Marilyn Radzat Bio
The Fantasy Art of Marilyn Radzat
Marilyn Radzat has been creating art in the figure form for over 35 years. Using the body as the canvas, she transforms her handworked sculpted pieces with layers of fabric, nature's elements, mosaics and found objects. Marilyn's masterful skills in the art of assemblage adds her characteristic emphasis to the dimensional collage.
Featured in many fine galleries throughout the United States, and in the private collections of such well-known personalities as President and Mrs. Clinton, actress Demi Moore, author Anne Rice, entertainer Richard Simmons, director Ron Howard, to name but a few, Marilyn's pieces have been voted into the exclusive organization of doll artists, Niada: the National Insitute of American Doll Artists, a worldwide organization. Her works have been featured in many books and magazines.
Each piece stands as a one-of-a-kind collectable, unique and enchanting. The clays used range from low-fired, oil base clays to high fire porcelain. The fabrics used to create the costumes are vintage and antique pieces of silk velvets, rich brocades and other rare textiles.
"I am often called a Curator of Enchantment.
I feel that Enchantment offers, in her very essence, inspiration. It is that serendipitous coming together of the unexpected . . . a tiny orange mushroom on the forest floor, a circle of young redwood trees forming a cathedral space, a flash of silk caught by a branch . . . I believe in Enchantment in her highest form. Not as an escape from reality, but as a window into what is possible in that fertile and complex world of imagination."

"Creating a Hardscape Costume with Niada artist, Marilyn Radzat"
For the first time, renown artist, Marilyn Radzat is offering a class in the creating of one of her amazing costumes using mosaic glass and other embellishments. Marilyn has worked on this particular style over the past 15 years, after a move to Hawaii forced her to abandon the use of fine fabrics and velvets on her costumes. What developed was a completely unique and fascinating style of costuming which she calls a "Hardscape".
Now you will have a chance to see exactly how she creates these costumes with the help of detailed written instructions and over 200 color photos.
Following her direction, you will be able to create a masterpiece of your own. Along with 6 full and detailed lessons, you will have access to a forum where you can ask Marilyn any question, and offer photos of your pieces for review and suggestions. This is an
opportunity that you don't want to miss!
