Reflections In Green – Living Dead Girl Nicole’s Mural Mosaic Global Roots Submission

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. 👩🏻‍🎨💚🌍✨

Stay Strange & Magical,

Turning My Art Upside Down With a Hand Sculpted Stranger Things Upgrade

Posted on by

With all of us highly anticipating the next chapter of Stranger Things hitting our screens this week, I have been deep in inspiration mode, anxious in all the good ways to create something special for my art collectors as we wait to see what happens next to what remains of our beloved Hellfire Club.

So I started off with a freshly printed 8×10″ giclee print of my “Pretty Bitchin'” split face portrait of Millie Bobby Brown as Eleven (in Seasons 1 and 2) and got a nice new frame for it. But let’s be real, my plan was never to just put it in a nice frame. Like so many characters in the show, I had a vision. And that vision was to turn this frame Upside Down, literally. What followed was a full Vecna-infested transformation. 🙃

I hand sculpted, painted, and lacquered the frame to bring my idea to life, and I could not be happier with how it turned out. Much like the visual effects and branding of the show, color played a huge role in the process. Blue representing the everyday human world, with red symbolizing the dark reflection of the Upside Down realm. I wanted both energies present, with the Upside Down slowly taking over and warping everything into one twisted reality surrounding Eleven.

And since I know we are all counting down the minutes until the next chapter airs, I made a special art drop visit to Closet Collectibles yesterday to add this special piece to my Cabinets of Curiosities. It is also now available to purchase online in my Etsy shop for those who are not local and need to shop from their own dimension.

As always, my art collectors who choose to shop my work in-person at Closet Collectibles vs online in my Etsy shop do benefit from discounted in-store pricing** so if you are local or in the area be sure to stop by, check out my work, and get your hands on this one-of-a-kind piece of art framed in art before a Demogorgon decides to snatch it up and drag it off to his dark corner in the Vale of Shadows.
