Kindred Spirit Dolls 535 Lakeshore Drive Ortonville, MN 56278 320.839.3561 mbtaffe@hotmail.com www.littlewomen-mbt.blogspot.com 3-D mixed media folk-art dolls celebrating all people. Exhibiting at home studio Directions:535 Lakeshore Dr. - One mile north on Hwy 7 (main street) from the Holiday gas station, on the left. Twenty steps down to studio. Artist Biography: Little Women are 3-D mixed media sculptures generally of the female form, but I do grandpa’s, dads, and boys as well. I use textiles, jewelry, beads, and stance to celebrate life and all cultures. Each folk art doll comes with an optional or interchangeable name and hopefully brings joy and energy to any home. http://littlewomen.blogspot.com/ Lotta Polluta is a collection of environmental-art photographs. I enhance them to emote the extreme state our lake is in due to unregulated factory farming. My grandpa, Walleye Willie, taught me to respect the lake, so I went to the water for the answers, which no government agency had. For me, Art is pushing the limits, exploring, and questioning within the context of the mind’s eye. While some photos are pretty, others are disturbing. I wonder if it’s possible to create interest first, then, awareness, empathy, or anything that will raise consciousness and make a difference—yes, in my little world, but I hope for better things for the planet as well. http://lottapolluta.blogspot.com/
