The Dutch Touch

Dutch collegue Marlaine Verhelst and Ankie are famous in the USA and beyond for their five day Masterclasses ‘The Dutch Touch’, which they teach together twice a year.

Meet the Dutch Touch, and experience how exciting it is to sculpt your own fantasy doll, what fun it is to create with colourfull and dramatic fabrics their costumes, and to learn all the tips and trics Marlaine and Ankie teach you.

A reaction of one the students: "These girls make us do things we had no idea we could do". Ankie and Marlaine inspire the students and stimulate them "think outside the box". They like to share their art and experenience and for students is it an unique opportunity to learn new techniques and to go home with a very personal and always finished doll.
