About Morgan

Morgan who was raised in central illinois, is married to her husband John. They live upstairs in an historic building in downtown Delavan which houses her gallery, studio and class room. She has always been interested in art, such as, drawing, painting and clothing design.

It seems that today her art dolls and animals, as well as her teaching the arts is a merging of careers which has included custom clothing design, wedding gowns, upholstery, interior design, antiques dealer and many more but all have brought her to be an art doll and animal artist. Remnants of my past careers fill every nook of my studio. These remnants are my inspiration as well as the people I meet, The animals I see, the books I read and the beauty in nature. The ideas never end and as a piece emerges from my hands it is almost magical. From newborns, bears, Santas, family pets or just about anything. All of my pieces are one-of-a-kind.

I sculpt in pro-sculp polymer clay, fabric sculpting and needle felting. The pcs range in size from 1 inch to life size and reflect the whimsical and the real and hopefully they will touch your heart and make you smile.
