Fantastic Dreams: Pantovola

Anouk Pantovola is creating dreamlike images and dolls that will make you think of a spookier Marc Chagall. Pantovola's pieces aren't frightening, but they do evoke the underworld. I like her art dolls as much as her prints. See for yourself at Pantovola.

The Witches are Coming Print
Wolf Witch Sculpture
The Ghost House Glicée Print
Isobel with Moon Art Doll
Joan of Arc Shadow Box
Murdered Green Lady Print

Looking at these makes me want to go back to bed to explore what's inside my dreams.

Suzanne van den Nouweland is the shop owner.

Dark Garden : Defy Jewelry

I have to say this has been the mildest winter at our home since we moved here 15 years ago. I'm a bit worried that my garden is going to start coming to life only to be cut down by a late winter storm. Maybe that's why Kittisak Teatasin's gothic jewelry caught my eye. Her Dark Garden collection is filled with beautiful blossoms and skulls; reminding us that beauty is fleeting. In addition to the Dark Garden collection, you'll find Skull and Diamonds and Graphic Skull collections. The shop is Defy Jewelry.
