“Blissfully Good” is a collaboration of the unusual minds of Dottie Bliss and Bunny Goode. Dottie and Bunny are highly talented doll artists, designers and instructors working in the greater New York/New Jersey area. Their individual creations are inspired by mixing real life people and fantasy characters to create their slightly off-center flock of doll personalities.
|
|
|
|
Their trademark slogan, “These ain’t your Grandma’s dolls” is quite evident when you see their doll display at exhibitions and shows. Though both of these gifted women have their own unique style, the public sees the display as a cohesive mix of beauty and humor. Their work is so intertwined that it is difficult to see where one leaves off and the other one begins.

Even with the success of “Blissfully Good”, Dottie and Bunny remain separate entities. Each artist operates a successful business of their own, and they join forces for shows and exhibitions. They also are called upon to do lectures and demonstrations separately and as a team. Either Dottie or Bunny can be contracted on an individual basis for doll instruction, lectures or demonstrations and trunk shows.
