MoontreeStudioShop

Who am I? Such a great philosophical question! I come from a long line of women artists, and I learned about making things from my mom. 💞 

I'm a person with many inspirations and first focused seriously on an artistic medium back in the early 1990s through stained glass work. I created sculptures and windows, as well as taught the craft for a couple of years. I eventually decided that I had probably breathed in enough lead solder so moved on. 🙀

By 1995, my creative focus turned to designing and building websites, and I had a good long run of over 20 years! My early web designs were published in the now vintage classic, “Web Design Templates Sourcebook.”

During the web years, I also built a fairy and dollhouse miniatures business creating furniture and elaborate fairy houses and dwellings. Some of this work was published in “Fairy Homes & Gardens” by Ashley Rooney, and Barbara Purchia in 2014, and several more of my pieces will be in the upcoming, Volume 2 due out 2023. A partial archive of this work still lives on Flickr (link below).

Now, I am happily retired from working for others and am excited to dedicate myself full time to studio work. I recently began this new phase so I'm experimenting, iterating, and having lots of fun. 

Moontree Studio is the name of my shop, and it’s located beside an actual magic forest on Moontree Ranch in the wilds of enchanted New Mexico. I use all of my care, skill, and experience to craft every OOAK creature I create, and I always add a dusting of precious fairy dust acquired long ago.

Thanks for reading and hello from my corner of the world! Tori 🙌⚘
