Years ago, as a young fashion student in New York City, I happened upon the craftsmanship of a doll artist in a store front window. That chance discovery, as it turns out, made an impression on me. I was instantly drawn to the art of doll making. Little did I know that it would lead to nearly twenty years of great joy! I do not make an attempt to capture realism, my goal, instead, is simply to give each of my dolls
a unique expressive quality. Using the experience I gained in my years in the fashion industry, I design and hand‐sew all of my doll’s clothing and many of their accessories. Each of my one‐of‐a‐kind dolls receives my signature tag that tells its own unique story. Over the years I have participated in many group shows and my work has appeared in many doll
related publications. I now travel and teach Art doll‐making workshops allover! Please visit my on‐line gallery:http://www.a‐lil‐whimsy.com
My Art dolls are one‐of‐a‐kind made with cloth and batting over a wire
armature. All faces, hands and feet are sculpted of various paper clay mediums. I hand paint all details and make all the costumes.
