Gender Female

Occupation OOAK art doll sculptor, jewelry designer
Location Anaheim Hills, California, United States
Introduction After working 15 years in the field of respiratory therapy as a CRTT, I found my passion for sculpting which has gradually evolved over the years. Having started with antique style Santa Clauses and primitives, I now sculpt one of a kind, or "OOAK" fairies, babies, orangutans, and various other creatures without the use of molds. Using only my fingers and a few basic sculpting tools, I sculpt from various polymer clays including ProSculpt,Fimo, and Puppenfimo. My work conveys my love for innocent and obliging creatures. I feel truly blessed that I have been given the talent to create these little beings. Before moving to California in 2000, I had my own shop/studio in the historic town, Tipp City, Ohio. I loved being a shopkeeper in the quaint "Mayberry" type town, but with the move, I began selling my work on ebay and occasionally take on commissioned work. I would like to mention my new found love for soldering broken china, slide pendants, and my very own Vanity Pendants™. You can see my work and purchase it at www.toodlesocks.com. I am happy to offer some free sculpting tutorials here on my blog.
