Announcement
I worked for many years as a costume designer and I love making things. I began working on small scale pieces because I had no room left for big costumes. I am very inspired by the colors and texture of the natural world. I respectfully build each piece with the spirit of the animals involved.
Some of these little guys inspired author Christpher Moore to make them characters in his book A Dirty Job.

5 out of 5 starsGreen Gratitude is my second piece made by this amazingly talented artist. Monique is a master of detail and color. In her hands divers, often ordinary, objects come together to create fresh and fascinating artwork. The purchase process is simple and fast; she takes great care with packing so that the art is ready to hang and enjoy. I will happily purchase from Monique in the future,

5 out of 5 starsThis glorious piece is happily at home on my fireplace mantel where everyone can enjoy its intricate beauty. The juxtaposition of the exotic (buffalo teeth) and the utilitarian (scissors, thimbles) gives it a wonderful eclecticism and energy. For a small work it occupies a larger than expected psychic space. I am thoroughly enjoying and pleased with my purchase. Communication with the artist and shipping were seamless and very fast. I recommend this seller and her beautiful work to anyone who is looking for a one of a kind, exquisitely crafted art piece.

5 out of 5 starsThink I am safe to leave the review now as my wife is too busy with holiday stuff. Once again this is exactly as described and beautifully executed. I bought my wife one of Monique’s creations for our wedding 5 years ago and we always said she was lonely so I decided to get her a friend. “Esmeralda” is excited to meet her. Thank you Monique for another fabulous creation!!
