The Doll and the Grape Vine
The doll and the Grape Vine hung out on the set for a few hours. I hoped to make a flip book-like video to show you the way the figure moved, but couldn’t seem to get it to work today, so a contact sheet of sorts will have to do. I feel it’s important to share the process with you as I am feeling my way around while making these teatrino still lives. I am amazed and amused by the animated energy that comes from this eloquent little figure, and I can see that patience, and really concentrating on gesture, will be something that helps me to understand just what is going on within the still life form.
ONCE MORE AROUND THE SUN 
Nice. Thanks for sharing the process. But that’s not an olive branch but a vine bush branch.

What a wonderful series. I really like the one you chose to present large, but I also like #10. What a great figure to explore!

Very entertaining to see how such a tiny doll can keep human busy to create a story around itself. You are ever so close in becoming an assemblagist.

I love the whole doll series, Joel. It is amazing how such a small primitive bundle of cloth and cotton can take on such life and mystery and captivate one’s attention.
