Winona Cookie Creations
"When I’m not busy being a psychologist, I’m busy making art, something I have done for as long as I can remember.  Since I can’t seem to settle on just one career, it’s not surprising that I can’t settle on just one artistic style either.   I enjoy creating whimsical children’s illustrations in watercolor, but also like working with collage, assemblage and making jewelry.  Let’s face it: my studio’s a MESS!  So while I’m snipping, gluing and painting, I’m channeling Maurice Sendak, Ed Gorey and Alphonse Mucha, and hoping you like the results.  While I can sometimes recreate something I’ve done, I’m not interested in mass production, so my offerings will tend to change often – keep checking back!"
"About Winona Cookie: Winona Cookie was my imaginary friend when I was a kid.  She looked just like my avatar.  Also, I LOVE cookies. And tea. Cookies and tea, both."

whimsical wednesday :: rufus and paco

Rufus and Paco
Two artists that live in a great section of Los Angeles, with their dogs Max and Milo, and cats, Willow and Ruby.  Rufus works in tin, wood, and fabric, doing mostly assemblages with found objects. Paco is a painter by trade, and works with mixed media, and also finds assemblage his favorite type of art.  "The Boys", as they are known, are always on the lookout for findings of all kinds. There is no such thing, as something that can't be turned into art.
