Chainmail Faeries
my faeries (or fairies if you prefer; I'm an archaic anglophile type of girl) were all drawn and inked by hand, photographed, coloured in photoshop, printed out on high-quality photo paper, cut out, the edges blackened to match the outlines, then mounted onto glass textured with acrylic varnish and clear plastic film to get that antiqued glass look. most are in distressed black frames to suit any décor style, tho some frames retain whatever their original colour was; for instance a hint of red or gold. they come in three poses and about as many colour combinations as you can imagine, some innocent, some downright deadly. this is the chainmail faerie pose, and i have about a million of them in various hues and sizes. they are all $30. please contact for dimension or other options in colours. they range from about 8x10" to 14x16." i'm not making any more of these, so when they're gone, they're gone.

I graduated from Columbus College of Art and Design with a Fine Arts major, emphasis on painting. I've shown and sold work in galleries, shops and festivals in the area, as well as in Chicago and Cleveland. I founded and run Cross-Media Collective, a 501(c)3 non-profit to help artists and art groups get the assistance they need, be it grants, sponsorship, or just general aid with permitting for events. We are currently fundraising for a permanent location for our events, and a gallery/workshop space, as well as a museum of miniatures, my pet project. You can read more about that at cross-mediacollective.org and columbusminiatures.org (currently under construction).
My work is very varied, running the gamut from painting to sculpture, realistic to abstract, massive to tiny. I get bored easily, and inspired easily, and no one would guess that everything I make comes from one person. Most of my work tends towards the figurative, or the anticipation of figures; I make miniature food, furniture and rooms…okay, and figures. My paintings are generally acrylic and almost always figurative. My sculptures are clay, and, again, figurative. I'm a people person, aesthetically, anyway.
I've spent the past three years renovating and decorating a very large, very old, very neglected house. My work with minis was beneficial in planning and executing the look of the house, and though I have no training in interior design, I love decor and architecture, as is evident in my miniatures, and would like to find decorators to work with, perhaps to commission a certain piece for a certain room, or work with individuals who just want an artistic eye or someone to shop with when redoing a room. Sometimes a fresh view or a second opinion is crucial.
