delightful new creations by mixed media artist lisa kettel. i find her work delicate and over the top (but in a good way), it all works and comes together perfectly, which i think can be a hard balance to achieve when using glitter, tulle, jewels, and lace. yet, as i look at her work i keep thinking about finely spun pasteries- deliciously sweet and fragile.  i adore.

she's authored a wonderful mixed media book... and has more in the works

she blogs

she teaches her techniques (she taught at Tinsel Trading NYC- a paradise of a store)

and just seems like the kind of person you want to be friends with and grab a glass of wine.
