Lindsay Wagner by *noeling on deviantART
Anyway, here's my little tribute to her in doll form. I used a 16-inch Mrs. Coulter doll from the Golden Compass Series produced by Tonner & Co. I thought the sculpt was just perfect for Lindsay's 3-d portrait. . . .

in reply to jose fuentes Hello Jose,

I apologize for the delayed response as I have been very busy lately. First of all, I thank you for such awe-inspiring comments and kind words.

It means a lot to me to know that through my work, I am able to provide inspiration to others. It is a tremendous enough blessing for me to be given the gift to create art, but even bigger blessing to know that I am able to affect people.

I am so sorry to hear about your condition and it is my hope that you will be able to overcome this and have the strength through all of this.

I will email you later regarding your repaint questions. Again, thank you so much and I wish you well as you vernture into repainting!

All the best,
Noel
