Camille Allen lives in Powell River, British Columbia, Canada. She is 25,

married with no children yet. She sculpts her miniature and lifesize babies

in a large studio in a bright and cheerful heritage building built in 1916.

She first learned the art of doll making from her husband's grandmother

Clara Allen 5 years ago. Since then she has ventured into miniature

sculpting, creating tiny yet amazingly realistic babies in many poses.

Her miniature babies have become known all over the world by means of an

email forward depicting them as "marzipan babies". However, contrary to

popular opinion, they are not made of marzipan.

 

Camille's dolls and sculptures have been exhibited at the Magnum Opus show

in New York, as well as featured on the Montel Williams television talk

show. Her dolls have sold for over $3000.00 US dollars, and reside in

collections all over the world.
