So what a cool feeling...having your work published in a magazine! The Magazine is Art Doll Quarterly and it has been my favorite magazine ever since I found Dollmaking! It's the Spring Summer Issue and I have a beautiful spread with a Tutorial ! I'm overjoyed...I feel very excited and grateful! I think everyone should send their work in to feel this feeling!!!

I just received my copy of the magazine and loved your spread. I know what you mean about that thrill when you open such a beautiful national magazine and see your creation leap from its pages. Many Congratulations!
Your art is beautiful and i can't wait to try out your technique. Tho my dolls are primarily cloth, i do love mixing media to see what shakes out.

Congrats on having your work published in ADQ. Your dolls are amazing!
I finally got my hands on a copy after weeks of searching... from a friend in Boston,,,,,none of the Barnes and Nobele stores here carry ADQ!!! I am so excited and thrilled for you. The spread was magificent and a testament to the brilliance and beauty of both you and your work! Congratulations...Let me know, if you ever sell any...I would love to buy one.....Congratulations!..Jean
Oh I love your dolls, especially Annie Rose but I can't find the summer issue in the 2 stores that carry Art Doll Quarterly here. I guess I waited too long so I'm going to have to order it online. I've been telling everybody that 'my blog friend' Colleen got her dolls published in my fav magazine!!! Keep going Colleen - your dolls are special!
That was yours? I loved the article.
I thought the mermaid holding the dancing shoes was poignant.
All the above dolls are wonderfully made its really great piece of crafting and art. I do love clay doll making and have huge range of models.
