Yorkiethon 9 Winner Adds Living Dead Girl Nicole’s Art To ArieScope Display

As artists, we often wonder where our creations end up after we part with them, whether they find the right hands and if they’re truly appreciated by those who receive them.

Recently, Stephen, the winner of my Yorkiethon 9 charity auction donation, sent me photos of the “Daddy” autographed canvas print now on display in his home. Seeing it as part of his Adam Green and Joe Lynch collection and display, I can honestly say it feels like the universe aligned perfectly. This special piece of artwork clearly ended up exactly where it was meant to be and I couldn’t be happier.

Massive thanks to Stephen for being so ghoul, sharing these killer photos of his home display, and supporting both our horror community and The Movie Crypt’s mission to help rescue Arwen’s furry friends. This charity auction raised over $42,000 for Save A Yorkie Rescue, breaking records from previous years, and I’m so honored that my artwork was part of it.

If you’re new here, be sure to check out the slideshow on my Freaky Fanatics page featuring Stephen’s photos and my other happy art collectors. While you are there, be sure to browse over to my Backbones page to discover other fun ways I’ve used my artwork to support amazing causes.

Limited Edition Sid Haig Memorial Necklaces

Posted on by

I am a little late for Giving Tuesday, but I have had something in the works for months now that I can finally announce. My soul sister Suzie is in need of some financial help so I came up with an idea to use my art to help raise some money for her much needed medical/living expenses and the memorial she has been wanting to do for her departed husband and my dear friend Sid Haig.

Suzie & Sid Haig with Living Dead Girl Nicole

After receiving Suzie’s blessing I am now able to offer Sid Haig Memorial Necklaces and I have decided to donate all proceeds from the sale of these necklaces to her.

These necklaces feature my Well Shit The Bed portrait that I drew and gifted to Sid for his birthday in 2017. The title of the art piece was inspired by an inside joke from the first time I met him back in 2004 and the portrait was a tribute to the beautiful friendship I was honored to have with him thereafter. The portrait represents him as himself on one side and as the horror villain icon Captain Spaulding on the other.

I had a limited run of the charms professionally printed and cut out of acrylic. They measure 2″ x 1.5″. I then added metal rings and put them on 20″ waxed faux leather cords (unisex) with lobster clasps and 2″ extender chain (for adjustable length). The backs of the charms are covered in a pure white that allows the portrait to pop through the layer of acrylic on top giving it dimension.

Each one comes in a purple organza bag making them perfect for gifting as well.

These wearable pieces of art are a unique way to support the legendary Sid Haig while also helping the love of his life in her time of need. They are now available with a limited quantity in my Etsy shop (I will continue to renew the listing until they sell out) and a handful will also be available to purchase in person at Closet Collectibles in Crete IL.

Don’t forget to check out my other art inspired fundraising efforts on the Backbones page of my official portfolio website and support some of the great causes and charities that are listed while you are there!

Stay Spooky & Magical,
