Hi, I’m Julia Fedotova! I’m a doll master and a founder of DollsForFans When I was a child I really loved playing with dolls. I didn’t differ much from many other girls in this part. My main love was a Barbie doll. My art/work began with her. My dolls were combed, changed haircuts, clothes, makeup. When I was 10 my grandmother taught me how to sew doll clothes with an old manual sewing machine. And I enthusiastically started to scribble clothes for my plastic girls. Once I became a teenager, dolls disappeared from my life for a while. After 6 years of break, I suddenly wanted to create a rag human character. It chose a rag because the natural fabric is a living material and suited best for this. For a character for my first personality doll, I decided to take an image of a married couple of my friends, as their wedding anniversary was approaching soon. The dolls turned out to be funny, clumsy, but still looked a bit like their prototypes. The guys laughed when they received them as a gift. Since then for almost 10 years I have been creating people from fabric. Now my dolls are not as clumsy as before and are more like the original characters. These are mostly well-known bright personalities of rock musicians and actors. I also create my own cute and fairy-tale characters. I really like this art, the creating process itself and the emotions of people when they open the parcel with my doll eventually. These emotions and buyer’s reviews inspire me and push forward to further achievements
