| 01/26/06 The information below comes directly from Pauline's web site. Pauline began to sculpt and create her "children" in the mid 80's and has not only become recognized for her talent in her native Australia, but is fast making inroads into international markets. Over the past eight years, trips to the United States have seen Pauline awarded trophies at the International Doll Expo (IDEX) on almost every occasion. In 1998 Pauline won the IDEX "Best One of a Kind" award for her "Mary Lou". 1999 saw the "Best Porcelain Doll over $1300" award going to Pauline's "Margot". In 2000 and 2002 Pauline was awarded "DOTY" award nominations (Doll Of The Year) for "Ayla" and "Tina". Again, 2004 saw a DOTY Nomination awarded to Pauline for her "Gracie". Pauline works, with her partner Bob, from their Studio home in the beautiful coastal village of Inverloch on the south east coast of Victoria, Australia. Inspiration for new work is gained from photographs, from children seen in their travels, or occasionally, the visions are simply in the mind. Over the years Pauline has gained a reputation for her work portraying Australian Aboriginal, and African American children, and these have become a trademark of Pauline's work. Pauline recently commented..."The lips, eyes and noses allow for definition, and are such an important aesthetic part of the final creation. They are such beautiful Children". | ||
