For 2010, I will not be accepting any special orders so that I can dedicate myself to finally bringing to life the gryphon, bat, kelpie and realistic weasel! 

If you want to be kept up to date on any of these projects, please let me know!

NEWS!!

***********************

For October 2009, I organized an
Online Hallowe'en Artists' Studio Trick-or-Treat!

It was a success and we plan to do it again in 2010!  Already a number of artists have heartily agreed to participate, so look forward to more Trick-or-Treat fun starting on October 1st, 2010!  Again, money will go to Bat Conservation International. 

(Do you create incredible Hallowe'en art?  Contact me if you'd like to take part too!)

Melusine the Serpent Woman is on page 38 of the October 2009 issue of Teddy Bear Review!  The article is entitled "Mythical Menagerie" and she's with a wild bunch of gorgeously different creatures!  Check it out!

Wow!  Check out the June 2009 issue of
Teddy Bear Review to see a *huge* picture of my Souriris (on page 26 with many unusual critters from some super-talented artists in the article entitled "Natural Selection") and then my Kenny and Silver on page 37 in the article "Put the Fun in Functional"!!  

(Kenny and Silver are available for adoption, visit my available page by clicking here.

My critters and I were featured in the April 2007 issue of Teddy Bear Review!  See pages 49-51!  Wow! 
Thanks again to Robin Ruinsky for writing such a fun piece and thanks to the magazine for giving me this opportunity to share my gang of beasties!
