This auction has ended. Thanks to everyone who bid. Please check the front page for more auctions, going on through the first week of December, 2009.

Chimera Fancies are wearable poetry made of old recycled fairy tale books made into new art, my own chosen interstitial art form. For this auction I used an ARC of Interfictions 2, so the text on these pieces is both taken from and inspired by the stories themselves.

“The Black Dog Forever” comes from “Black Dog: A Biography” by Peter M. Ball. The mythos of the Black Dog has always fascinated me, and Ball’s crafting of mythology and memory into story captured my imagination. Ceramic pendant, iridescent green wash on green and black.
