Meredith Dittmar was born outside of Boston Mass. A self taught artist - she first started sculpting at UMass while trying to avoid getting her computer science degree. After graduating and several years pursuing the back-country on her snowboard, she worked as an interactive designer/programmer - her digital works having been shown in international film festivals, exhibits and magazines.

She has since put the digital realm on the back-burner to pursue 3-Dimensional passions. Over ten thousand completely unique "guys" have been created and successfully adopted in the last 10 years. Along with her 3-D "doodles" she creates larger, hung environments inspired by nature, consciousness, and the various diverse music scenes she has participated in over the years.

The first "guys" were made in 1994 when she discovered polymer clay. Ever since that day, a steady flow has continued to come. Thousands were created and no two alike until recently in the incarnation of "clones". "Guys" are made out of premo polymer clay and flexible sculpey and are signed and dated on the bottom.
