Welcome To Dreams By Annie
Artisian, Hand Crafted, OOAK - One Of A Kind, Hand Sculpted Dolls In Polymer Clay - 1:12 Dollhouse and Larger
Hi, my name is Annie Ross, better known as Dreams By Annie. For a very long time I was known under Fantasies By Annie but the name was stolen from me, maybe for the best. I started looking at pictures over the last couple of days and realized that I have been sculpting longer than I though I had. It was sometime late 2003 when I got my start. Meeting others on line in little groups. I was a collector turned sculptress. I worked with many different types of figures and in later 2006 I found some roots in miniatures. I still look to create something new and unsual and even larger scale faeries now and then just to break things up. I have resently desided to play with making a couple of beds. Not to worry anyone, it is not my intention to attempt selling them at this point! LOL! My husband and I have jumped back into dollhouses and room boxes so you will see some of this as well.
What You Need To Know!!!
Nearly all dolls that I create are nude! Please do not page through my site if nudity offends you. I work with the human body, I am not a fashion designer. I was not gifted with both talents.
Look for new and upcoming dollhouses and room boxes by Eric Ross
Eric has worked hard to make room boxes for me while I sculpted little people to put in them. Now that the show is over he has decided to do some of his own creating! I think we are in a bit of a competition right now actually! LOL! Who can do the biggest and the best! So keep an eye out for Eric here. I'm sure he is going to come out on top with this one.
Customizing In Progress!
I was talked into doing a new and improved website so I'm giving it my best. This is also not one of my talented areas! LOL! But I do plan to add a few new things on the site. There will be photos from 3 or 4 other shows as well as the Chicago International at the Three Blind Mice. I intend to give my husband a page just for his own creations. He has been very supportive of me through the shows and custom orders as well as the house that doesn't get cleaned or dishes that don't get done! LOL! This is because I do also work a full-time job so time for ME is a premiun!
I will have these pages up and running again as quickly as possible but please check back often because knowing me they will never be complete!
What's Coming Up
I thought I should make it known that I don't intend to do shows much anymore, as if I have done alot! 4 mini shows under my belt in all this time. I am considering Dayton in August 2010 and if I do go I am not planning anything beyond that. The hubby does say that if we don't make Dayton this year he would like to try next year. I think we are slowing down. I have to also admit that all of the traveling is not worth the cost without any profit.
I have to consider the fact that I work a full-time job and have a home and husband to care for and when I decide to do shows everything is thrown to the side until all of the pieces are made and by then catching up again is nearly impossible. I don't deal well with stress and in this case I have it going in and and coming out. I'm not so sure that it is worth it for me. If anyone has thoughts or ideas on this I am all ears! I need all of the help I can get!
I am more than happy to take oreders from anyone that is interested in a particular piece. I never asked for a deposit but after a bite or two I have to do so now. Cost always depends on the project so contact me and we'll talk it over!! I always look forward to talking to you!
