In Production! and Other Things....

As the titles implies I am currently building up some stock of unique pieces. There will be no reveal today, however I figured I'd share one of the latest commissions I did.

I have to say that I always love the challenge of commissions especially when I am given an idea to build on. I feel my bird skulls are quite well suited for a Gothic theme and working the cross in was a nice touch. I'm glad to say that my client was very happy with the end result. Which brings me to something I've noticed. 

 



















Finding things in Toronto and then never finding them again. Now I am fully aware this is a common thing with fabrics, given unique prints and a strong connection to the fashion industry.  However I did not realize this would extend to lace and ribbons....well it does. So I'll be on the hunt again soon , which in some ways is a pain especially when you love what you had found. On the up side though it keeps you current and constantly evolving and changing an idea. This is a good thing.  

No ruts for me! >;3

Commissions, Me, & The Best Season Ever!

As of late I've been filling my time plotting and planning out a Halloween costume. Halloween is by far superior  to all special occasions!  Personal opinion of course, but I mean how can you not love all that awesomeness and of course the crazy artistic lengths some people go to! This year I'm hoping to put all of my creative juices to work! I have a few plots a plotting in the old brain box, one such idea is a tribute to a couple of animators whose work I love.  We will see however if my schedule permits...more on that later!

In other news, I just completed and sent off a commission for a good friend of mine who is in theater. It was actually a super fun build and brandished one of my bird skulls as the center piece.  The choker was steam punk inspired and was meant to warn by a head mistress.  I couldn't have been happier with the end result.  As a result of the result I now have more commissions and that's exciting! :D
