MEDIA ENQUIRIES
Hi, and thank you for your interest! I welcome any legitimate media enquiries about my work and aspects of my personal life. I am very friendly and willing to share about my background, my process and my inspirations, but please note --
​
DO NOT contact me if you have not taken the time to find out what doll artistry is about and entails. It is an art form no different from painting, carving, sculpting or drawing, and in fact combines all of these and more; just as you should not be focusing on the money-making aspect of those media, neither should you be doing that here -- this is a labour of love and pure hard work -- please do not insult artists or collectors, and reveal how soulless you are.
​
DO NOT contact me if you do not intend to be courteous and well-mannered. I really do NOT appreciate taking the time to thoughtfully and politely answer your questions only to be left hanging. That is neither professional nor considerate -- it is simply RUDE.
Just because we are communicating virtually does not give one the freedom to be discourteous or disrespectful. If you do not know how to be gracious and simply say something along the lines of, "Thank you, I'll let you know when we decide to do this" or "Thanks for your time -- I'll get back to you if we can work something out", after you have gotten whatever information it is that you need, then please DO NOT contact me at all. The golden rule of doing unto others as you would have them do unto you applies to all areas of life, including this.
​
If, however, you are professional, thoughtful and well brought up, then by all means, please do feel free to write me at little.umiumi@gmail.com or simply use the contact form below. Please note that I would require to read or view any publication or recording before it goes to print or air, and reserve the right to refuse permission to publicise. Thank you and have a great day!
