I'd like you to meet Betty Barn Owl, created for the EHAG/PFATT "Screampunk" Art Challenge.

Hello Friends, I'd like to introduce you to Ms. Betty Barn Owl.  Betty has faced many challenges in her life but she has emerged a survivor with a strong and loyal spirit.
She is my "Screampunk" Art Challenge piece.  This art challenge was created for the members of both PFATT and EHAG art groups.  The challenge was to create a piece that combines Steampunk and Halloween! 




This challenge was so much fun! 
Betty will be available on EBAY starting tonight.  Her auction will end Sunday night. 
I hope you will stop by and read the story of how she became a Magical Owl.
CLICK HERE to go to her auction.

My Inspiration.

Please make sure you look up Screampunk on EBAY and check out the EHAG emporium on the 31st for more challenge pieces by several of my super talented artist friends.
I feel very fortunate to be included as all of the challenge pieces I have seen are amazing! 
Have a wonderful week! 
Sylvia : )

SCREAMPUNK!!!! EHAG & PFATT Combined Challenge

Hi Everyone! I hope you are all doing well and staying busy with what you love.
I have been very busy in the studio lately! This is my next endeavor.  I will be creating a one of a kind Screampunk doll.  
What is Screampunk you ask? Well it's a combination of steampunk (victorian-technology) and Halloween!!! 
What am I making?
 Well, I will give you some hints...it's a SHE.  I have her head sculpted and attached to her body, I have to make WINGS.  Then finish her by painting her and dressing her. Once she is done she will be listed on EBAY the last week of March.  I will post a sneak peak for you once she is done. 
Any Guesses?
