My All Hallow’s Potster Collection is now officially available to see and buy in person in my Cabinets of Curiosities at Closet Collectibles! So don’t delay making a visit to the shop and getting your claws on one at the in-store discounted price* for yourself or your favorite ghoul!
When I was at the shop this weekend I also did a little rearranging of my display. So when you are there you will also notice that my canvas print inventory is unusually low and there is a sign explaining why that is. For those that don’t make it into the shop this week will hear the exciting news when it is announced here in the upcoming days, so stay tuned to your inboxes!
Since my Evil Eye of Protection Charmster necklaces are pieces of wearable handmade art, my art collector Heather has decided to put them in mini frames to display them whenever she isn’t wearing them!
I would be lying if I said I didn’t get super giddy seeing these photos she sent me. I just love seeing my Monstrosities being loved by their mortals and getting special treatment from the wickedly cool and creative people who are drawn to adopting them.
“I was so excited they didn’t sell (at the Unruly Art Market) so I could scoop them up. They’re necklaces, and when they’re not being worn- I added these thrifted frames to them-to display & enjoy them. They’re so silly, and they make me smile.” – Heather on Instagram
If you’re new here, be sure to check out Heather’s photos alongside other happy art collector photos and video submissions that are featured on the Freaky Fanatics page of my portfolio website.
For those who are discovering these Charmsters for the very first time, I have only have 2 left! You can adopt them online in my Etsy shop or in person from my Cabinets of Curiosities at Closet Collectibles in Crete, IL!
And if you are looking to add some unique & “magical” flare to your world, skip the big box stores and shop my creations! Already have? Then be sure to take photos or videos of yourself rocking, displaying, or even gifting my art and contact me to be featured!
What started off as me creating Solaris for the Nevada Fine Arts 4×4″ gallery show, inspired me to then unearth Gaia. Mixing my love for both monsters and cosmic mythological vibes I felt the universe was telling me “why stop there?” So I decided to dive deep into the depths to conjure up another one of my Monstrosities for the Unruly Art Market.
No pun intended, but the entire vision for this 4×4″ Mini Monsterpiece started with a single physical element.. the eye. I was drawn into the slightly tealish aqua blues mixed with intense red and bloodshot accents and knew right away that Orion was my inspiration. Born from the teal waters of his father Poseidon with the ability to walk across the ocean, and pulled from the shadows of legendary blindness by the fiery light of the sun, the aquatic demigod naturally began taking monster form amidst the fleshy waves of my canvas.
For those not familiar with my Monsterpieces, this particular piece was created on a 4×4″ pre-wrapped (on wood) canvas. I transformed it, by hand sculpting it into a cycloptic creature with wild faux hair, glittery horns, drool covered shell fangs, and rubbery flesh. They are my way of giving unique three dimensional flare to a traditional flat canvas. Since they are hand made and not mass produced* no two will ever be recreated exactly the same, allowing my art collectors something one-of-a-kind and out of the ordinary for their collections.
Anyone attending the Unruly Art Market on Sunday, May 31st will get first dibs on adopting Orion. If he is still hunting for his chosen mortal after the event, he will be added to my Etsy shop for online shoppers and placed inside my Cabinets of Curiosities at Closet Collectibles for those who wish to see and adopt him in person.*
Don’t miss your chance to own this unique piece of beastly art that stretches from the depths of the sea, all the way to the stars in the cosmos. 🌊💫
Once the layout is complete the artists who contributed their work will receive notification of when and where the mural will be installed in the spring! So stay tuned!

And for my fellow lovers and dreamers who feel a rainbow connection to this piece, there are made-to-order* 8″ x 8″ canvas prints and t-shirts available in my Etsy shop! I also have one 8″x 8″ canvas print currently available to see and purchase in-person at a discounted price* in my Cabinets of Curiosities at Closet Collectibles (in Crete, IL.). This allows my art collectors to not only own a piece of artistic history but to also give them a unique way to join forces with me in honoring Jim Henson’s legacy. 👩🏻🎨💚🌍✨
