DRAGON CON IS ALMOST HERE!!!

Wow! This month went by so fast, I feel like I just started working on my pieces for the Dragon Con Art Show and BAM Dragon Con is this FRIDAY!!!! Super excited to see all my artist friends again and all the fun, wacky, crazy, nerdy people that attend D-Con, present company not excluded :D
I have some pieces that are debuting this year that I am so very excited about, my Framed Sculptures.
White as Snow , Beast's beauty , Lady D'Muertos They will be hanging in my Auction Gallery at the Art show and I can't wait to see what people think of them.
Also I will have my Steampunk Pocket Watch Myxies available at my booth. Carry a Myxie in your pocket and have good luck wherever you go.
As always I will have all my Steampunk Dragons and animals, patiently waiting for someone to take them home :)

I have been frantically working to get enough of these guys done for the show, I don't have as many as last year so make sure to get to my booth early before they are all gone.
I wasn't able to get all the Steampunk animals that I wanted done but I hope to be able to make a few more after the show, before the Holidays.

Looking forward to meeting all you lovely people, so make sure to stop by and say Hello to my Myxies and Pals!
Thanks for reading!

Do You Have the Time?

Last year I did two Steampunk Myxie pocket watches. Trapped Myxie & Beyond the gears 
Having a small Myxie trapped in your pocket watch isn't the best way to keep time but it isn't too bad a way to travel. Keeping a Myxie close by will bring you luck wherever you go, and what a better way to keep them close than safely tucked in your pocket. :)
I really enjoyed making last year's and wanted to do some more.  These little guys will be making their debut at Dragoncon this Labor Day, (any that are left after the show will be available on my Etsy store.)  I hope you like my little time pieces and I really hope to see you at Dragoncon.  :)

This little one seems to have gotten stuck.

I even made a few sassy ones this time. :P

And beware the dreaded Clocktopus, he's escaping!

I found this little locket and decided to do something a little different with it.  

When you open it up, you'll see one of the Sandman's helpers.  If you can't get to sleep, just open the locket, wake up the sleepy Myxie inside and he will bless you with a good night's rest.  

I have a few more pocket watches that will be available at my booth at the Dragon Con Art Show, look forward to seeing you all there! 

As always keep checking my blog and Facebook for all my latest creations.  

Thanks for reading!

Dia de los Muertos Sculpture

So I've finished working on my next Framed Sculpture. Though I super enjoy the fairy tale themed pieces, I got a fun idea for the next one that isn't fairy tale based.
I have become fascinated with the Dia de los Muertos or Day of the Dead face paint. I think it is just beautiful! So this was the bases for my latest framed sculpture.

As with my other framed sculptures. I started by sculpting the accessories and the back drop on the frame. I also painted the frame, I thought an aged white would go nicely with the light purple and pink roses.

After that, I sculpted the main part, the beautiful Lady D'Muertos. Her face paint was incredibly fun to experiment with. I first tried out different designs on paper, then penciled them on her face and painted over it.

Then I was ready to add her hair and attach her to the frame. Now she is ready to give a Mexican Holiday flare to the Dragon Con Art Show, where she will be on Display in the Gallery.

Thanks so much for reading everyone! Keep checking my blog and Facebook page for updates on my latest pieces.
