Edmonton's Handmade Mafia

Hi y'all! I am going to have my art at the Handmade Mafia show on Saturday July 4, 2009. It is from 10 am to 4 pm. It is always held on the first Saturday of every month. Check out the poster above.

It's great to see a high calibre of local Edmonton artists with their own handmade art gathered together. Please come out and see us.

My art is also still for sale at The Wish List on Whyte Avenue (82nd) and 105 street.

My Art is in a 2nd Store!!!!

My art has found it's way into another Edmonton store! I am so excited and grateful to the store owner. The store is called Alter Ego and they sell custom designed t-shirts, Goth ware, jewelry, buttons, belt buckles, and a plethora of other interesting items. I have my Cemetery photography hanging in there, along with some very goth pieces of art.

I will be uploading a couple of my artwork pieces that are in the store in the following days.

Alter Ego is in the Bonnie Doon Mall and the phone number is

Also remember I have art at The Wish List on Whyte Avenue in Edmonton too!

Lovely, Ungoth-like Art Pieces

Pretty, valentine, lovely, ungoth-like art pieces. I do have a soft side and I do like the romance and whimsy art themes. So I created these pieces and now they are hanging for sale in a store in Edmonton called The Wish List. It's on 10464 Whyte Avenue, Edmonton, Alberta, (780) 436-8277.
I have other themed pieces in the shop also. There are some Paris ones, and Victorian children, Moroccan Dancer, Angels, and a Fairy!
Please check them out, and, look at all the other fantastic stuff Gayle has in her store!

Christmas Cheer is Here and Here!

My collection of beautiful antique Christmas ball decorations.

I know it is the day after Christmas, but I have been so busy and not been on the computer for quite awhile. For Christmas I decorated 2 wooden birdhouse to look like frosty Christmas houses. If you look up Cody Foster houses you will see they are very vintage looking and that is what I was going for.

There is a store in Edmonton that is now selling my artwork. Yay!!!! I have some Christmas pieces hanging there and in January/February I will be having hopefully my Paris Series pieces, tambourines, and some other themed works. The store is called The Wish List and is on the trendy Whyte Avenue shopping area.

This isn't a very good photo, but this is a Christmas piece I did 3 years ago and I love it so much I am keeping it. The photo doesn't do it justice. It's in beautiful soft antique colors like pale green, ivory, mauve, and soft pink. The image is from a postcard. I have torn pieces of music from an antique piano play booklet.

This is my Christmas village that I have been purchasing pieces for it over the years. There are a couple of Dept. 56 houses and another incredibly detailed one from Germany. I know these things I have shown you aren't very "Goth" looking, but I do love Christmas and these are the things I like to decorate with.

Have a wonderful rest of 2008 and to hoping that 2009

will be a happy and prosperous year for everyone.

The Toddlers

I created this piece - The Toddlers, a short while ago and it is a small size = 4x6 inch canvas with frame. But I do think it's so damn cute! Especially their little crowns. The boys are from a Children's Victorian Clip Art book. They are hand colored with pencil crayons. I love the background paper. I got it from Treasured Memories in Edmonton. It's hard to see the color of the frame, but it's forest green to match the green on the paper.

I have been doing yard work the last couple of days so the artwork has been in second place of things to do. I did finally finish this one project which I will be posting after this weekend called Portals. I think you will find the piece very interesting.
