Janet Manderscheid

Artist in Residence:

Janet Manderscheid

By All Citizens (Tyler Brett)

Janet Manderscheid is a self-taught doll maker and master of the art of transforming recycled materials and “metal from the local junk pile” into garden sculpture. This past November I had the opportunity to meet up with Janet at her home in Bruno where she gave me a tour of her outdoor art and landscaping projects. During our visit I also learned a little about her extraordinary doll making expertise and toured the ground floor of a doll house that she’ll be building over the winter. Please follow the link below to see photos of her work and read text excerpts from her biography, “Endless Dreams”.

Warmest Regards, Tyler
