Inspiring Artist - P Brigitte Coovert
In hunting down one of my new christmas presents (a new Pullip doll from Valley of the Dolls), my hub and I made a discovery - a new artist and what will be for many- a new medium- introducing ZOMBUKI's!
Artist Brigitte Coovert customizes Pullip, Dae and Blythe dolls to become what she playfully calls Zombuki's:
Zombuki, a combination of the words “zombie” and “kabuki,” was a term dreamed up with the help of a friend some time ago. Zombukis are meant to be a hybrid of many styles and cultures (the zombie itself being both alive and dead), able to embody many looks, to be chimeras of the doll world.
- P Brigitte Coovert
As soon as I discovered there was a book entitled Zombuki's Love You - I bought it! Especially since the dolls themselves, being original artist pieces and an investment, can be expensive.
I was also thrilled to see that Ms. Coovert has a phenomenal Zombuki gallery page with stunning photography that MUST BE Seen by all so please click on GALLERY! She also has a beautiful Flickr Page in which she features Desktop Wallpaper Images FOR PERSONAL USE only - which I think is quite generous!!
