ROBERT
McKINLEY`S DOLLMAKING WORKSHOP
"A teacher is like a candle...it consumes itself
to light the way for
others. "
This was BOB McKINLEY.
"He spent countless hours creating this wonderful
teaching tool. (
originally four videotapes, over eight hours of viewing
time ) ! Even
when he knew how ill he was , he kept on going until the
task was
done.
This was BOB McKINLEY.
We worked together on the editing with him pausing to
rest at many
intervals. ( He was so tired by this time ). Bob knew
this was to be
the last thing he would do and he wanted it done right...and
it was.
This was BOB McKINLEY.
It is so right and so comprehensive it has become the
dollmaking bible
for artists worldwide... and it has become his legacy.
We now offer it as a two DVD set and it is an invaluable
treasure in
more ways than can be enumerated here.
You`ll see. "

Dollmaker’s Art: The Creations of Nancy Wiley

has earned recognition and accolades both within and outside
of the doll field. Her stylized and imaginative figures
have been featured in magazines such as Mary Englbreit’s
Home Companion, In Style and George, as well as all the
major doll-collecting publications. A Dollmaker’s
Art showcases 85 of Ms. Wiley’s dolls in full-color
photos, organized by theme and presented with insightful
commentaries from the artist, and includes a step-by-step
photo essay that demonstrates the development of one doll
from start to finish.
The collection includes several never-before-seen pieces
created for debut at the artist’ s one-woman show
at the Muscatine Art Center in Iowa from August 15-December
19, 2004. Author Louise Fecher, longtime writer and researcher
in the field of contemporary artist dolls, who also wrote
Here Come the Bride Dolls (Portfolio Press, 2001), extensively
interviewed Ms. Wiley’s family, friends, colleagues
and critics to create an engaging biographical profile
