Welcome to International Reborn Doll Artists (IRDA)
Founded 2005
We're a group of reborn artists (and doll dealers,
reborn suppliers, collectors and sculptors too!) who believe that
continuing education is one of the keys to improvement in
this field. Many professionals continue developing and
upgrading their skills throughout their careers. Because
reborning is such a quickly changing and evolving art form, we
believe it's important to provide a venue for those who wish to stay
on top of the newest techniques, and share their love and knowledge
of reborn artistry.
IRDA was
the pioneer organization for the Reborn
Convention with Classes. We have continued to work closely
with the staff of IDEX (Madavor Media aka DollReader
Magazine) and Tiny Treasures to ensure the success of future
reborn conventions.
We
developed professional working relationships with doll companies
such as Secrist Doll Co., Dolls by Berenguer, and Ashton Drake
Galleries which have benefited the ENTIRE reborning
community.
We
also realized that it would be a lot of fun to actually get
together in person, sharing ideas and talents. Although we now
offer online classes, our emphasis will always be on attending an
actual Conference, because it's just more fun to hang out
together! |
