Hello world!
We are a group of doll-makers. Our dolls are not toys, but rather works of Art. Some people say we are sculptors, and I guess we are. Most of us began our artistic journey creating dolls from patterns, perhaps for play things for children and gradually moved onto creating our own designs, working in cloth, clay, fibers and other materials. Our evolved creations are now figurative sculptures, but because of our beginnings we tend to cling to the term doll-maker to describe ourselves, and we call our creations Art Dolls.

We work in variuos media; create art-works of varying themes; are from different geographic areas but are united in the passion of creating figurative art. We created the group Dolls as ART, to be a support group and an exhibiting group. We are based in New York state, but invite all makers of Art Dolls to join our group. You can learn more about our group at our web-page www.dollsasart.com. You can also find us on facebook: Dolls As ART

We welcome you to our blog whether you are an art doll maker, a lover of art dolls or a lover of fine art. Here, on our blog, you will learn about our artist members, our group's events and see images of many of the works of art our members create. Please stop by often.
