UNIQUE ART PENDANTS

Welcome to Unique Art Pendants!
Ebay Store:

This is me, M.Spilane:

I am a self-representing artist, mother, wife, Domestic Diva (Ha! "Domestic Diva" sounds a little better than "One Who Does The Laundry", right?!), and a dreamer.
I'm sure I've been called other things (hehe!) - but those are what comes to my mind the quickest...
I come from a long line of artists in the family who love to paint, draw, laugh, be sarcastic and do kinda weird things. Here's some photographic evidence of that:

(*1979 - yep, I'm the funny lookin' little one*)
My mom decided Hawaiian & Tahitian dancing was in the future for us.
After 10+ years of lessons over 15 years ago I am pleased to say I can still do a darn good hula. Bring on your tiny bubbles Don Ho... (R.I.P.)
FLASH FOWARD ALMOST 30 YEARS
and I'm still in a goofy costume... damn:

"G'day, My Lady." (Humm - no matter how hard I try my Old English always sounds like a bad Australian accent...).
My family owns a shop at the Renaissance Festival and I work there every summer (I got medieval on that guy behind me).
My man still likes to ride his bike at 35 and can still do cool tricks like this:

and this:

He's a good guy and makes me laugh everyday.
I have a 5 year old boy named Ash who is already showing a love for painting and music:

And a big eyed baby girl we call Lucy who looks like a flower in her bonnet:

I have won several awards in the past at Fine Art Fairs including:Invitational Artist Award Winner - Powderhorn Fine Arts Festival (Approx. 25,000 in attendance)
Photobucket
Featured Artist and guest speaker for the Edina Art Fair committee- Edina Art Fair (Aprox. 35,000 in attendance)
Photobucket
Featured Artist TV spot - KARE 11 NEWS

I am also a mom to a 12 year old geriatric weiner dog named Joey:

Sometimes he's a stuck up artist and will only respond when we call him Joseppi.
I't odd.

Well, that's about it! Thanks for taking the time to check out a little about me & I hope you like my art!

Cute family! I love your baby girl in the bonnet. My baby is waking up right now....

Your angel pet pendants are really cute. Would you be interested in joining our sample box? This would be a great way to get more traffic to your etsy store and get your name out to more customers. Check out our website at http://www.petsjubilee.com for more information.
