As one of my art collectors and artventure followers, you already know that my work is on display and available to purchase from my Cabinets of Curiosities at Closet Collectibles in Crete, IL. Well in March, they hosted a very large toy and collectibles show. It was such a success that they are hosting their second one today!

To support them I have donated a prize that will be raffled off with lots of other cool items at the event. The bag I put together includes an 8×10″ canvas print of my ‘Y? Because I Gotta!’ split face art piece as well as some other fun surprise goodies!

So if you are a pop culture geek like me, be sure to visit the Crete Township Community Center today from 9am – 4pm, take in all the nostalgia and drop a raffle ticket in to win my artwork! While you are there be sure to stop by the Closet Collectibles table and tell them Living Dead Girl Nicole sent ya!

And… the Closet Collectibles store will be open during normal business hours, so after you go to the show be sure to visit the store and see all my other artwork I have on display there and their massive selection of toys and collectibles. If you have never been to the store before, you will either be mad at me because you spent all your money or super stoked you discovered such a magical fun place for treasure hunting. Most likely both, but either way you will be thanking me later! 🏴‍☠️

Lydia Unboxes 80s Pop Culture Art by Living Dead Girl Nicole

Posted on by

My newest art collector, Lydia, discovered my artwork after we connected over our artistic outlets of expression (give this girl a harp or piano and you won’t be disappointed) as well as our mutual pop-culture obsessions on LinkedIn. When I learned she also has a soft spot for Jeff Goldblum, it felt perfectly fitting to see an Etsy order come through from her for a canvas print of my “Insect Politics” split-face portrait of Brundlefly. And because we both share a deep love of 80s kids’ nostalgia, it made total sense that she would take the opportunity to snatch up one of my Limited Edition Totally 80’s sticker packs while I still had some in stock.

True to her generous spirit, Lydia didn’t just enjoy her new art privately, she shared the excitement by posting an unboxing video across her social media, snapping a great photo of her purchase, and even left a heartfelt 5-star Etsy review that absolutely made my day.

“I am a HUGE Jeff Goldblum fan and was thrilled with this beautiful art of Jeff and the Fly! The hand drawn stickers of Pee Wee, Labyrinth, Little Monsters are amazing with detail! Beautiful pieces of art and excited to add these to my 80s collection. 💕🙂” – Lydia B. on Etsy

It’s collectors like Lydia that remind me that those who really get my art will one day discover and love it as much as I did creating it. I am so honored to have my work on display in the happy space of her home filled with so much rad 80’s nostalgia!

If you’re new here, be sure to check out Lydia’s photo and video submissions featured alongside some of my other happy art collectors on the Freaky Fanatics page of my portfolio website.

And if you are looking for an extremely talented harpist and pianist, or an enthusiastic travel agent, be sure to connect with Lydia on Linkedin! She also has a travel vlog diary on Youtube, a Spotify channel for those looking to zen out to her music, and a totally tubular 80s themed TikTok for those who are feeling nostalgic! Find and support them all here!

Looking for some new art for your collection or to add some unique spark to a special space in your home? Shop my creations! And if you already have, be sure to take photos or a video of yourself rocking or displaying my artwork and contact me to be featured!

Just a friendly reminder that National Handmade Day is April 5th! While it’s always encouraged to support handmade small businesses all year long, this Saturday is a great time to celebrate and show local artisans that you believe in them! ✍️🔫👩🏻‍🎨✨️

Ways you can support me as a handmade artist…

Stay Strange & Magical ✨

*Price is discounted from online store prices. Etsy listings reflect the unfortunate amount of shop and transaction fees they charge us artists to sell online. If you are local or traveling to Illinois, I encourage my clients to save money and see my work on full display by shopping my artwork in person with my consignment partner, Closet Collectibles where they truly support my creative endeavors to the fullest as their resident local artist.
