I've been busy!
I finally uploaded a bunch of new pics and work - come check out my 2 new albums:

New photos/work 2009
and
My lace collars as interpreted by other artists

The latter is a continually growing collection of photos (and one charming and unusual painting!) that I have diligently gathered up over the past few months. I'm incredibly flattered that my collar has inspired photographers and beauties all over the world and I'm proud to present them here as a gallery showing. Please have a peek and let me know what you think....

Little Darling, the founder of "Pinups for Pitbulls" has put together an amazing project to bring awareness to the public about this friendly and loving, but highly misunderstood breed. Please visit the Pinups for Pitbulls page and order your calender now - I don't have to tell you what an important cause this is and how much it means to the animals.

Thanks from the bottom of our hearts!

*Pinups for Pitbulls* is an amazing project that I'm absolutely honored and delighted to be a part of. It's the selfless brainchild of Dierdre *Little Darling* Franklin and her loving 4-legged co-founder, pitbull Carla Lou. Little Darling appears in this Discovery Channel News Clip in one of my corset ensembles posing for her photoshoot as Miss April.

Enjoy the video & for the sake of Pitbulls everywhere - buy the calender!
You can pre-order it through Little Darling's page

Men in top hats and tails...
Women in corsets and bustles and ruffles...
Oh my!

We exhibited at SalonCon '08 to the most wonderful, well-dressed, impeccably mannered group of ladies and gents we've ever had the pleasure of meeting. Intelligent discussion, creative minds, artistic endeavors...
...and then the brilliant music of Abney Park to end the night.

I can't wait for next year!

Come visit us at our new site steamedpunk.com to get a taste of what it was like:

Been a bit crazy these last few weeks getting ready for Bike Week, but I think I've got some great stuff to show and hopefully I'll come back with empty containers! Thanks so much to all of you who've been so encouraging and understanding while I went through my neurotic workaholic craziness to get to this point. I'm on my way to Daytona (driving, of course, hauling a trailer and getting about 8 miles to the gallon...) and will be having a blast from March 1st until March 9th, when it ends.

Back in touch when I return.

Love y'all!
