Little brag session

Yesterday, Brenda surprised me by including my wire basket in her ArtFire Collections list that she calls A Basket Case (hey! I'm one of those!) Be sure to stop by her shop, TheTwelfthDimension.She has the cutest miniatures for dollhouses.

Then, this morning, Paula told me that she had included my captured witch in HER Artfire Collections list. Hers is chock full of witches. She calls it There be Witches. Paula's shop is PicardCreative and she is on ArtFire, too. Head over to her shop for a good chuckle. You will see what I mean when you get there. :D.

Let's Face It

Patty Ann of TheSunnySideBiz put this ArtFire collection together entitled, Lets Face It. She featured my face pendant in her list of the "faces of ArtFire". Be sure to stop by her shop. She is a seamstress and sews beautiful items. She has been sewing most, if not all, of her adult life and her fine craftsmanship is evident. :D

The first one is my Nevermore framed portrait of EAP. Thank you, Poison Garden for selecting it to go in your treasury list entitled The Raven. It's one of those items that you place with all of your family portraits around Halloween just to get people talking.

The second EAP item was in a Etsy treasury curated by CslayerD that she entitled Inspired by Poe. It is my art bottle that I fondly call "Poe dirt". It is an antique bottle filled with dirt. (ant dirt from my backyard to be specific) The label says Edgar Allan Poe cemetery dirt Old Westminster Burying Ground Baltimore, Maryland. 


Of course, no cemetery was actually visited in making this art bottle. Last year, I was contacted by the director of the Old Westminster Burying Ground because they wanted to be sure that no one was stealing their dirt. I promise; I am no grave robber! LOL

Nest

I made this assemblage with the embodiment of a nest in mind and today (to my delight), I learned that it was selected to be part of an ArtFire Member Curated Collection.
