2015 will be a Wicked Year

As 2014 has faded away to 2015, Wicked FairyTale has embraced the New Year as a chance for expanding its horizons and bringing some fresh ideas to both its business practices and its Collectors.

With last year being the opening of Wicked FairyTale, but not the first year I have been in business, there has been some changes along the way as my Dragons and their stories became increasingly popular among my growing fan base.

One of the first changes was a streamlining how my custom orders came in as Facebook at times was unreliable and held my messages hostage. Having my orders coming through my personalized form that gave me notifications via email, helped provide the customer service that I wanted to provide in a timely manner. This form can be found here: http://form.jotform.us/form/43203465026143

Also, I began to offer a wider variety of products, like my Fire-Eyed Dragons and new Magical Creatures which stayed in my specialty of fantasy sculptures but offered my fans different options.

2015 opened with my new logo reveal and that sets the trend of the upcoming changes that will be coming this year. More products will be launched, as well as videos, work in progress (WIP) snippets and perhaps tutorials as time allows.

As business focuses are always being refined and changing, the first quarter of 2015 will see a stop in Character Sets as I take time to focus on my own original work and Custom orders for both returning and new Collectors.

I am looking forward to creating more unique, fun Dragons and other creatures and I am so grateful for my ever growing Wicked Family.

Artist against BSL

Since leaving my job in March and pursuing my profession in the Arts, I’ve had lots of time to try different mediums. I have found that I quite enjoy Charcoal sketching. I decided to combine my love of art with another love, pitbull rescue.

I am blessed to have two beautiful pitties, Arie and Stella. Stella recently turned four years and Arie is now about 10 months. When we first rescued Arie a few days before Valentine’s day, she was sweet, timid and very loving. Being a photographer, I, of course, needed to have beautiful pictures of the new addition. Little did I know those pictures would become an inspiration for a bigger cause.

Fast forward a few months to after leaving my job in the pharmaceutical industry. I had begun to dabble with charcoal medium and a bit of computer manipulation using Photoshop. As a photographer I had never been a fan, but as an artist this was my biggest ally. I drew my sketch and tweaked the photo here and there, adding a bit of symmetry and definition that I lacked as an amateur sketch artist. The digital tweaks also allowed me to fine tune colors to present a wide range of print options.

We are donating $5 of each print purchase to a reputable K9 rescue organization or no-kill shelter to go towards transport, vet bills, foster care, food and much more. By the time you read this, most likely the proceeds donated from each print will increase as I’m trying to explore ways to be more cost effective. In addition, my other sold work will begin to donate a portion of the proceeds also, as well as having a support system for BSL in the artistic community.


Here is the process behind the sketch. 


Please visit: Wicked FairyTale or my shop on Etsy to purchase. Please indicate a designated shelter for your donation if you'd like. 

Next time I will go into my design of a fantasy dragon egg sculpture.
