Cher began drawing as soon as she could pick up a crayon.
As a child her mother was constantly washing the walls where she covered with her art drawings.
In 1968, Cher was introduced to clay and she hasn't stopped creating since. She's sculpted everything from life like characters, magical beings, animals and anything that comes to her imagination which began her exciting journey into the artistic world of creation.
In the year 1973 she won first prize for her character "Leo the Lion".
In 1987 she expanded her Art to others through the years & the international exposure of the internet, Cher's Art creations are included in over 2200 hundred private and corporate collections throughout the U.S. and European countries. From puppet museums, ventriloquists, law enforcement agencys, The list continues to go on and on.
Artistically driven and emotionally charged.
Cher dabbles in a wide variety of styles and medias. She tries to incorportate as many natural & earthy items as possible to give the more realistic effect. All Cher's artwork are original, meticulously hand sculpted that will enrich your collection. She has collectors who have as many as 30 of her pieces and continue to still bid and buy more. Now that's a impressive record! The sheer pleasure that she feels when a collector tells her that one of her creations has brought them or their child joy.
Through the years she has supplied Interior decorators with her life size art to clubs and restaurants in Downtown Chicago & throughout the midwest. Her artwork can be seen in galleries and have been sold at Renaissance festivals to auctions across the country which profits help disabled children.
Her Crusade is to help as many as she can reach through her art, whether supplying her customer with a OOAK Puppet or Figure. To donating her work which profits help disabled children. She continues to create and do as much as she can for others.
Her specialty is fantasy art because she can create without any limits. To use every part of her imagination and bring it to reality through her art. She finds herself falling into her imagination for hours and hours at a time creating.

I've been creating props and puppets for over 20 years.
Come see my art donated to our local schools and centers.
My puppets are never stamped out.
Meaning, you will always receive a one of a kind puppet which no other has.
No patterns are ever used.
Just our Imagination!
Look around through the galleries.. the website only allows me to load just a portion of all the puppets I've ever created.
So if there's something your interested in and don't see it?
ASK!
If you ask me to create your soft sculpt puppet, you'll receive photos as we go.
You pick out the colors, hair, fur, costume and so forth!
I even include a little companion to go with each puppet free of charge.
Just ask me!
So lets use our creativity and imagination and keep puppetry alive!
Talk to others through your puppet!
You'll be amazed how so many little ones would rather talk to a puppet then to a person!
So drop me a email and lets talk.
I work with any budget ( within reason please...)
My Guarantee!
What else can I guarantee?
I promise that you will love your puppet that we build together!
Since we work together through the process, your building the puppet as well with me!
May I please point a little disclaimer if I may?
Please don't build a puppet with me for weeks on end and tell me its exactly what you want and wait until I mail it, then reject it and expect me to refund the supply costs.
This is not fair to me or the kids that I donate to.
I take building puppets very seriously,
Artistically and I try to build them as low in cost as possible.
Please be kind and honest with emailing me and I promise when you open your box of your custom puppet, it will knock your socks off!
It will be Huge and everything you imagined!
