Chris Boston Original Dolls

The Chris Boston Original Doll Story ....... so far.......

Since 1987, Chris Boston has exhibited in a wide range of galleries, shows and exhibitions in Australia, Germany and the United States of America accumulating a formidable array of awards along the way. As a result she is now recognised as one of Australia's most highly regarded artists in her chosen field.

Her dolls and creatures are all original, one-of-a-kind pieces which she designs, sculpts and finishes entirely by hand.  Each piece is genuinely unique being a product of her own imagination.

I am honoured to count Chris amongst my special friends and we collaborate together to create truly magical exhibitions which are designed to invoke memories of the Christmas Window Displays that we all visited as children.

Chris are I were lucky enough to attend the Philadelphia Faerie Convention in 2007 where we were blessed to meet many world renowned faerie artists including Brian and Wendy Froud, Kinuko Craft and Josephine Wall.  We had the best time and I have included a happy snap of our adventure here for you.  I have also included an image of the two of us at the recent Lollipop Land Display that was held at the Gold Coast Show.

Our Bejewelled Fantasea Exhibition in 2009 was an outstanding success. There are only just a few pieces still available for sale and if you are interested in purchasing them, you will find them in the catalogue section of my web-site. If you visit You Tube you will see that I have created a slide-show of the Bejewelled Fantasea characters. Once you are in there, grab yourself a cuppa while it's loading and then restart it to watch it without all the stopping and starting. Enjoy!

I hope that you will fall in love with Chris' work as I have done and trust me, beautiful creations such as these can only come from the hands and heart of a beautiful person.  Each doll that Chris creates is a reflection of her passion for her work and for the world in which she lives.

In 2011 Chris and I held our first-ever Fairy Workshop Weekend Retreat and it was an outstanding success. We all had such a wonderful weekend together that the ladies who joined us cannot wait for us to do it all again! I have included some images from the workshop here and if you would like to know more about where and when we will be holding workshops in 2012, please contact me to register your interest or visit the workshop page at www.chrisboston.com.au.
