I've
been making art as long as I can remember. Of course it all started
with Chaos. The earliest faerie drawings that I have date back
to when I was about 7 when I wrote, illustrated, and starred in
a book called "the Revenge of the Faeries"
I
consider myself somewhat of a jack of all trades, and my education
and experiences have always been scattered all over the board...from
theater, to literature, to astronomy, to philosophy, to music,
and just about everything else. Art comes first, I think it always
will, largely because it's the one thing that I never have much
of a choice about.
I
create my vividly colored faerie drawings by starting with a base
of marker and putting colored pencil on over it. eventually the
faeries take on a life of their own, with personalities and opinions
that I am frequently powerless to control.
I
believe that above all else, it is my purpose in life to spread
Joy, Beauty, and Belief in Magic (and Faeries). Spilling the rainbow
is my attempt to fulfill this purpose. I share credit for the
name with Sprig, my monochromatic artist friend who looks at my
pieces and tells me I've spilled the rainbow, and Ted, with whom
I was writing a story wherein the main character spills her rainbow
colored coffee on the bus in a black and white world.
