I adore art...true art...art in it's purest form. For me...the object is enhanced when the artist creates for the sheer love of making something beautiful. Their work is no longer solely a means of income, it's an accurate reflection of the artist's inner person and being. Nothing in this year's convention lineup exemplifies this for me moreso than Victoire Roux. Victoire's designer, Chris Stoeckel, has long surpassed "creating"...Chris has shown us his inner self in her creation. Her beauty is unsurpassed. She's a triumph. Thank you Chris, for sharing yourself with us in this beautiful doll.
