/shop/AthenaWorkma….

Thanks so much!  Have a good one.

It's been crazy busy around here these past few months: my younger daughter graduated, and I seem to keep biting off *almost* more than I can chew.  In addition to all the work you see me put up here, I'm also getting ready for three gallery shows: the Tomato Art Fest here in August, another doll/photography solo show in December, and a book show here in September.  Yep, I'm putting out a book!  Sixty-two pages fully written and illustrated by myself: "Little Girls are Evil".  It'll be a small run, and after the show, I hope to find a publisher for it.

In between all that, I'm still making dolls and mini food jewelry.  I'm working on three dolls this week: two commissions (my first!), and a doll for the ADO Etsy team's yearly challenge, Wonderland.  I've also started a new Etsy team: Miniature Food Jewelry on Etsy Team. I tell you, I was surprised there wasn't a team like this before with all the mini food jewelry out there.

So, this post is partly an invitation for anyone interested in joining to check out the following links:

Our team page at Etsy: team.etsy.com/viewteam.php?id=…
Our blog: miniaturefoodjewelryonetsy.blo…
Our Facebook page: www.facebook.com/athena.workma…
Our Flickr group: www.flickr.com/groups/minifood…

Now, it's back to dollmaking for me, and keeping the house clean (ugh, necessary evils... ;)).  Take it easy, everyone!

Hi, all!  I have great news: my first solo gallery show is coming up soon!  It's entitled "Outland", and it will showcase my dolls and odd photography (mostly toys, and a lot of TTV- through the viewfinder).  Some of the dolls featured will be:

-Eleanor the Bad Neighbor
-Mina and Marie
-Grillon
-Nubbies
-Frannie Mae

and many more!

So, if you're in the Nashville, Tennessee area, please come out on April 3, 2010 for the opening at the MIR Gallery.  It runs from 6-9 p.m., and there will also be music and free drinks.  I'm especially excited for this because it opens during the First Saturday Gallery Crawl, and barring a sudden late snow (which would make me cry), there will be a ton of people there.  The show runs through April 20th.  If you come by, please say hi. :)

In other, self-pimping news, almost everything you see here in my galleries is still for sale at both my Etsy shops- come on by!

Happy New Year!  Here's hoping 2010 brings more creativity and more success (honestly, my gallery sales weren't anywhere near previous years...).  And thanks to all the lovely people who faved my dolls and minis, are watching me, and welcomed me nicely here to DeviantArt. :)

Stay tuned soon for some Valentine's Day creations...
