After 12 years of creating
2-dimensional fibre art, I needed to take a break and renew my creative
energies with a new art form.
Cheryl Smith taught me
all I needed to know to become addicted to this mode of artistic
expression. See her website here: www.magpieartworks.com

This is very time
consuming since 95% of the work is done by hand, but I found myself
completely immersed in learning how to make my visions come to life
in soft sculptures.
Several technical challenges were presented as my ideas
became more ambitious and complex. Marianne Reitsma's doll club in Ajax, Ontario,
continues to provide opportunities for learning new techniques and experiments with
different materials.

It's been a wonderful journey, and I can't imagine not having a doll
in-progress. I hope you enjoy viewing my forays
into figurative soft sculpture. Check back often, as this gallery will
continue to expand!
