hand painted captain spaulding bag

this bag was a pain to create, i had to keep freezing the movie because I wanted to create a medley of scenes from the very beginning of the film . Its where you first see the museum and gas station. This movie inspired a lot of my work , the fish girl bag the gator girl bag, inspired by fishboy. I love the counter culture aspect of the whole look and feel of the movie and I wanted to try and apply this feeling to the bag. This bag is baked and sealed for protection, I plan to do a few pairs of shoes as well.

Dead Girl Discussions....

New LinkedIn Professional Group/Discussion Board for Artwork By Living Dead Girl Nicole!

That's right...I thought a LinkedIn Group would be a great way for me and my Freaky Fanatics to discuss my art on a professional level. I don't do Facebook and other social media type sites anymore as I don't like people in my personal business and I like to keep my personal life seperate from my business life. 

 LinkedIn however is a professional site for people looking for work and to spread the word with their connections to get work, jobs etc. Therefore I have a resume on there and I only connect with people that I work with professionally. This Group/Discussion board is a great way for people to inquiry, comment or connect with me to hire me for work. It is also a place where customers aka Freaky Fanatics can go to discuss work I have done for them or to inquiry about more work as well. 

 Also make sure to check out the promotions section because group members will get special coupon codes for my Etsy Shop too! So go join! I have already started various discussions based on the various types of art work that I do.

Etsy Massacre Team - Shop of the Month for April 2012 - RudeandReckless

Looking for some unique zombie finds or just unique finds in general... then check out RudeandReckless our Etsy Massacre Team - Shop of the Month for April!!

What is your favorite horror movie related item in your shop at this very moment and why?

My favorite horror movie themed item is my zombie repellent soap. I am a HUGE fan of zombie films and it's practically impossible for me to just pick one as my favorite, Just the thought of a zombie apocolypse is seriously frightening to some and it really makes you think what would would you really do if that situation were really upon us.

What is it about horror movies that inspires you and your art?

As far as inspiration, horror films bring out a creative edge. Being a fan of gore and general creepiness, It helps me to constantly challenge myself, to make things look more real, or if i'm making body parts, more anatomically correct. I am big into sculpting creatures, and horror films generally bring a new realm of special fx to the table that you wouldn't see in most films, other than the fantasy genre.

Why did you join the Etsy Massacre Team?

Originally I was invited to join the Etsy Massacre team and after finding more of what the team was about, I became enthralled at the thought that there were other creative individuals just like myself. Who were as big into the horror genre as me. Its great knowing im not alone in my likes, and its wonderful having others to share with, as well as keep me motivated to create more horror themed items. Which I never intend to steer away from :)
