My People have been collected on an international level. They reside is many countries around the world.
After creating over 700 dolls from historical records, folklore and information taken from museums and auction houses, several emerged as favorites:
EARTH MOTHER
She is the one who provides for us and brings forth
wisdom from all things natural. Care for her before
she takes the path of the past; tread softly on the
earth - she is your mother.
SKY WOMAN
She fell from the land of the Sky People to plant a
branch on the back of Great Sea
Turtle and create the North American continent.
CHEROKEE ROSE
This doll represents the famous Cherokee Trail of Tears.
It is said, for every tear that fell to earth, a wildflower
blooms between the Carolina's and Oklahoma. This character
is always created with a tear running down her face.
There are other characters that follow close behind in popularity: White Buffalo Calf Woman, Storyteller, Tehan, Dream Spirit, Warrior Woman, Corn Maiden and Butterfly Woman.
New characters are researched and emerging every year: Code Talker and Star Lily along with those recording historical dress and regalia from pow wow.
Every one is hand carved to impart their spirit from me as I create and there are no two alike, They all come with a certificate that gives the story of the first No Face doll along with the story of the doll that the certificate represents along with her name and number in the chronological order the doll is created.
