A Corpse Bride

I just finished my first OOAK hanging art doll! She's made of paper clay and acrylics, with yarn for the hair, fabric for the dress and her purse, and reindeer moss stuck on her dress and randomly in her hair. Her dress is tattered, torn, and very worn.

Meet Lillith. She was lighthearted and full of spunk when she met the man of her dreams . She was only eighteen, but he was a good, kind man and showered her with love. They were to be married just four months later.



A love that was doomed from the start, her groom was captured by a rare pack of Eastern Dragons. Lillith fled the hills and headed straight to the mountains, the dragons’ territory. She would find a way to be united with her groom, whether it was in life or death. The ragged terrain proved to be too much for her weakening condition and she fell to her demise.

To this day, she still searches for her groom. A small smile plays upon her lips, as she knows she will someday find her true love again.
