Lake Attitash: The Follow Up

Hello, everyone! The Lake Attitash Association's 1st Annual Craft Fair was one to remember with great artists and music!

The day belonged to stickers and ceramics, which once again the always popular lobster hotplate! Another hot seller was the season fitting Candy Corn Witch that has now sold out (they are available on a made to order basis at the Etsy shop). Halloween also dominated the day's sticker sales!

Thank you to the Lake Attitash Association for hosting this great event and also to everyone who came and supported independent artists!

Salem Haunted Biz Bash/Baz: The Follow Up

Hello, everyone! The rain this weekend wasn't enough to dampen the festival during it's events on Saturday bringing quite a turn out, as well as Sunday that saw much better weather. Prints and coasters/trivets were the top sellers during both days of the event resulting in several pieces being sold out completely. This includes the always popular Lobster coaster/trivet that saw some of the fastest sales thus far, selling out early during the first day with Halloween designs not far behind. Paperweights were once again popular as well.

The newly debuted Halloween ornaments were also popular during the event and also sold out. So, Halloween lovers, you're in luck because I will be making more ornaments for this holiday from here on out! New designs will be coming to Etsy soon!

https://www.etsy.com/shop/KristenOKeefeArt?ref=hdr_shop_menu

Lightning Wolf Illustrations' Etsy shop has been updated with the stock changes and several items are now available on a made to order basis, such as some of the jack-o-lantern coasters and the pumpkin/jack-o-lantern 6X6 Burlap paintings.


Thank you to all who came and gave your support! Lightning Wolf Illustrations would not have come this far without you and thanks for reading!

The Witching Hour has Arrived Early...

Hello, everyone! Halloween has come early and it is introducing yet another addition to the Etsy shop: Stretched burlap wall decor and also original canvas paintings. To celebrate this new debut, they are currently the featured items of the shop and can also be found in the Holiday Decoration section. Both sinister and charming can be found to suit either the trickster or the treater.

To view these new items see the link below:

Canvas works will be available as limited editions, unlike the other items found in the shop. Once the limit has been reached and sold out, you will unfortunately be out of luck for a particular title. But, I am also pleased to announce that custom orders can now be taken for trivets, coasters, greeting cards, and ornaments. Please contact on Etsy if you are interested so pricing and subject matter can be discussed.

Burlap door plaques coming soon!

Thanks for reading and a Happy (Early) Halloween to you all!

Working for Frightful Acts

Act 4

Act 12

Act 13

I spent much of the Fall and Winter working with Frightful Acts, a company specializing in silicone masks that can be seen at various Halloween attractions and produced these works. Each mask is imbued with a character of its own that then suited to each monster to their own narrative using both traditional and digital media.
