When you are at the end of your rope and you feel like you might finally lose your grip, something or someone suddenly whispers words of encouragement to your soul and you feel as if you've been given a little boost of whatever it was you needed to hang in there. Those whispered words might have been courage, support, inspiration, or love, but they kept you going. In my imagination, those words are whispered by a guardian of our souls - a Soul Whisperer.

Soul Whisperer is made entirely of cloth and measures 21” tall when seated on her stool. With the help of almost 200 photographs illustrating the making of your Soul Whisperer, you will learn how to make every detail of this doll. Special emphasis is paid to drawing, sculpting, and colouring the face. Although you can make your Soul Whisperer with any skin colour you’d like, this class focuses on how to colour a black face. You’ll learn to create the Soul Whisperer’s fabulous shoes out of polymer clay. Plus, over the course of 5 lessons you’ll learn to create an opposable thumb and dainty toes, a miniature shrine, a stool, and fantastic embellishments for your doll. The Soul Whisperer is an intermediate level doll. The lessons for this doll will be uploaded all at once.

What does your Soul Whisperer look like?
