Greetings Everyone,

May the beginning of this New Year find you all happy and well; for those who have been touched by life's diversities I send you blessings of hope, love and all the best wishes from my heart.

Artist figure Wisakecah, one of my hand crafted figurative sculptures has won an award in the 2008 DOTY Public’s Choice® award. I am very honored and pleased to accept this award for my figurative art sculpture.

What does that mean? It means that I have been awarded a highly prestigious award from my peers in the doll industry. Wisakecah was selected out of 35 other Artist entries in his category. There were a total of over 250 entries over all in the different 16 categories this year. Be sure to read the press release from Kathryn Peck.

Winners in category 16 are as follows:

CATEGORY 16: ONE-OF-A-KIND DOLL, MORE THAN $1,500 (there are no set order in these categories)

What happens next:
These selected winners and all the other 15 Categories will go on to compete for the 2008 DOTY Public’s Choice® award, where readers and collectors cast their votes, and one doll in each category is selected. The 2008 DOTY Industry’s Choice® winners will be featured in the May issue of Doll Reader. The public cast their votes for one doll in each category.
