was born in Germany and moved to Southern California in 1984. I started
doll making as a hobby in my home country and began teaching others to make
dolls in California. During the past 25 years I have taught hundreds of
workshops for various and sundry organizations and have created original
dolls for private collectors. In addition to teaching and giving workshops,
I have donated dolls for many charitable fundraisers. My dolls have been
shown and sold in California and Oregon, but what makes me happiest is to
hear that my students have won prizes at county fairs and doll competitions.
I love the creative process combined with honing my sewing skills. I love
to enable my students by bringing out their own talents. I currently live
in Corvallis, Oregon, where I am active in the community and as a volunteer.
One of my favorite pastimes is being in nature, exploring new trails while
hiking or biking witness to the beauty of Oregon. I love reading, gardening,
baking, and creating beauty. |
