"Wizards, Gnomes, Elves & More"

Joan Tang made her first faceless dolls when very young, sewing and embroidering their clothes. Study of painting, graphic art and pottery developed her skill in bulding wire skeletons for her lifesize "dolls", pinching the molded heads into eloquent features, forming lifelike hands and expressive eyes.

Joan has peopled her show with the Christmas spirits of fantasy, myth and magic. It is a warm world of kindness and laughter.
