About the Artist
Born and raised in Chicago, Illinois, Kathy has been a fan of science fiction and fantasy since she was old enough to read. When she discovered she couldn't draw, dollmaking became the perfect creative outlet. She was named the official soft sculptor of Faery in 2001. Kathy's creations are all cloth, but may be embellished with anything from sticks and twigs to sequins, beads and vintage jewelry. Many pieces are one of a kind, but sometimes she has to make a piece in every possible color so everybody can have one! Now living in Connecticut with her husband and several cats, Kathy sells her work at local juried art fairs, and by mail. Special orders are welcome. "I attempt to show the fantastical that exists alongside the everyday. Sometimes it is strange, sometimes familiar, and sometimes a little of both."
