Since making her first doll in 1989, artist 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 Engelbreit 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 upcoming one-woman show, to be held 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, extensively interviewed Ms. Wiley s family, friends, colleagues and critics to create an engaging biographical profile that traces the evolution of this dynamic artist.
