Hello, my name is Grace Garton, since 2016 I have been working as a full-time artist and running my small doll making business. I work on my own, designing and making original anthropomorphic animals from unbleached, 100% cotton calico that I distress with coffee.
For some of the art dolls, I design, I also paint and add individual embroidered details.
In the past, I have used fiberfill to stuff my dolls, I will soon be switching to 100% wool roving and fabric offcuts.
Where possible I recycle fabrics, use vintage buttons, thread and wool.
My watercolours and paintings are all originals.

5 out of 5 starsAnother superb jewel-like work of art by Grace. I find the mixture of materials in her paintings fascinating, and the small scale just perfect.

Grace Garton's Little Black Crow Studio. a discombobulated artist and doll maker
Grace Garton is an artist and doll maker residing in Lindisfarne, Tasmania.
Leaving a 25 year career in animation behind in 2006, grace began her art and craft business making cloth dolls and mixed media paintings.
Her cloth dolls are reproduced to give an antique look and feel of a well-loved doll. The dolls are coffee stained and hand painted. Their tiny tailored clothes are carefully sewn with attention to fabrics and detailing.
Grace’s paintings are inspired by the memories and stories from childhood and fairy tales. “A story evolves in my mind and the canvas becomes a stage for all my characters to act out on”

Additional policies and FAQs
* Dolls are not suitable for children due to small parts, delicate detailing, and coffee and varnish finish.
*Dolls are collector's items.
I love making these dolls and put in a lot of work to make them the best that I can. Being the artist of these dolls at times I find some of my dolls are never finished and may change them a little, like painting in shoes or adding a bit more embroidery details.
Photos will be updated asap, hopefully before a purchase is made. If not I will inform the buyer of these changes.
All that is required to look after these dolls by keeping them out of direct sunlight and a light dust.

Custom Designs and Special Orders:
The experience of making custom orders has been a happy and enjoyable one. I more than welcome the opportunity to work with and create something special for you and your loved ones.
I can reproduce a similar doll that has sold from my shop or create a new one with your choice of colours.
I recently had a custom order to replicate two old children's dolls in my style, which was a lot of fun.
