I have to say that Garel ( My Husband) is as much a part of 
the doll  industry as I am.

If any one thinks we do it alone, that is not the case; there is always
some one who does everything along side of the artist and that is
my husband  for me.

I feel I came from an artist family;  my Grandmother was an artist
of oils my Great Uncle was a wood craver that really carved ones
faces in wood and was an excellence pencile artist  ; my Mother is
an  artist  that works with embrodry and  my father that has passed
also was an oil artist.
I am the only sculptor in the family ; I found clay early on and as far as I can remember I was always interested in
capturing faces in clay.

Over the years I have invented the Perfect Eye tool that makes it easy to make ones own eyes for their sculpts
as well as making  armatures to sculpt over.

I have 3 grown children my oldest daughter (Dawn, my son Troy and my youngest daughter Andrea that have
been so great over the years with understanding how Mom has to sculpt.

I also have 4 wonderful Grandchildren  ;  3 boys and one girl  ranging for the ages of 2 to the age of 18.

As an artist for the last 28 years I have been very blessed  in many ways to be a part of such a great group of
people and collectors.

I love the sculpting as well as the teaching to be able to share with others has been so wonderful.

In 2007 I  had the chance to share with others my skills that I deloveped over the years of how to sculpt on a
DVD, and in 2008 I look forward to having a follow up DVD as well as a book.

I would like to thank all of you that have made my dreams  possible with all of your support.
