These dolls are one-of-a-kind sculptures who's influences range from modern fairy tales to classic works of art. All of these elements - from the haggardly Dickensian facial expressions to the elaborately detailed costumes and poses - come across in each of Ropars' works. And even though the nymphs, witches and other creatures she creates are pure fantasy, Ropars has a special talent for making them look eerily real.
She started as a 2-D texture artist in video games, and slowly became a 3-D modeler. In her spare time she made a lot of clothes, jewelry, drawings, leather accessories and embroideries. Doll making became the perfect medium that would bring all these things together with never-ending possibilities.
