Renegade Craft Fair...

Today I headed out to the Renegade Craft Fair: Brooklyn held in the old McCarren Park Pool. It was pretty hot and I felt a little bit brain-damaged by the heat, but it was a good time. I picked up lots of goodies!

Left: Here's a quick snap-shot of Jamie Fales of Noosed Kitty. With her sense of dark-humor, she creates sensitive drawings and paintings that modernize seemingly mythological subject matter.

Check out her blog to get the latest information and musings of this Long Island-based artist.

Right: This is one of the goodies that I picked up at Jamie Fales' table. It's a greeting card, but I think I might frame it to go along with my Bunny Boy by Jen Tong. Make sure to visit Jamie's etsy shop by CLICKING HERE.

Left: I picked up the large version print of this piece titled, "The Watching" by Jamie Fales. I just love the little detail of the owl in the trees. You can get your's by CLICKING HERE.

Right: This is a quick picture of Jaime Zollars at her booth. She also creates beautifully-rendered images heavily influenced by fairy-tales.

Make sure to check out her blog specifically about paper toys.

Luckily they took cards at Jaime's booth, because it was darned near impossible to find an ATM near the fair and I definitely wanted to get some things from her table.

Left: An open edition silkscreen titled, "Homeless." Get your's by CLICKING HERE. I got the button of this piece as well to add to my owl curio case.

Right: I got another print from her for my growing collection. Here's an image grabbed off her website of the large, limited-edition silkscreen titled, "The Stirrings." CLICK HERE to get one for yourself.

Left: Here is another picture taken off Jaime's website of the greeting cards I purchased at her booth. The illustration for the cards is named, "Home." I'm really digging Jaime's work, especially her Flemish-painting inspired pieces. I will have to add them to my wishlist.

I had to fight a crowd of people hovering around Faryn Davis of Fernworks Fine Art to get a look at her resin jewelry and small-scale paintings.

Cynthia has an early Faryn Davis piece. We would go to the Fernwork website and look covetously at her pieces.

Left: I finally got one! Here is a picture of it next to a quarter to get a sense of scale.

Right: I got a limited-edition print titled, "Balanced" by artist Jane Anne Wynn of Wynn Studio at the Art Star Philly booth. Seeing all their goods at the fair made me want to go on a road-trip to their store.

Left: Here is a picture of all the (owl) artist mirrors that I got from My Favorite Mirror. I just have to figure out a way to display them now. The one on the upper left was designed by Eleanor Grosch. The one on the lower right was designed by Kathleen of Seamripper.net. The other two feature artwork by Susi Ghahremani of Boy Girl Party.
