This is a marvelous book that was created by the same
people that bring us the magazine, Somerset Studio. The book is a giant 175
full color pages full of the Art Dolls and their amazing story. The dolls are
wonderful and the photography is superb!
Here is an excerpt from the front cover introduction:
"In the summer of 2001, nine art dolls arrived at the
offices of Somerset Studio magazine in Laguna Hills, California, on one of the
last legs of their nearly two year journey. The dolls had been traveling all
over the country, visiting nine artists who worked on each part of a round-robin
art project. By the time they reached us, the dolls were complete, and all who
saw them were captivated...What follows is a collaborative work in its own right.
All of the artists have shared their stories of what it was like to participate
in the doll project. They've described what they learned, the friendships they
made, the challenges they overcame and, quite simply, the fun they had..."
