Doris Stannat was born in Vancouver, Canada, but since her childhood, and now with her own family with two daughters, she has lived in a small town in Bavaria, Germany. She was very creative and imaginative even as a child, so that she always looked for an artistic outlet in her life, to balance her profession as a spokesperson. After jewelry designing and painting, she discovered the material Modelene at a doll show. Ever since, all her passion has gone into sculpting dolls. This is her way of expressing her love for humanity and for life. While sculpting, it is as if she is transported into a wondrous, magical world, and she enters into her dreams and her doll creations in a positive and loving state. Even her very first little baby dolls found much appreciation with collectors, and the most beautiful feeling for her is to know that she can give so many people joy and balm for the soul. This recognition is what continues to drive Doris to keep on creating these little darlings. She is especially honored, in addition to all of the audience awards, when she is recognized by expert judges, who by now have awarded seven DOTY's for her dolls.
