Halloween and Vine - The Afterglow

It's amazing how something that you spend all year looking forward to can come and go in the blink of an eye. I spent many months preparing for Halloween and Vine, and in a few short glorious hours it was over. But how glorious those few hours were!

People lined up hours before the event. In fact, one of my collectors from San Diego was the FIRST in line at 5:01 am! (thanks Anne!). I was overwhelmed with the heartfelt praise and compliments I received from so many people who follow me on my blog and Facebook. It was so wonderful to finally be able to "put a face" to so many of my Facebook friends!

The first 60 minutes of the show were a blur. Honestly, the crowd in front of my table was several people deep! I consider myself so lucky to have such wonderful friends, fans and collectors - I have to keep pinching myself to make sure I'm not dreaming. I wanted to talk at length with each and every collector that purchased one of my creations, but the chaos of the morning made it too difficult to spend some quality time with everyone. I hope next time I can chat longer with everyone.

The show was a huge success thanks to the efforts of the Ginny and Christy (the show promoters) and also to the amazing artists who I was lucky enough to join. The level of professionalism at the show is top-notch and to be surrounded by such amazing artistry and creativity is truly inspiring. I'm already ramped up and ready for Halloween and Vine 2012!

My next show is in three weeks (Oct. 15) at Glitterfest in Tustin, CA  - another high quality venue. Please visit their web site at http://www.glitterfest.com. Hope to see you there!

It's Time for Halloween and Vine!

Wow! Did this year go by fast! It's hard to believe that it is time once again for Halloween and Vine!

If you are not familiar with this show, it is an amazing collection of artists from all over the country (even a few from Canada!). The purpose is to showcase the best in original Halloween creations - and I am fortunate to be attending for my second time.

If you would like more information for the show, please visit the web site for details...  http://www.halloweenandvine.com

I'm SO looking forward to showcasing my new creations, seeing old friends and finally getting to meet some of my collectors and Facebook fans face-to-face. Please stop by my table and say "hello!"

Look for some event photos on my Facebook page - hope to see you Saturday!

Things That Go Bump in the Night

Halloween is just around the corner! And that means it's time to gear up for the Fall shows that I will be attending this year (see my web site for the complete schedule).

Now, I fully realize that not all my collectors and fans can make it out to California for the shows. So this year, I've decided to bring the show to YOU! I'm having my first-ever "online show" called "Things That Go Bump in the Night."

This collection of new and original Halloween creations will feature a motley crew of skeletons, witches, pumkins and ghoulies. These exclusive creations will be available on a first-come first-served basis, so mark your calendars for September 7th and be there to get your claws on one of these new spooky pieces when the doors creak open at 6pm (pst) !

EHAG Emporium Exclusive - Bernie the Vacation Skelly

Growing up in Southern California meant that our annual summer trip was almost always to Disneyland. I looked forward all year to that one special day, usually right around Labor Day. Years later, I still look forward to trips to the Magic Kingdom (although with an Annual Pass, those trips are now much more frequent than once a year).

Bernie the Vacation Skelly is my tribute to those magical summers. Bernie is hand-sculpted from papier-maché, painted in acrylics, stained and sealed. He is approx. 11" high, signed, dated and comes with a Certificate of Authenticity.

If you would like to take Bernie home, simply click the "Buy Now" button below to purchase via Paypal. Thanks for looking, and have a wonderful rest of the summer!

Bernie is SOLD! Thank You!

Skelly in the Sun

The EHAG Emporium opens it's doors once again on Thursday, June 30 at 9pm (6pm PST), and I have a brand new creation to offer. I don't want to give too much away right now, but here is a sneak peak. Hint...even Halloween skeletons like to get out and have some fun in the sun!

See you at the Emporium! http://ehagemporium.blogspot.com/

The Samples are Here!

 

I just received my first look at sample prototypes from ESC Trading Co. that are being built from my original designs. At first glance, I had a tough time telling which was mine and which was the sample! I think that is a good sign that I choose the right company to reproduce my work. With just a few tweaks and adjustments, I will be ready to give my approval for reproduction.

The finished pieces will be created in a type of paper-pulp; this will help give the reproductions the same look and feel as my original construction. ESC Trading Co. is planning on offering 10 of my designs for their 2012 Spring collection.

Seeing these sample photos really helps makes this dream a reality. I think I can stop pinching myself now to see if I'm dreaming; all this pinching is making me black and blue!
