Discarded antiques resurrected in darkness...
What began as a "dark" art-therapy outlet and metal/macabre creative endeavor, dainty, ceramic antiques that have been cloaked in black and glistened with droplets of crimson with gold detailing quickly developed a cult following in the Quad Cities and, beyond.
Being profoundly inspired by horror & heavy-metal, this really paid off for me when, to my utter surprise, Jonathan Davis of the band KORN purchased a hand-painted Isabel Doom in Downtown Davenport in 2022. He was performing in Moline, Illinois the next day.
The validation that comes with that has at times been the single reason that I continue to paint or to even open this Etsy Shop!
Since then, I have sold and commissioned plenty of hand-painted, truly unique pieces and have collaborated & vended with local artists and businesses.
You can find Isabel Doom hand-painted statuary lurking in various QC establishments on display.
Please note that every single Isabel Doom statue is sourced from a second-hand, thrift or antique shop by me: This makes Isabel Doom a proud eco-friendly artist!
If you have any questions, comments or inquiries about an art piece to add to your collection, please do not hesitate to reach out to me.
Sincerely,
Isabel Doom
