About Arisa & Soul Sisters’ Evolution

One day while on an Art Walk in my local town of Poulsbo, a friend mentioned that she had taken a Spirit Doll workshop and that is was a wonderful experience. Hearing the words "Spirit Dolls" was all I needed as a catalyst to ignite my imagination. When I returned home that day, I turned on the computer and googled Spirit Dolls. Wow.... what more can I say, I was hooked. It felt like I was entering a magical and whimsical world.

Consequently, here I am some years later, still passionate and immersed in the world of creating these enchanting dolls.

The process of making the dolls is just so much fun and rewarding on a spiritual and creative level. At first I was just creating the dolls as a hobby. Each doll that I displayed on the cedar posts in our log home became like my own personal totem. Her name and story come to me on an intuitive level.
This process keeps me excited and continues to feed my passion for all things magical in this life.

It all seems like a natural progression for me - the art of creating Spirit Dolls.
My mother was a very gifted storyteller and my father was a writer who wrote professionally for newspapers and magazines. I recall racing home after school and getting out the foot stool for my mother so that I could massage her feet as she told me ghost stories and many strange, magical tales from her homeland, Indonesia. As a child, I must have read every fairy tale that I could get my hands on. Because my dolls become my muse, I am inspired to write a short tale that I print onto a parchment-like scroll to accompany the dolls when purchased. These stories are also included on this website.
