An award-winning professional doll artist for about a decade, Marguerite Noschese had been looking forward to a varied roster of shows at the beginning of the year. “Unfortunately, many shows have been cancelled this year,” she said. “I did, however, partake in the Quinlan Virtual Show and Sale that was arranged for the participating artists.
“This year I have also been invited to attend the ODACA Conference in Dallas in July as a ‘considered’ artist inductee. And I was so looking forward to the Bewitching Peddlers of Halloween show — as an artist who works often in the Halloween spirit, it is the most fascinating show. Unfortunately that’s also been canceled due to the health crisis, though there will be a virtual show. Meanwhile, I will continue to offer works of art on my FaceBook page throughout the year.”
