Olga van Wyk. Well - known S A Artist. MANNEQUIN DOLL BUST. 38 cm tall. Handcrafted. HOME TREASURES.

A lovely bust of a female mannequin by the well - known and inimitable South African artist OLGA VAN WYK. It depicts a Renaissance female figure and stands 38 cm tall. It is handmade of resin and textile and hand painted in oil paint which is distressed afterwards.

The creations of Olga van Wyk can be found in top South African art galleries and in the collections of distinguished doll and art collectors in South Africa and overseas. As with all female mannequins created by Olga van Wyk, the one on offer here shows the strength and quiet grace of women, particularly regarding circumstances that may crush, be demeaning or place her in severe stressful situations. This slight discordant note of stress which Olga manages to capture beautifully is part of the appeal they have that makes them so extraordinarily popular with collectors.

There are several more images below. Please have a look at them and ask a question if you are unsure of anything. Note that only the bust is for sale and that any other objects in the images are just props.

Every mannequin (cage doll, bust or articulated sitting mannequin) Olga van Wyk creates is unique, handmade in resin and other materials and hand painted in oil paint. Space does not allow much detail on the artist, her works and the prices of her works. If the item on auction interests you, please Google it. Much detail can also be found on Pinterest and the artist's Facebook page.

I have several mannequins (busts, cage dolls and sitting articulated mannequins) for sale on Bid or Buy. Have a look at the other ones. Here's the opportunity to add a unique and genuine Olga van Wyk mannequin to you collection.
