Since making her first doll in 1989, artist Nancy Wiley has earned recognition and accolades both within and outside of the doll field. Her stylise and imaginative figures have been featured in magazines such as 'Mary Engelbreit's Home Companion', 'In Style' and 'George', as well as all the major doll-making publications. The book showcases 85 of the Nancy Wiley's dolls in full colour photos, organised 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 pieces created for debut at the artist's one-woman show held in Iowa in 2004. The author is a long time writer and researcher in the field of contemporary artist dolls and has extensively interviewed Ms Wiley's family, friends, colleagues and critics to create an engaging biographical profile that traces the evolution of this dynamic artist.

Doll-making inspired by cultural icons Finding meaning in your art is one thing; doing it for the fun of the creation is another. How do they go together? Making dolls inspired by cultural icons brings new meaning to your work and helps you connect with larger universal truths. Doll makers are very conscious of and interested in the history of the human/female figure and cultural icons, and often use them as starting points for their designs. Spirit dolls, African icons, goddess figures, and Hopi katichinas are all popular forms. Using history as a starting point, Lisa-Li Hertzi has created five exciting doll projects, inspired by five very different cultural and historical icons/figures. Through the projects, she explores the creative process, the meaning and significance of each figure, and teaches techniques that doll makers are currently experimenting with: journaling, collage, mixed media, and found objects. Each doll is presented as a step-by-step project with complete instructions, and is followed by a gallery featuring interpretations by leading doll artists of the same cultural figure. Fantastic full color illustrations and patterns by the author are included.

This dollmaking process invites and encourages you to explore a range of perceptions and emotions, and in doing so, reach a deeper level of understanding and acceptance of yourself.

More than mere playthings, Enchanted Dolls are elegantly sculpted and articulated works of art. Strikingly nude, engraved or adorned in opulent sculptural costumes of precious metals, gemstones and rare found objects, each doll intricately conveys an aspect of our humanity. As Marina says 'the reason I love making dolls is because it it's a multidisciplinary art form. To create a doll I get to do it all: sculpture, industrial design, painting, engraving, mold-making, drawing, metalwork, fashion and jewellery design. I want it all!'
