Workspace Wednesday / Calisma alani Carsambasi

Efenim merhabalar, bundan boyle her carsamba studyomdan bir fotograf paylasmaya karar verdim. (burada paylasmam persembe'ye geldi, affola. ama instagram'da daha zamanli davraniyorum ^_^) Zira farkettim ki diger sanatcilarin bloglarinda veya facebook sayfalarinda en merakla takip ettigim seyler agirlikli olarak calisma alanlari (neyi nereye koyduklari, neyi nasil yaptiklari, hangi malzemeleri kullandiklari vs hep ufuk acici, ilham verici) Eh, yeni studyoma tasindiktan sonra hic calisma alani fotografi paylasmadigim da dusunulurse hem studyoyu temiz/duzenli tutmak hem de blogu yeniden canlandirmak icin en iyisinin boyle bir cozum olacagina karar verdim. Umarim sizin de isinize yarar :)

Iki haftadir temizlemeye, organize etmeye ve derleyip toplamaya calistigim studyomun kukla alaniyla yapmak istedim acilisi.
Sag ust raftaki kutularda eski filmlerin kuklalari ve setleri var. Bazilarinda minyatur/prop yapma malzemeleri var. Alttaki rafta sol tarafta dugmeydi ipti filan gibi disik malzemeleri ve minyatur dekorasyon malzemeleri var. Sagda da taki, incik boncuk. En alt rafta ise firin ve dikis malzemleriyle boncuklar duruyor.
Masadaki mini cekmecelerde de envai cesit ivir zivir: iplikler, kurdeleler, igneler, kukla taki malzemeleri, kukla kiyafet susleri, dugmeler, cirt cirtlar, gozler... Hatta belki ilerleyen haftalarda cekmeceliklerin iclerini de paylasirim.
Masanin kalanini daha secilir bir fotografla anlatacagim :)

Hello there! Since I realized how I enjoyed seeing other artists' studios and work spaces, I decided to share a photo from my studio every Wednesday from now on. (It happened to be on a Thursday this time, sorry for that. But I'm on time on instagram ^_^) I find it very inspiring to see how they choose to organize their spaces, the tools they're using, what they're working on and how they're working on it, etc. Also, I haven't shared any photos of my workspace since I moved to my new studio and I thought this would be the best motivation for me to keep the studio clean / organized and this blog alive. I hope you'll enjoy it too!

I wanted to start with the doll section of my studio, which I've been trying to clean and organize for the last two weeks.
On the top right shelf, in the boxes there are props and puppets from my old films as well as miniature/prop making materials. Below on the left are the buttons and strings and some miniature decoration elements (filigrees and such) and on the left are jewelry making stuff. On the bottom shelf, sits my oven next to the sewing materials like zippers and beads. In the tiny drawers on the table, I've got all kinds of itty bitty doll making stuff like eyes, buttons,  jewelry, eyelets, trims, ribbons, threads... I might even share insides of the shelf-lings on the following weeks.
I will talk about the rest of the table with a photo where it's more visible :)

Little match girl / Kibritci kiz

 

I finally finished the little match girl doll. The main material is polymer clay, blushed with pastels. Her dress is vintage silk, hand painted with fabric dyes, cocoa, cinnamon and tea. More photos after the break. Enjoy!

p.s. She's now in Art cz Gallery in Prague, in case you'd like to see her in person.

Bir onceki postta  bahsetmis oldugum 10marifet yarismasina kibritci kizimla katildim. Ana malzemesi polimer kil, elbisesi elde boyanmis vintage ipek. Daha detayli anlatim 10marifet sayfasinda. Daha fazla fotograf ise postun devaminda.

p.s. Yakindan gormek isteyenler icin, kendisi an itibariyle Prag'da Art cz Gallery'de. 

10marifet, kartopu ve kiscilik

Efenim 10marifet.org ve kartopu'nun ortaklasa duzenledigi kis temali bir yarisma var. Tam da "biraz da kis kizlari mi yapsam" diye dusundugum bir sirada duymus olmam guzel tesaduf oldu. Ayrintilar surda. Ben de simdi gidip biraz kiscilik yapayim :)

Maggie

As promised, here she is: Maggie the little steampunk girl. She's a 11cm mini doll with button joints on her shoulders and hips, but I used watch bits instead of buttons. The whole costume was super fun to make and it was my first attempt on steampunk. I think there will be more steampunk dolls in the near future :)
She's waiting to be adopted: https://www.etsy.com/listing/172647588/maggie-ooak-steampunk-posable-art-doll


Ve soz verdigim gibi, karsinizda kucuk steampunk kizi Maggie. Kendisi 11 cm boyunda, dugme eklemli bir mini kukla lakin dugme yerine saat parcalari kullandim. Kostumu yapmak super eglenceliydi. Kendisinin ilk steampunk denemem oldugunu da belirtmeden gecemeyecegim. Yakin gelecekte daha fazla steampunk kuklalari gormeye hazir olun :)
Kendileri evlan edinilmeyi bekliyor: https://www.etsy.com/listing/172647588/maggie-ooak-steampunk-posable-art-doll
