My dear friend Evi is a dollmaker. She has been creating all sorts of dolls for many years now with a huge following of devoted customers. Her "dolls" include wonderful rabbits and Santas, Uncle Sams, cats and dogs, birds and well, anything her imagination conjures up. Her work is exquisite in detail....she uses antique fabrics, lace and buttons and is constantly on the lookout for tiny accessories to include in her work. Evi works at home in an incredible studio that she and her husband Eb built. Their home is a work of art in itself....a mix of European, eclectic furnishings and accessories. Evi was a fashion designer years ago and her artistic talents are evident everywhere you look in her home. Her darling husband Eb is a wonderful cabinet maker and the two of them have created a space that is beyond belief. I want Evi to submit some pictures to Jo Packham's Where Women Create. What do you think?
Evi should definitely be in the mag. It's a die for workspace. I've got to get the pics from Delores and I'll send them to you so you can submit them. They are an amazing couple. I feel so lucky to know them....and you!
Grateful and content...
...life long collector of objects with history and soul; discovering my creative self and sharing bits and pieces along the way...
To live content with small means.... To seek elegance rather than luxury, and refinement rather than fashion.... To be worthy, not respectable, and wealthy, not rich.... To study hard, think quietly, talk gently, act frankly.... To listen to stars and birds, to babes and sages, with open heart.... To bear all cheerfully, do all bravely, await occasions, hurry never.... In a word, to let the spiritual, unbidden and unconscious, grow up through the common.... ...........this is to be my symphony.
Thank you to all the kindred spirits and kind souls who take the time to leave a comment......Your support and encouragement are deeply appreciated.....I read each and every message and as time allows, do my best to reply.
