It's Show Time: It's time to support the arts, and the art of the doll. Almost 200 one of a kind works of art were created by the Hollywood Doll Artists, and they are all ready for your vote. That's right, you are cordially invited to the Hollywood Doll Oscars, and you get to pick your favorite stars.

The first Hollywood Doll, and the one that sets the bar for the quality of one of a kind celebrity portrait dolls is "Debora Kerr: A Life Tribute" by Noel Cruz.

The winner of the first Hollywood Dolls Best In Show was Laurie Everton's "Cher: The 80s." Repaints by IsaBelle's "Brandon Lee: The Crow" tied with Leslie Wagner (Sands Of Fire) "Sandra Bullock." Last year, Eneida Rosa's "Betty Page: Angel Of Sin" was Best In Show, with Laurie Everton's "Cher: Half Breed" as runner up. These are magnificent works of art, and all are one of a kind tributes in honor of Hollywood and the artists' favorite celebrities.

One of a kind Hollywood Dolls dolls range from 1:12 miniature sculpts, to Barbie, Gene, and Tonner - sized repaints with or without additional sculpting, to full life size mannequins, such as created by the talented David of Dash N Dazzle.

This is the 3rd Year Anniversary of Hollywood Dolls Best In Show, and appreciation for their existance is growing. Below is a YouTube preview of the best Hollywood Dolls of 2010.

Since the site was opened, my interenet learning curve has included my composing more than one hundred web pages with more than one third devoted to dolls, doll artists, and the arts. Currently there are several more in the works with two close to completion. If you have a suggestion, or would like to submit a story, review, or editorial you would like to share, you are welcome to submit your copy or link, and it will be included. Everything about the Doll Street Journal is devoted to the arts, and the art of the doll.

Doll Street Market Beat: For the past few weeks I've been reading a book titled, "Linchpin." The book was written by well known author, Seth Godin. "Linchpin" was written by an artist for artists. I highly recommend this book for anyone who seeks information from one who has a profound perspective of the market today. Here is the link to "Linchpin."

Until the next update -- Thank you for taking the time to stop by.

The above doll pages are updated so often that they are considered my 'squidoo blogs.' All top ten list doll pages are updated very regularly.

My next blog will include information about The Fashion Plate, The Rock Star Doll Of Fame, TV Dolls, Political Dolls, Altered Barbie, and The Doll Mall.
