I started listening to Orville Peck at the beginning of the pandemic... his voice captivated me... like the siren song seduced the sailors of Ulysses. I traveled for hours listening him. To my surprise, he also appeared in a paper doll form, by Ívan García who reproduces his wonderful costumes in a cowboy chic aesthetic.
This weekend listen to Orville Peck, visit Ívan García's website and play with paper dolls. 😍
To the next!

I'm sharing here a paper doll I made while waiting at an event. I had some old magazines, scissors and glue on hand... and many hours to wait.
See you later!

I've been looking for new ideas and new themes to draw paper dolls.
That's when I found the Literary Paper dolls project on the web, created by writer Julia Berick in partnership with illustrator Jenny Kroik.
Julia Berick writes for The Paris Review and lives in New York. Jenny Kroik is an illustrator and painter with work published in The Washington Post, Los Angeles Times, Penguin Random House, and more.
With the Litterary Paper dolls project, they brought to life, in the form of paper dolls, some characters from classic novels as well known as Mrs Dalloway, Franny and Zooey, Cassandra at the wedding, among others.
Each character comes with a wardrobe according to the writer's description and Julia Berick's imagination. The paper dolls resulting from this project can be viewed and are accessible online for free.Take a look on this article from The Paris Review
People can join Julia and Jenny in this initiative, with drawing and painting materials, in an online drawing session led by Julia and do the exercise of designing a wardrobe for a paper doll according to the clues in the book.
What an interesting idea to look at works of literature with new eyes or for a Book club session! :)

Tenho procurado novas ideias e novos temas para desenhar paper dolls. Foi quando encontrei na web o projeto Literary Paper dolls, criado pela escritora Julia Berick em parceria com a ilustradora Jenny Kroik. Julia Berick escreve para o The Paris Review e vive em Nova York. Jenny Kroik é ilustradora e pintora com trabalho publicado no The Washigton Post, no Los Angeles Times, na Penguin Random House e muito mais. Com o projeto Litterary Paper dolls trouxeram à vida , sob a forma de paper dolls, algumas personagens de romances clássicos tão conhecidos como Mrs Dalloway, Franny and Zooey, Cassandra at the wedding entre outros. Cada personagem surge com um guarda roupa de acordo com a descrição do escritor e a imaginação de Julia Berick. As paper dolls resultantes deste projeto podem ser vistas e estão acessíveis on line e gratuitamente. Siga o link. As pessoas podem juntar-se a Julia e Jenny nesta iniciativa, com materiais de desenho e pintura, numa sessão de desenho on line conduzida por Júlia e fazer o exercício de elaborar um guarda roupa para uma paper doll consoante as pistas do livro. Que ideia tão interessante para olhar com outros olhos as obras de literatura ou para uma sessão de um Clube de leitura! :)
Following the classic idea to have some paper dolls on the advertisements to sell cloths, I found on the web this editorial which seems interesting. Here we have a classical example and a modern one. You can take a look to all editorial following the link.
See you!
It seems the kids had fun coloring the page. |

I found this book with fantastic watercolor illustrations that allow us to travel through the fashion eras from 1907 to the 80s. As you can see on the cover of the book, each illustration features a nude model, like a paper doll, and the successive layers of underwear all the way to the complete look. Each illustration has a brief comment.
I selected these two models because the first model reminds me of Brigitte Bardot (I want to be simple, wild and sexy - she said).
The other one who reminds you? :-)
Encontrei este livro com fantásticas ilustrações em aquarela que nos permitem viajar pelas eras da moda desde 1907 até aos anos 80. Como pode ver na capa do livro cada ilustração traz uma modelo nua, como uma paper doll, e as sucessivas camadas de roupa desde as íntimas até ao look completo. Cada ilustração possui um breve comentário. Selecionei esses dois modelos porque a primeira modelo lembra-me a Brigitte Bardot (eu quero ser simples, selvagem e sexy - disse ela) A outra quem vos faz lembrar? :-)

I found this images of this male paper doll that seems to me a 60's fashion catalogue of Confexim a textile company from Poland .. I think it is a nice idea showing the collection in a paper doll form. I can't ready the text, I think it is russian so I can't read the name of the artist if it is credited.
It's so rare found an item like this that I decided to share. I wonder to have it in my collection!
