The Spirit of the Northwest by M. Michele Thorp




A souvenir from the 2001 Paper Doll Convention in Oregon that Pat O'Rourke recently asked about on the pdartists group on Yahoo. Lovely artwork by M. Michele Thorp. There are 10 outfits in all, two of which are 3-dimensional. One, the snow scene, is shown above. The doll slips into a small paper pocket at head and feet to hold her in place. Inside this box set is a booklet written by the artist describing how each outfit was inspired "by the flora, fauna, and vistas of the Pacific North." Beautifully done.
