The Golden Moth Illumination DeckMarch 10th, 2012The Golden Moth Illumination Deck has been successfully funded through my
Kickstarter campaign! Thank you to all my backers for your support :) If you haven't heard about the project, click on the link above to learn more.
Now I have to finish the artwork and send it off to the printers. Then I have to pack and ship 127 packages! I will also list the card deck, postcards, notecards, poster, and bookplates in my online shop,
Sprout Head, in late April/early May. If you'd like to receive announcements related to the cards, my shop, and other art news, please subscribe to my
E-mailing list. You can manage your subscription to receive updates once a month or less frequently.
Once again,
THANKS
&
YAY!!!

About MeI am an artist, writer, and printmaker who is fascinated by the intersection of visual art and language. I like to write and illustrate poems, and make prints, drawings, and crafts. I dont practice a distinction between fine art and craft. For me, art should be an everyday thing from illustrations in books, to the painting hanging in your kitchen, to the exhibit at the museum, and wherever you can find it in-between. I received my BFA from Pratt Institute in Brooklyn, NY, majoring in Fine Arts/Printmaking. As a printmaker, I am drawn to the challenges and surprises inherent in the form: planning each layer of the image; carving, scratching, and building up the printmaking plate; and finally inking and pulling the print. My inspirations include nature, my garden, paper crafts, toys, comics, and children's books. Some of my favorite artists and illustrators are Gustav Baumann, Edward Gorey, Peter Sis, Tove Jansson, Arnold Lobel, and Beni Montresor. I currently live in Richmond, Virginia.
