BENEdolls - American
Folk Art Dolls & Figures are inspired
by antique papier mache dolls, these one-of-a-kind
figures are sculpted in papier mache painted and
detailed. Some dolls have moveable heads, arms,
legs and removable clothing. Bene makes the
clothes for each doll using tea dyed fabrics,
antique and vintage lace and trims. The
dolls have an antique old world quality and their
clothes reflect that. The artist searches
antique stores and flea markets for antique doll
clothes to incorporate into outfits for the
BENEdolls. Each BENEdoll
has its own look, and no two are exactly the
same. |

| “Making these figures
allows me to combine my passion for painting and
sculpture. Some of my work like the ‘dancing red
devil’ and ‘melon head girl who loves watermelon’ and
other tongue-in-cheek characters have been called
outsider folk art. I formulate stories about
each figure to help me with painting their facial
expressions and creating their costumes.”...Bene |
