mold mice

A mold we just took out of the cabinet. Some creature was using it for a pantry! Probably mice. We have no idea where the corn was gathered from!

Old Windstone photos

I was digging through boxes, and found some more photos I thought you might like to see.

This is Windstone Editions in full swing when we were in California on Saticoy St. in North Hollywood. These show the paint department, and were probably taken around 1989.
(That is a guess, we really should of documented things better!)

Raffle prize for Febuary 2010

Here is "Reveler"! He is the Windstone forum raffle prize for February 2010.
I named him "Reveler" when I realized I had painted him in purple gold and green; the colors of Mardi Gras!
Very appropriate.
If you are a Windstone forum member and you would like to win Reveler, email me your forum name with the words "February raffle" in the subject line.
If you haven't entered these raffles before, email me your forum name, real name and address.
If you aren't yet a forum member, heavens, you are most welcome! http://www.windstoneeditions.com/forums/

Savannah griffins

Griffins are hybrid creatures so it makes sense to paint them like hybrids.

New Snerl

Took us a year to get this new mark stamped on the pads, but they have been starting to appear on pieces. Check any new pieces you've gotten and see if you can tell if Snerl is smiling or not. Unfortunately his face gets blurry on the smaller pads so you can't tell how happy he is to live in Oregon!

Sugar PLum Poads

I painted a batch of Sugar Plum Poads!

This was fun, since there seems to be no consensus on what the heck a "sugar plum" IS, exactly, I was free to interpret it my own way.
These poads are airbrushed with layer upon layer of metallic paint. I used contrasting colors to subdue and darken the bright underlying hues, resulting in a color that has as much complexity as the "Autumn Leaf" color.

Autumn Leaf Secret Keeper

At last, the Autumn Leaf Secret Keeper is finished. Took me a few years to get around to completing her!
This dragon sculpture is cast out of gypsum and hand painted by me, Melody Pena. She is seventeen inches tall and weighs over thirty pounds.
My poor back.

I was asked about our "mini catalogs" in a thread by "Kitsunelady" on our Windstone forum:

November raffle prize!

This is a mother dragon that I test painted... in a color I don't have a name for. I think I'll call it something like "Toasted Pearl", but I don't love that name. If you have a better name, let me know!
She is marked like a Siamese cat, but she has a pearl colored body and "points" that I have airbrushed with copper, brown and dark brown. She also has some violet on the darkest areas which match her amethyst jewels and lavender eyes.
