I am a passionate Dollhouse and Doll enthusiast. When I can't find what I want...I make it. This has led to wonderful adventures meeting artists in the field and creating my own work. One of the greatest joys of collecting is to share that passion with others. I am a founding member of the Renaissance Doll Study Club, a chapter of the United Federation of Doll Clubs. If you have a passion for dolls and dollhouses and live in Southern California, please let us know so we can arrange for you to be a guest at one of our meetings or presentations.
By day I was a long time VFX and Animation Producer, you can find my credits on Films such as Madagasgar and the Tinker Bell Movie and on Video Games such as World of Warcraft, Starcraft and Overwatch.
Now that I am retired, I have been able to devote more time to the study of antique dolls and dollhouses. Building on those Antique traditions through modern re-creations helps teach history and give historical and artistic perspective to these fabulous items. For information on my lectures and dollhouse programs please contact me or leave a note here.
Hello Noel~ Oh my! Please tell me what kind of dog you have? We had one just like her for 13 years - her name was Annie and from what I can see in your picture, she looked just like her. She just showed up on our doorstep as a puppy and no one ever knew what kind of dog she was. We figured a chow/shepherd mix. Anyway, we miss her so very much and it did my heart good to see your Elle Dee! :) Nena
Elle Dee is a Keeshond. That is a dutch breed. They are sometimes called Dutch Barge Dogs. They were quite the favored dogs of the Elizabethan Court as they have white ruffs that, when brushed, stand up around their necks like the court ladies' collars did. The dogs are bred soley for compansionship and serve no useful purpose...to which I can attest! LOL.
