ArtSpace on Sixth

Today was the last day of the Steampunk Art Show at ArtSpace on Sixth.  Talking to the owners, the show was a success.  I figured it would be.  Steampunk enthusiasts are a lot of fun, and would go a long way to celebrate or view their genre. 

I feel honored to have my pieces on display in such a neat gallery.  The building is not only a gallery, but houses several studios where - if you are lucky - you can catch a few artists at work.

The owner, Davin is a photographer who has captured samples of the various artists and displays them on his website. This is the address to his website if you would like to browse.  http://www.artspaceonsixth.com/index.htm

Pictures from the Steampunk Spectacular

I have been in two Steampunk Art Shows in the past two weeks, and am getting a lot of questions on Steampunk. My personal interpretation is ... a combination of Victorian Romance, Steam Technology, and Science Fiction/Fantasy.  It is the world today as it might have been if steam continued to be used to power machines.  Think of the "Wild, Wild, West" television show ... or Jules Vernes' technological creations.

Pictures from the Steampunk Spectacular that was held at Evermore Nevermore in Mesa on Feb 12 & 13 ... these are a few examples of what the artists have created:

Steampunk Hat by Brose Brothers; Flying Machine by Ed Schenck; Steampunk Light Saber by William Mullins 

 

 

And of course... the jewelry.

Steampunk Kinda Week!

The Friday night Steampunk Spectacular was a success!!!  I could not believe how many people turned out!  There were times when you could not move because of all the people.  

I met so many Steampunk artists and fans... one of the fans is MINE!!!  (I did not know I had one!) 
She has bought three of my pieces (so far!)  She was wearing an Eye Jewelry ring on Friday.  Melissa... thank you for being my first fan.

I also met Davin from "Artspace on Sixth" in Scottsdale.  A really nice man who is hosting a Steampunk Show in his art studio for the next two weeks.  I set up my display yesterday.   He is hosting the opening of the exhibit this Thursday.   Check it out if you can.  The studio is huge (7700 square feet of art!)  It is in the Old Town Scottsdale area, right off of Scottsdale Road.

OMG... I just realized how easy that blog was.  I have progressed.  :)

Steampunk Spectacular!

I have had a very busy week.  I am preparing for the Steampunk Spectacular at Evermore Nevermore in downtown Mesa this coming Friday and Saturday.  I spent time today running around town looking for pretty lace for my display table.  I did not find what I wanted, but did buy a lace parasol that I can use. 

Eye jewelry is mostly ready... I have Steampunk items ready too. 

Courtney is going to help me make some chokers tomorrow.  I still need to take pictures and tag them all. 
 I will put up some pictures of the finished product in the next few days.

Stop by the store if you have time.  It should be fun for all, and an unusual experience for most some.  (tee hee)

Pet Affirmation

Making lots of Eye Jewelry, and Steampunk stuff for next week.  Also, I am working on a new batch of Pet Affirmations... I finally took some pictures of Naboo, our Granddog, with her special tag.  She doesn't really care about it.  But her Mother and I really get a kick out of it.
