I'm an artist living in Maine, I mostly sculpt but I also draw, paint, and dabble in 3d modeling/animation. Please visit my gallery site:
Check out my blog too!
You can now buy my creations from my eCrater Store!
Just revamped my cafepress store. You can now buy I <3 Cephalopod shirts! You can also buy shirts and other stuff with my Mermaid, Sorceress' Apprentice and An tEach Uisce.
If you like what you see on in my gallery I do a small number of commissions, sculptures take quite a while to finish so I don't have the time to produce more than a couple commissions at a time. Sadly this means I may have to refuse commissions if I don't have the time for them, I will always finish a commission I start so if you get on the list your sculpture is assured. Just email me at noadiart@gmail.com or message me here with "art commission" in the subject so I don't accidentally delete it so we can discuss details. Have a description of what you want, size that you wish (please note I don't work larger than 24 inches tall), and any sketches or photos ready. I don't do any work based on celebrities or tv/movie characters, I will do literary characters as long as you don't want another artist's version of the character reproduced, I'm more than willing to do portraits of you, family, friends or pets.
Permapets.
So here's the whole series so far. Octopuppies, cuddlefish and nudibranches. You can find them on my website on the Perma-Pet or the Octopuppy pages.
Satyr
This was a fun sexy sculpt to do, he's polymer clay and painted in acrylics. More info can be found on the Satyr's page on my site.
Odin's Runesong
The god Odin hung for 9 days and nights on the world tree Yggdrasil to learn the secret of the runes. Since I have a big interest in body modification and ritual this is a great image to explore.
Other artists, anyone who enjoys fantasy and science fiction, and most definitely anyone who likes my artwork. And of course any of my family or friends that are here.
This little darling proudly displays her peace sign for everyone to see, and she has arrived at a time when the world really needs to hear the message she so boldly shares. Kasmira's slavic name means "Commanding Peace", and she was brought into our realm to do just that. She has had enough of the pain & suffering that fighting and war bring, and she has decided to speak out against it. She is here to ask us to remember who WE are. She wants each one of us to "wake up" and realize that we are all connected...we are all childen of the same God...the same Universe. She wants us to open our eyes to the fact that we are all ONE, and give peace a chance. Please help her spread her message of love & peace, and remember that YOU can make a difference!
