Vera Smirnova

Hello! I am Vera Smirnova: photographer, graphic designer and doll maker. Sounds like a lot of hats, but actually, they all are just different ways to create things. I create photographs from what I see around me and I create dolls from what I see inside myself. My dolls are more than art of self-expression - they meant for people. When I work on a doll, I have certain person in mind, whether it is my old friend or my new customer. I think of these people, I feel them, I get connected with them somewhwere deeply inside, so when doll is created, it becomes truly their. Something like long lost old friend coming back to them. These merry, somewhat naïve dolls make every home bright and happy.
Here are some technicalities:
free-standing dolls are about 17-18 inches tall, tilda angels are a bit taller, but they are displayed seated. I do have some ready-to-go dolls for sale and I also take an orders. To order yours please fill out contact form.
These dolls are meant for interior decorating, not for childrens play.
