Art Is...You - The East Coast Art Retreat

Lillian Alberti

Years ago, as a young fashion student in New York City, I happened upon the craftsmanship of a doll artist in a store front window. That chance discovery, as it turns out, made an impression on me. I was instantly drawn to the art of doll making. Little did I know that it would lead to nearly twenty years of great joy! I do not make an attempt to capture realism, my goal, instead, is simply to give each of my dolls a unique expressive quality. Using the experience I gained in my years in the fashion industry, I design and hand-sew all of my doll's clothing and many of their accessories. Each of my one-of-a-kind dolls receives my signature tag that tells its own unique story.

Over the years I have participated in many group shows and my work has appeared in several publications; most recently, Art Doll Quarterly Magazine (Summer 2008 & Spring 2009) and the upcoming July 2009 issue of Contemporary Doll Collector Magazine.
