Mary Dixon, oldest of 6 kids in a wacko family that hated animals. Go figure!
'Mom' of (currently) 6 dogs, 4 cats and a friendly coop of free range chickens. Steve Stanchfield is my other half, been together for 20 years. He is an animator and professor of it at www.ccscad.edu.
I have taught ceramics for kids in continuing ed at CSS, also.
These days I run his Thunderbeananimation.com cartoons on DVD business and my own porcelain jewelry and stoneware tile business MD Dogart, www.mddogart.com
and my main focus these days is my etsy shop (all things handmade):

I also do some part time critter training (I have rehabbed, retrained and rehomed about 300 rejected, behavior project, animal shelter-obtained Australian Cattle Dogs) and have a new little side venture, Mup Mup Animal Actors of Ann Arbor:

I enjoy cooking, writing, singing, most music, animal behavior, natural health, fashion, mid-century-modern design, photo, drawing and claywork.
I am a BFA Drawing/Graphic Design Eastern MI University (1989) and have done free lance graphics and illustration for 18 years.
I love to go to foreign countries and smuggle back yummy stinky cheeses, chocolate and wine. |
