My blood is pumping with excitement because I can finally share that I was asked to do another exclusive artist spotlight interview. This time it was with SGNL Magazine and it is now officially published in the latest issue of their zine!

This isn’t just an online feature either, this spotlight is like a horror movie death scene splattered over 5 pages of print and focuses a lot on my horror con “artventures”. Which means you not only get insights from this weird creative ghoul, but you can actually own a copy of it as well.

Here is the promo video for Issue 3 that they shared on social today!

So if you are a horror geek like me, please go support this killer magazine. They not only support us macabre artists but they are also bringing the horror community together in their own creative way.

Orders are now open for both digital and print copies in their online store. So be sure to get your claws on Issue 3 while you can!

Also, if you are new here and don’t want to miss the fun ways my artwork is being featured visit and bookmark the Creature Features page of my portfolio website.

And… if you are interested in showcasing my work in your next publication, exhibition, or creative venture let’s connect and make some magic together!

Evolved Art Gallery Pee Wee Herman Tribute Exhibition will Feature Signed Prints by Artist Living Dead Girl Nicole

🤖 The word of the day is “EVOLVED” because I am totally geeking out 🤓 while signing and packaging up these giclee prints of my “Its Gonna Be That Kind Of Morning” pencil and colored pencil art piece.

They are headed to California and will be available for purchase at the Evolved Art Gallery during their “I Know You Are But What Am I?” art exhibition in tribute to the legendary world of Pee Wee Herman.

As you all know I have been a huge fan of Pee Wee Herman/Paul Reubens since I was a little girl. I am literally surrounded by his movie posters and 80s playhouse toys in my living room as I type this out. My art piece as well as my tattoo of him are even featured on his website. What you may not know is after drawing this art piece my husband and I traveled to a convention in Indy to meet and gift it to him. Unfortunately he had to cancel his appearance. The following year I purchased tickets for us to meet him during his big Pee Wee’s Big Adventure Anniversary Tour but due to COVID lock downs he was forced to cancel his last two shows, and Chicago happened to be one of them.

Then the worst news possible shook the playhouse with his passing and now the art piece sits framed in red still in the gift bag I was going to give to him along with a card expressing the ways he positively impacted my childhood and the wacky loner rebel that I am today. So in other words this piece is as sentimental to me as Pee Wee’s bike 🚲 was to him and I did not want to risk it getting lost in the mail. The gallery owner Christina was impressed by my work and felt it really aligned and reflected the love and passion she is looking for in this special tribute exhibition so she suggested another way for my work to be a part of the show and I immediately said “AHHHHH!” (in my best Pee Wee voice) and got a hold of my printer.

So if you will be in California from July 11th – August 30th, 2026 be sure to bring your inner child to the Evolved Art Gallery in Ventura and check out the free and open to the public “I Know You Are But What Am I?” art exhibition in tribute to the wonderfully weird world of a true legend. There you will find my signed prints available to purchase at the gallery.

And if you are new here, be sure to check out the Creature Features page of my portfolio website. There you can find this exhibition listed amongst some of the other unique places my art has been featured over the years.

And if you are interested in showcasing my work, let’s connect, chat and make some magic together!

Frank Schieber contacted me to let me know that everyone now has FREE access to my exclusive artist interview on the Cool Hand Frank platform! So if you were not able to sign up to access it when it went live last May or if you didn’t get a chance to read it when it was temporarily free during spooky season, then nows your chance to give it a gander on the official Artist Interviews section of their website.

From my original May 27, 2025 post: “Not only was it an insightful and energizing conversation, but I’m also thrilled to be the very first artist spotlighted in their brand new interview series. We had a blast diving into the inspiration behind my branding and artistic pseudonym, how Midwest horror, pop culture, and the local rock scene have shaped my work, my evolution through different artistic mediums, and which iconic figures living and dead I dream of gifting my art to. I also share some fun facts that might surprise my collectors, how the Soska Sisters pulled me out of an artistic funk, and even reveal my go-to beverage for keeping the creative blood flowing.” Read it here now!
