The Library and
Bookstore
I love books, and my greatest source of inspiration is the
auction catalogues, available by subscription.
The beautiful color photos are wonderful for painting and costume references.
is a good source of other doll related items.
For Fashion reference and more painting references, these books are excellent. Most of them are available from Amazon.com. Simply click on the Amazon.com logo to order.
