Some Days You Just Need To Get Some Head.

I thought this shop was an appropriate feature today, as the organisms that are currently taking over my body, making me feel well...less than glamorous, I can relate to these artworks in a way mimicking that of a small child who sees that creepy sunshine with the baby face on the controversial show teletubbies. If you still don't get it, I feel like a grotesque floating head with goo alright.

Don't get me wrong yes these heads are gross, but I love them, I have a strange draw towards nasty things, i mean just look at my dog.


I honestly think that many ugly things are cute, which in this cacaophobic society is not as rare as one may think, and if I had found this etsy team in high school I probably would not have felt quite so much like a square peg in a round hole.



About this shop owner:

"Hello. I've been making ceramic heads for a little over twelve years. I plan to continue to make them for quite some time, which means I need folks to buy them because they are overtaking my house.

I recognize George Ohr, Roger Verdugo, Larry David, Paul Gauguin, Jim Jones, Steve Kerr, Maurice Grossman, Robert Arneson, PK Hoffman, Frank Boyden, and numerous unnamed folk artists as my main influences up to this point.

My shop name is named 3sevens to pay homage to the mystery that is 777. I've been seeing that number on random license plates for over fifteen years. Like the Double Rainbow Guy, I wonder what it means. I doubt I ever will find out."

I need more power!!

Todays feature was supposed to be yesterday but sadly due to the gestation of some very angry mico-organisms my body has been keeping me from te things i actually want to be doing. So in light of that I will make up for this injustice by promoting 2 shops run by the same talented woman! They make me giggle, they make me nostalgic, and they must be shown to the world!!!!

Todays features.....

WildeMoon and POWERUPS!

Beth's Bio:"I have been interested in crafting and jewelry since I was a little girl. I am now a grown up graphic designer, but I find it no less enjoyable to sit down and make something with my own two hands. Being able to share the things I make, the pictures I draw, and the photos I take with others is one of the things I love most about the internet and especially about Etsy."
She also shares a shop with her hubby Wes which is called PowerUps and this is what they have to say for themselves:
"We are a pair of geeky crafters living in Texas. We enjoy creating and making fun stuff together, and we enjoy sharing said stuff with everyone. Wes is a database administrator by trade, and Beth is a graphic designer, so together we make the ultimate team of nerds."






Her barbie murders(some pictured above) have their very own Storque article: why? because they rock, and what girl honestly hasn't played murder with Barbie? I know it wasn't just me....

Love is in the air !

Happy Valentine's day everyone! What a perfect feature I have for you today, because what says Love like weddings? And what better than a stylish offbeat one at that!

Today I bring you VespertineHollow also known as Eluria Obscura

She started selling goth, victorian and steampunk mini top hats in May of 2009 and noticed that a lot of ladies purchased them to wear on their wedding day, so gradually she has shifted her focus to bridal wear for offbeat brides.

Here is how she explains her process:
"I created Vespertine Hollow in May 2009 in Portland, OR. After losing a job that I honestly hated, I decided to forge my own path using only the talents that I was born with and my love for creating beauty for others to enjoy and appreciate. Before that fateful day, creating was something that I could only do in my spare time, when I had a brief respite from the demands of working over 40 hours a week. Make no mistake, I still have a full schedule, between running my own business and full time college career, but now I can honestly say that I go to bed every night feeling fulfilled and happy to be using my hands to create the beauty that I see in my dreams. Each of my creations are one of a kind and will never be duplicated, and I am very happy to modify any of my pieces or even take custom orders and suggestions from prospective clients. I stand behind all of my designs with a money back guarantee, as I am confident in my work and always look for ways to combine quality with affordability."


As well as a deal message from Eluria:
I am offering a sale right now for people that want to purchase things to wear to the Vampire's Masquerade Ball (vampireballpdx.com/) here in Portland, OR, the coupon code is VMB11, and it's good for 15% off until the VMB at the end of March.

Romancing the Zombie

Todays shop makes me happy on multiple levels. Her artwork is so disgusting and absolutely adorable. Sick spin offs of some of my favoite things, Alice in Wonderland, Marie Antoinette, even my dirty secret love of anime. Her shop is a must stop today, so be sure to do so, let the nostalgia course through your veins.

Sacchetto: A symphony of style

Todays Feature almost didn't happen, I have been running around like a crazy person all day but I have to show you all this great seller. His style is vibrant and amazing and fabulously ghoulish.

sacchetto AKA Edward!

Here is his story:

I fell in Love with the day of the dead style of artwork on a trip to Mexico , I love the hand made quality of the style in which it is carved or crafted from tin. I was swept away by the beautiful colors that reflected the life of these adobe style building against the aquamarine water scape, I traveled from each tiny shop emerging each time with a wonderful unfound treasure , of which I would add to my collection, the timeless quality glowed from within each piece making it seem even more part of a puzzle I was constructing into one large work, I would later use as inspiration for my handbag collection.I love horror movies, retro vintage clothing, pulp fiction zine artwork and b movies, these all help to inspire my work.

Shot through the Heart with some Fine Art!

Today's feature is the artwork of Michael F Brown,

I have my eye on this guys work, something very touching about his artwork, kinda gives me chills when I look at it. Its the kind of thing you could have in your foyer entrance which would stop people dead in their tracks, just to stare and ask questions, questions which can only be answered individually. Very existentialist I know...sorry but I thrive on that, wait... No I'm not sorry...How's that for an existentialist viewpoint? "Gaze" at this:


artist statement:

My artwork will never represent just one subject. It is the past, present, and future of my mind, heart, eyes and hands. Each piece embodies a moment in time that no one else has experienced as I have.

Every second my eyes take millions of pictures, and every so often one of them has to be developed. What begins on the inside manifests onto canvas, and it is satisfying to share this with others.

I am always waiting for my next vision to emerge.

Michael is having sales all through February in his etsy shop here:

www.MFBart.etsy.com

Order soon to get it in time for Valentine's Day!

And be sure to follow him on facebook here www.facebook.com/mfbart

Just what the Dr. ordered!

Just when I thought the day couldn't get any better except for a cupcake, one fell right into my lap! FlamingoCupcake that is! This shop looks good enough to eat!
What do cupcakes have to do with horror you may ask? And I say excuse me? Do we really need an excuse for cupcakes? I mean really. That's what I thought. And by no means is her shop limited to simply sweets, she has some wonderful pop culture delights right in her shop, fun for the whole family, not just you horror freaks.

www.flamingocupcake.etsy.com
here is her proclamation:

My name is Tanya (or T) and I live with my husband and puppy in Baltimore. If Martha Stewart and John Waters had a baby, I would be that child. I studied Interior Design and love decorating my third floor condo as if it were a mid-century modern ranch home in the 1950's. I've been sewing, crafting, and creating things for as long as I can remember. It just made sense to start Flamingo Cupcake Studios (my other etsy shop is now just for my vintage clothing and housewares, ladytscosmicthings.etsy.com) I am a pop culture freak so mixing in horror elements with the rest of my vintage/retro/pinup vibe just seems to work. For anyone in the area, I will be selling at the Jim Thorpe Burlesque Festival in PA April 2-3. I am super psyched! Come out and see me!Follow her blog over here:
xatomicbettiex.blogspot.com

She has an unspecified giveaway, so if you likey what you see, you should follow, because a darkly Delicious delight may just be in the stars for you.

Today's featured shop is LilysByDesign AKA The Halloween Queen!

And oh what a Halloween Queen she is! Here is what she has to say for herself:
"Hi I'm Erin, a 34 year old mom who is a freak for Halloween. I look like a pta mom by day but I have a 9x9 inch tat on my back, a Halloween one! Still proud of it a year later OUCH!
I have an extensive Yard Haunt that has been featured in my local newspaper, and this past year the news came for 4 hours. I have thought long and hard about why I love it so. I realized that I am an artist and love to be creative. Halloween gave me an outlet,but I figured , why can't I do this all year round? So here I am.

A bit Kreepy

The Feature of the day is the Stunning KristinaKreep! AKA My Darling Frankenstein.

Kreepy says:

I consider myself a cross between Martha Stewart and Lily Munster, with lots of tattoos :p I'm a 25 year old house wife and stay at home mom of a beautiful baby girl. Our home is pretty much a Horror museum, which is great inspiration for my crafts. I do the crafting for my shop, but I also sew, paint, and I'm witchy in the kitchen. I have an intense love/obsession of horror and pinup culture, I've even done some professional pinup modeling. I began making hair accessories that reflected those loves a couple years ago and I was constantly asked where I bought them, My Darling Frankenstein was born! Almost all of my pieces are hand molded with resin and painted by me. Each skull, cameo, brain, bone, ect! I put so much love and time into each piece because they represent me and these genres I hold so dear. Quality is so important, I would never sell something I wouldn't wear myself. By hand molding pieces I can assure that quality. Some of my items are also available on a horror specialty site, houseofmysterioussecrets.com and I also had a horror convention reach out to me to vend for them this year so I'm really excited about the direction my creations are headed!

You can see more of her fabulous creations at her etsy shop:

A Ghoul's Best Friend

The featured shop of the day is AGhoulsBestFriend!
The shop owner Sara is a 25 year old living in Baltimore, this is what she says for herself;

If I had to describe myself I would say I am a cross between a sailor and a drag queen. I love glitter, fake eye lashes, and have a foul mouth that comes with no shame. I work as a book slave full time and when I am home I enjoy making accessories. I started making hair clips for myself, family, and friends a few months ago. Every time I went out I was complimented on the things I had made. One day I put my things in a small craft show to see how they would sell and after doing quite well I started an etsy page. I don't make anything that I wouldn't wear myself. I pride myself on being sweet and twisted (kind of like a candy cane) and like to bring that side out in the things that I make. Check out her lovely shop here:
http://www.etsy.com/shop/AGhoulsBestFriend

Sara will be choosing one of her delicate lovelies for a giveaway at the end of the month, but if you see something you cant live without feel free to stop into her shop. I really encourage you to follow the blog if you are not yet, check in tomorrow folks, who knows what amazingness is coming!
