Theater of Spooks for STJ update!

It is a BIG month for the Spookytime Jingles crew....we are turning TWO! I have been a member of this wonderful group for a little over a year, and it has been such a great experience. I am so honored to be surrounded by such talent and inspiration!
Please make sure to head over to the STJ site at midnight tonight for our spooky and sweet anniversary celebration!

My Theater of Spooks will be up for grabs. I had hoped to finish two other pieces, but this project took a bit longer than I had anticipated. I am so glad I finished it just in time! It is full of sculpted details...the weathered tree, spiffy owl, hanging bat, costumed raccoons, kitty ghost and jack o' lanterns were all sculpted with paperclay and painted with many layers of acrylic washes and pastels.

First, a BIG huge THANK YOU to all of the wonderful customers who made October the best month for The SnipPets yet!!!!!! I am incredibly grateful for your support!!! You allow me to keep on creating and live an artists' dream :)...oh yeah, and help a whole lot of kitties in need (that's the best part!).

It's time to make room for whimsical new creations. I am headed to the John Campbell Folk School next week and will be learning some new dollmaking skills from one of the best dollmakers around, Kathryn Walmsley. I am SOOOO excited to have a week of uninterrupted creative time with no distractions!! Yahoo! It's going to be F-U-N!

It's a Spooktacular Day!

How ridiculously cute is my Rooney???!! He was helping me navigate through the blog world the other night. I just had to start off this blog entry with his sweet face. This cat came out of one of the worst situations i have ever been involved in...our most heartbreaking and dramatic rescue ever. But that is a story for another day.

On to happy news! I am soooooo proud and thrilled to announce that i am now a member of SpookyTime Jingles!!!! WOOHOO! I am very excited to be joining such an amazing group of talented, clever and inspiring artists. It is sure to be a fun new adventure for me! I want to thank Dani Nelson, the owner and founder of STJ, for her wonderful support and encouragement. She is a true gem! Check out her blog and her own fabulous designs on etsy. Dani is taking SpookyTime Jingles to the National Halloween Convention in a few weeks. Check out their website for more info and details.



I am sending the SnipPet Spooks that you saw on my last post to the Halloween Convention along with these four new little cute and creepy critters. I will be creating more of these soon so that i can have them available on the STJ website next month.
