Welcome to the website of
Eileen Sedgwick the UK artist and doll-maker. Eileen has worked in art and design all her life, and this site is an online gallery of
some of the things she has created over the years, and a starting point for anyone interested in
buying work or commissioning original pieces. Eileen trained in Fine Art, and worked
as a freelance artist and designer for a time, before
going on to teach for many years in state secondary schools, specializing in large hand-built sculpture. Miniature figure making,
begun late 2003, combines many long standing interests and skills. Each is
sculpted by hand without moulds at any stage, painted, wigged, and dressed by
her, and so they are unique one-of-a-kind pieces, or artist dolls. Eileen produces a wide range of styles of figure from more traditional
historical doll-house dolls, to famous faces from books, paintings, stage or screen, to completely
original fantasy characters. Careful attention is given to quality at every stage, in workmanship,
and choice of materials. Vintage finds, natural fibres, and hand dyed, embroidered or painted
fabrics, all help to give her work a unique quality. Eileen was awarded artist status at the
British Doll-Makers Guild in 2008, she was then delighted to be invited to join Artisans in
Miniature, and to be granted membership of the British Toymaker’s Guild as an artist doll-maker in
2009. Eileen also belongs to several other Guilds and Groups including
British Miniatures, the One-of-a-kind Guild, Doll Artists and Miniature Enthusiasts group,
British Polymer Clay Guild, For the Love of Miniatures, Custom Doll-House and Miniatures and is a
supporter of IGMA. She can also be found on Facebook and MySpace and Blogspot, links are
