I am happily married to Steve, an Englishman I met on the Internet. We've been married since 1998 and have two beautiful grandchildren.
I started modelling when I was 45, after I'd moved to England from America. You might ask why I would start modelling at such a late age. People have told me my whole life I should be a model, but I always wanted to do my art and just felt happy to be that tall skinny chick. It's amazing what a new start can do! Modelling just dropped in my lap when I moved here, so this time I'm listening. I'm having a BLAST meeting new people and exploring my potential.
I am naturally slim, with no stretch marks, but I'm far from perfect since I'm a grandmother - and face it, I'm no 'Spring Chicken'. I've never had plastic surgery, so you get me 'as is'. Today's woman wants to be represented by women their own age.

'Kitchen Sink to Catwalk' was produced by the same people who produced 'Britain's Next Top Model'. Our mentor was London designer Scott Henshall.
I lived in a house in London with five other women over the age of 40 for 2-1/2 weeks. We lived the life of a model each day, complete with photo shoots and castings. It was an intense adventure and I wouldn't have missed it for the world! They cut my hair even shorter and dyed it nearly black. That was so strange at first. I have since gone back to blonde.

ART
I love to draw and paint. I worked for years as a typesetter and paste-up artist. I graduated into sign work and owned my own neon sign shop until I moved to England.
Micki is an accomplished artist, working mostly in acrylics and pastels. She has been sewing since she was nine years old.

FASHION DOLL CLOTHES
I love to sew and I have recently discovered 16" Fashion Dolls. I've always loved Barbie dolls and have a nice collection of old and new. I am hoping my Granddaughter and/or Goddaughter might want to take up sewing dolly clothes. :) 16" dolls are so much easier to sew for than Barbie who is only 11-1/2".
This is 'Carrie' a doll by Robert Tonner. She is helping me design a patriotic Union Jack frock in anticipation of the Queen's Diamond Jubilee celebration in June. This is one outfit in a series of seven that I am designing so I can get used to sewing at this scale before I plunge into expensive fabrics.
