I’m getting ready for my upcoming collaborative class, class EVER AFTER 2017, where I join 15 mixed media artists and together we will teach you about our art and techniques, how to develop your own style and we will have painting classes for you. I wanted to make a few painting land lessons about them, […]
I like to read old doll making books because they have techniques for doing everything by hand (I’m old school like that) and I came across this quote. It really hit a string for me, because it encompasses everything I believe about making my own dolls. Mass produced items have a perfect quality about them, but […]
I am having a great time and work creating an art doll collection. I have been working non stop on the dolls and I thought it would be fun to stop for a moment to tell you the story of the doll creation using images from the doll making process and turning the tale into a mini tutorial. […]
They say that the UPS truck is the adult version of the ice cream truck. And you know what? They are right! Today the truck arrived and left a package on my doorstep that I have been waiting for a long time. Want to see what it is? It’s a huge box of Derwent inktense […]

Lady Clementine is one of my latest paper clay, handmade art dolls. She has a very interesting story on how she evolved and changed as I was bringing her into our world, and I thought it will be fun to show you. Well, you already know that everything starts with an idea, and sometimes this idea […]
It had been some time since I made dolls, my art exhibition had me very busy painting and then summer vacation and looking after my kids came along, so I go on a pause during the summer months. But then the urge to create is very strong, and I really can’t stay too long without […]
On June 8th, 2016, I had the honor to have my second solo exhibit at Gameros Manor, in my hometown, Chihuahua, Mexico. The museum I showed is a beautiful Art Noveau mansion built in 1910 that now serves as the regional art museum of Chihuahua. I was lucky enough to show my art on one […]
I have been very busy lately getting the last details of my online watercolor class ready to start on June 6th.
