My Bio
I work primarily in traditional mediums using Celtic and Medieval themes. My recent work is inspired by Medieval illuminated manuscripts, Japanese woodblock prints, Art Nouveau, and Native American art.

I recently stumbled upon pyrography and realized that it was a perfect match to my designs. I love the character and earthy feel that the wood adds to my work. The fact that my finished pieces can be used either as decorative art or as functional items also appeals to me.

Favourite Visual Artist
Oh so many, how to choose?
Favourite Writers
favorite poet: Yeats, favorite novelists: Robin Hobb, Marion Zimmer Bradley, Octavia Butler
Tools of the Trade
acrylic, watercolor, oil, pencil... anything I can get my hands on
Other Interests
Art, Hiking, Celtic Studies, The Past, Reading

You may have noticed that I have been less than active lately. I have had some changes in my personal life recently. The biggest one is the birth of my second child. It is going to take some time adjusting to our wonderful new family addition, so things will continue to be slow for a while. I still have mt Art Fire store open and I am working on a collaboration with a local wood turner. Thank you for the favorites and watches while I have been inactive.

Still Here

This is a slow and quiet year for me. I'm scaling back on shows and taking some time to evaluate where I am with my work. I am not going away, but posts will continue to be sporadic for a while longer, my apologies. I am still open for commissions. Please feel free to message me if there is something you are interested in

Hi all! Thank you so much for all of the new favorites, watches, and comments. I am very pleased that you all like my new Celtic tree bowl in particular. It was a labor of love. With the coming holidays, I am keeping very busy. I do not have any more craft shows this season, but I have several commissions to keep me busy. I will also be continuing my alphabet this winter. Be sure to check back for pictures of more letters. And for now... features! **************************************************************** :thumb325320496: by ~Velvet-Dragon (https://www.deviantart.com/velvet-dragon) :thumb332365312: by :iconJesmondCat: :thumb333255745: by :iconbcduncan: :thumb13898991
