WELCOME
Welcome to
the home of
Barb Kobe's creative calling -
Designing
visual metaphors
for self-expression in the
form of dolls, healing art, and
creative, transformative
educational experiences.

Zumi - Healing Spirit Guide

The
Gifts you can receive from making dolls come in the
form of play, self- awareness, exploring
spirituality and receiving or giving healing.
On the surface the process requires time,
inexpensive materials and curiosity.
Under
the surface it requires the need and desire to
explore your very being.
Begin the journey!

"Barb
is a fabulous teacher who loves to share her many
years of experience making whimsical and soulful
"dolls". Her doll sculpting process is a
form of creative expression that engages the psyche
and brings healing and insight."
Val Olson, Minneapolis
"She
is not only unique, but compassionate, funny and knows
exactly how to make learning about yourself a
fun experience!"
"Her
work is archetypal and inspiring as artwork for
meditation and reflection too."
"The
workshops I took with her were life
transforming." "She
is great at encouraging others to trust and believe in
themselves."
"Her work is accessible, BEAUTIFUL and surprises
viewers into their opening up and healing their own
selves. "I
can trace the beginning of my own career as an artist
back to the day I spent with Barb in 1994, where her
intuition and creativity helped me see all the
possibilities within me."
"If
you have the opportunity, read through her site, she is a
wealth of information and a kind, generous soul, who
really helped me learn and
love more about ME. "

is a creative genius who goes out of her way to produce
innovative, quality products. I cannot say enough for her

CLASSES for 2013
Creative Journey Game -
In Search of Your Heroine
This process is a
way of identifying your journey, of seeing the ongoing threads, themes or
patterns in your life trek. It permits you to see the linkage between
events and people in a way that provides meaning about yourself and those
in your life. This contributes to personal well-being, a greater sense of
direction and meaning and a connection to a higher part of yourself.
Lots of NEW
DOLLS
in Gallery
"Recently
the definition of what a doll is has been scrutinized by western doll
artists and collectors, whose criteria are based only on aesthetic appeal.
But others understand that a doll should not only follow the rules and concepts for
what is pleasing to the eye, but that it should also have the ability to cure,
to instruct and even to protect."
