I have been biting my tongue for weeks, dying to announce my latest “Backbones” charity mission, and if you’re one of my art collectors drawn to the horror side of my work, this is your chance to own something VERY killer, while supporting an amazing cause at the same time. Especially if you’re an animal lover like I am.
So with that all being said, I am beyond thrilled to finally be able to announce that my Victor Crowley/Kane Hodder tribute piece, “Daddy” has been selected by Arwen 🐾 with the help of filmmakers Adam Green and Joe Lynch to be a part of The Movie Crypt‘s silent auction for YORKIETHON 9, a charity event where 100% of the proceeds going to the Save A Yorkie Rescue!
For those not familiar with the annual event, it is a free 3-day LIVE fundraising variety show featuring celebrity guests, comedy, music, and more on the ArieScope Pictures website.
This year the online event will take place Friday July 25th – Sunday July 27th, and during the event you can go to Arwen’s Silent Auction Page and bid on exclusive horror memorabilia, art, collectibles, and more to help raise money for the cause, including the 16″ x 20″ canvas print of “Daddy” that I have donated (pictured with me above).
And it gets even better… Not only will the winning bidder receive my limited size canvas print signed by me as the artist, but it will also be autographed by legendary horror actor Kane Hodder and Hatchet creator Adam Green!* Making it a VERY exclusive art piece to own in your collection!
😉 For those of my art collectors that want to get first dibs before the live variety show starts this weekend, you can do so by starting your BID HERE!
Coming together with fellow horror icons and fans to support a cause like this is a powerful reminder of why the horror genre has always drawn me in. It’s not just about the guts and gore on screen, but about the incredibly passionate and heartfelt community of fans and celebrities I’ve had the privilege of encountering over the years. A community that has welcomed me with open claws and is always inspiring me and helping me push the limits of what I can do as an artist.
If you can’t afford to bid right now, please take a moment to share this post with those who may be interested. It’s not only a personal creation tied to a franchise I adore, but as someone who has always admired the creative minds of Adam and Joe, and whose work has deep roots of inspiration in the horror genre world, having my artwork selected by them to be part of this event is truly an honor. Even more meaningful is the opportunity to use my talents to help save the lives of sweet, deserving dogs like Arwen!

* Kane Hodder and Adam Green will be signing this piece at Flashback Weekend Chicago the weekend AFTER this auction has closed. Therefore the signatures are not visible in the photos provided. The item will be autographed and then shipped to the winner.
As an 80s kid growing up on slasher films like Friday the 13th, I’ve always felt so honored to have had the chance to meet and interact with so many legends, including the one and only Kane Hodder. From rubber band wars with him and Doug Bradley to getting those classic choke hold photos, Kane has never disappointed in our interactions. While others may slip on that iconic hockey mask, he will forever be Jason Voorhees to me (and to so many horror fans who revere his legacy).


With that being said, Kane has always been on my art bucket list. For years, I imagined creating a piece inspired by Jason, the character that made him such a horror icon. But all of that changed when one of my favorite filmmakers, Adam Green, unleashed us into the swamps of Victor Crowley.
When the first Hatchet film came out, it instantly felt like Adam Green’s love letter to slasher fans.. gory, unrelenting, yet full of heart and reverence for the genre. And at the center of it all was Victor Crowley, a character who felt made for Kane Hodder. This wasn’t just a role behind a mask; it was his chance to really shine. You could feel it in every guttural scream, every brutal kill, and every quiet, tragic moment. Adam gave Kane the opportunity to showcase not just his physical intensity, but also raw emotion in portraying both Victor and his “Daddy” Thomas throughout the franchise. It allowed Kane to bring both the monster and the man to life in a way that no one else could, and that inspired me to take my artistic tribute to him in a whole new direction.
It may have taken me many moons to finally cross this vision off my art bucket list, but I’m excited to finally share it with my art collectors. I call the piece “Daddy,” a word that holds so much weight in the Hatchet series and resonates deeply with the Crowley’s tragic backstory.
This split face portrait was created using pencil and chalk pastels, with the background colors inspired by the swamp and flames that engulfed The Crowley’s world.
I’m beyond excited to reunite with Kane in a few months during my next “artventure” to Flashback Weekend, where I plan to gift him the original portrait. It will also be my first time meeting Adam Green, the creative force behind so many of my favorite horror films, YouTube shorts, and the brilliant Holliston TV show, an absolute rare gem for horror fans that has my husband and I saying “basKET” and “piggly no wiggly” as part of our everyday vocabulary.
For my art collectors who are also fans of Kane and Adam Green’s Hatchet & Victor Crowley franchise, I have made-to-order* prints and wearable art t-shirts listed in my Etsy shop. Apply coupon code CROWLEY to your order at check out and get 10% slashed off your order!
