Lisa Fronek's studio houses Santa Claus figures made of polymer clay, wood, wire, and stuffing. The Santas appear as individual pieces as well as in series such as the Seaside Santa Collection, Claws and Paws, and so on. They wear sparkling micro suede, handmade boots, French import fabrics, Angora beards and artist-created hats. Accessories include reproduction tin trains, resin/metal pull toys, and plush/felt animals. Sculpted elements are signed and issued with a Certificate of Authenticity. Lisa has also come up with other creations named Jack the Elf and JoJo the Panda. Her work is unique in that each piece strives to tell a story. Lisa teaches Santa Craft in homes, craft stores and a local Adult Education program. She also works as a designer at the family-owned flower shop and sponsors shows in which bear and doll artists from across the world gather.
