Here's our matreshka doll in a basket in my studio. I let children play with her, so she is frequently missing a generation or two.
I love matreshka dolls so much that I decided to paint some out of gouache. These are originals, not prints. I just put them in my etsy shop.

Royal Blue Matreshka DollThis last matreshka is made of color-aid paper collage. Color-aid paper is silk-screened in hundreds of luscious colors. I have covered a table in my studio with color-aid paper, and am having some colorful days doing paper collage.
