About Me:

I grew up in a small town in Southern Ontario near Niagara Falls, went to art school in Metropolitan Toronto, worked in retail packaging, printing, restaurant and manufacturing industries as a Marketing Coordinator, packaging coordinator, Executive Assistant over the years. I've dabbled in illustration, jewelry, teaching, and woodworking and doing the Southern Ontario Craft show circuit.

About 10 years ago I accepted a transfer to Winnipeg where I was inspired a by a friend to start making cloth dolls a few years ago. I continued doing craft shows there, continuing to make dolls and jewelry. I moved back to the GTA a few years ago and continued doing the art show circuit here. Over the years I have sold dolls Internationally on ebay as I continuously learn my craft.

I am now an artist member of the Canadian Doll Artists Association. You will find that most of my dolls are in the fantasy category. I wonder if it has something to do with my Celtic heritage or more to do with my active imagination. For whatever reason these creatures creep forth from my dreams to my fingertips and finally to you!

Enjoy!

The works of Brian & Wendy Froud, Jim Henson, fantasy writers and movie makers.
