Monster Marta




JunkerJane Junk




The word JUNK around these parts means TREASURE :D

Recently a friend sent me a package full of treats and I mean FULL!! It was such a great surprise! In the package she sent Saint Lucy. She usually sits on my bedside table but I took her to the basement for a pic. I also have several monster/dolls happening, but things like cleaning and feeding keep interupting :D
I made these paintings on wood about 5 years age before i even moved to Portland. They have been in a box all this time.

My inspiration




My basement is unfinished and is just used for storage and laundry. I have a Victorian style sofa and sidechair down there so i decided to make that space a place for my inspiration stuff.
The first photo is a monster work in progress....who will he or she be?

Dulcie







Dulcie belonged to a gypsy child and can claim to be a true gypsy herself as she was sewn bit by bit from found pieces along their travels.

He is made from mainly recycled fabrics and buttons. His suit front is a dark brown velvet.
