Your Heart, A Fur Lined Cocoon To Keep Me Warm...

Hello dearest kittens,

I am over the moon to announce that my second book, "And Then We Are The Darkness" is finally avialable!

And Then We Are The Darkness

At 62 pages, it is a hardbound book, with dust jacket, and includes a forward written by the magical JL Schnabel of Bloodmilk and Hi-Fructose. All copies are signed and dated, and come with a print of the cover image, "Shadow Sisters" and a handscreened print of "Abracadabra". And remember you can receive 15% off your purchase with coupon code: SEANCE.

The next items (and last new items of the year) to hit the shop will be my two new tote bag designs, so look out for that! I will then begin working on a piece for an upcoming show at Observatory in Brooklyn. This follows pieces in the fantastic group shows by Domy in Austin and Articulated Gallery in San Francisco. Here's a video from Articulated Gallery's "Spirit Board" show. You can initially see my papercut at the 9 second mark!



Oooo! I recently got to see the AMAZING Zola Jesus during Halloween weekend. Here she is performing "Night" at the show I attended...



Time to share some new goodies...yes?

I found this beautiful, starry etched glass vase at work. Only $6!!! It's perfect for my pens, pencils, and cutting intsruments

The new issue of Lula, #13, finally arrived! I would love a print of that cover...

I found this poor dearie at work. She is in a bit of a sad shape, so tattered and neglected. I fell in love with her, and took her home. Her name is Charlotte...

A new addition to my witchy, tintype family (I added the hat!)...

Remember that glass and brass etched box? Well, it is now occupied by Timmy, the eternally sleepy bat...

Here is a new vignette that resides on my work desk. A heartbreaking funeral photo, and a beautiful German straightrazor. You can't tell, but it has carved vines and a lady's profile on the handle...

My Darling...

And finally, one of my most prized finds, a gorgeous Victorian wedding dress. Again, so shocked at how inexpensive this was...
