ABOUTI feel very blessed that I was able to discover the art of doll making in mylife. The first time I visited an art doll exhibition I was overwhelmed andimmediately felt that I wanted to belong to that magic world.I cannot imagine my life without dolls and doll making! I am never shortof inspiration, and I have more ideas in my head than I can make in mylife!Looking through "doll-eyes" at the world is how I see every day.I believe that the basics of doll making is excellent craftsmanship but alsoit goes beyond this.Doll making involves expression and recognizing emotions together withusing high quality materials, so this means doll making is a"never ending story"!Ankie Daanenhttps://ankie-doll-art.com/ page 3All Rights Reserved Ankie Daanen© Click Video Icon!!!
https://ankie-doll-art.com/ page 4From my studio in The Netherlands (Holland) , where we live, I work on my creations daily, trying to make the ultimate doll thatcommunicates everything I want to say.Being a workaholic, spending many hours a day making dolls, preparingclasses, working on on-line classes and doll-related things, I neverexperience a dull moment!One of the most important elements is to infuse my creations with asoul. Dolls with a soul are my passion.I like my dolls to be happy, sad, humorist, or even mystical.They should give you a feeling that they have a life and soul, and thatthey bring to you an intimate connection as if they have a human spirit.Recognizing this soul contributes to the experience of looking at eachdoll as a piece of art. My passion for doll making and artistic pursuitsbegan very early in my life.I was born in The Netherlands and even as a child I was always lookingfor beautiful things. I think I wanted to live my life like being in a fairy-tale.Growing up with only brothers I did not share my fantasy world, but mydolls became my best friends! As a child I was constantly searching forways to express my artistic abilities.My mother sewed my clothes, and a large part of my childhood wasspent seated beside my mom’s sewing machine, waiting for left-overscraps of fabrics to make ballroom dresses for my Barbie dolls.This great love of fabrics remains today.All Rights Reserved Ankie Daanen©
https://ankie-doll-art.com/ page 5I am inspired by beautiful materials, laces, and trims to design mycostumes.Initially my dream was to have a career as a ballet dancer, opera singeror designer. Unfortunately, my parents at those days did not share thisidea of going to art school. So I attended an educational academy andbecame a teacher.After teaching for five years, I began searching for an opportunity toexpress my creative energy. I was attracted to the conservatory where Istudied music and I became a music teacher. I undertook this career for13 years, but was still searching for something more, not knowing whatthat should be. Then I visited a doll exposition. I went there to look andwas blown away! Seeing these dolls hit me right in the middle of myheart. This was what I wanted to do!After returning to that exhibition three times, I realized that my passionin life was to become a doll maker. That doll show changed my life!In my pursuit of the craft, I began to take doll making lessons and soon Istarted to teach myself.Nowadays I like to work with Creative paper clay and porcelain.I love the charm of a very smooth skin, which I can achieve with both,paper clay and porcelain.Through the years of being a doll maker I've developed my own stylewhich I share with many of my students. Being able to teach dollmaking around the world has allowed me to pass own my passion fordoll making to many students. All Rights Reserved Ankie Daanen©

I loveto teach and share my knowledge. My goal is always to create theultimate doll.Connecthttps://ankie-doll-art.com/ * ankiedaanen@hotmail.comAt the moment I considermyself as a very luckydoll maker.

About 25 years ago I started working with porcelain slip.To use slip you first had to make the prototype, and then youneeded to make the mold for every part of the doll youneeded. For example: the head, hands, feet, and body...This was a very time-consuming job, but I liked it very much.Many different dolls came out of my molds and they did findtheir way to collectors and shops from around the world.https://ankie-doll-art.com/ page 38W O R K I N G I N P O R C E L A I NAll Rights Reserved Ankie Daanen©

Almost RoyalPaper Clay M Y L O V E F O R P A P E R C L A Y5
Japanese Creative Paper Clay and Styrofoam became my best friendson the day I decided not to work in porcelain anymore. When welived in Spain the electrical system was not very strong. So I tried touse a medium that I did not need to go in a kiln.I started to work with the creative paper clay.When starting with a new medium it takestime to get use to it to achieve the best results.Paper and glue, these are the properties ofpaper clay, which is one of the oldestingredients used especially for dolls andpuppets. Once dry it is very, very strong andwill last forever.I also discovered Styrofoam which made itpossible for me to cut different shapes andcover these with paper clay. A new world ofpossibilities entered into my doll making life.I love it!!!I use watercoulor to paint the faces,hands and feet (nails), acrylic paint forshoes and body parts, MAT varnishfrom TALENS for watercolour to sealthe parts, and a halogen convectionoven if I want to speed dry the clay.Working withCreative Paperclay

Animal DollsPaper Clay
https://ankie-doll-art.com/ page 101I enjoy making an animal looking like a human being (anthropomorphic).It brings a delightful smile on faces. Even though we have seen manyimages of live animals so many times it is a different story when one isbeing sculpted in anthropomorphic way.Then you really have to dive into the anatomy of theanimal you want to sculpt.All Rights Reserved Ankie Daanen©

For me it is not a problem to find ideas inmy head to create my dolls.I have more ideas than I have time tocreate them. But I still gather hundreds ofpictures with all kinds of inspirationalimages. I find these pictures in theatrebrochures, books and especially childrenbooks, fashion magazines, Pinterest andinternet searches.It's a good idea to create a scrapbook soyou can always rely on having ideas readywhen you want to start sculpting orcostuming your next projectThis way you can build your ownlibrary on ideas.Enjoy the fun!Finding Inspirationhttps://ankie-doll-art.com/ page 279All Rights Reserved Ankie Daanen©
