Feature Artist – A Surprise Guest

Good Morning,

One of my dearest friends is also an amazing and extremely talented artist.  Not only does he sculpt incredibly detailed and fabulous monsters, but he has several movie credits to his name as well, including CoralineParanorman, and the Cult Classic, The Toxic Avenger.

Some of you have seen  his work, and probably not even realized it, as well as my personal collection of his art work that I post on occasion.

Raphael Cordero or Ralph, is the owner and operator of Studio RGC and the creator of Ralph’s TMS Wax.  You can find and buy all of wonderful creations at the link above or by following the links below.

Let’s have a look at some of Ralph’s amazing work.  

Twisted Little Things

Hal I Toesis – $33.00

Skull and Bones Incense Burner – $42.00

Zombie Heads (Sold Individually) – $13.00 ea.

One of my favorites and available on Etsy is:

You may Ralph and his wonderful wax at any of the links provided.  You may also do a little homework on this creative mind by checking out the IMDB page.

Thank you for stopping by and having a look.  In hope that this has inspired you to have a gander at the other things he has on offer.  We encourage to buy handmade!

Fun Stuff To Do For Halloween Weekend Links and Promotions

Happy Friday,

I have been so busy this week filling orders and trying to make new items that I have not had much time to do much else.

Halloween arrives on Wednesday of next week and there are some fun things happening around town.

Frightened Felons at the Old Penitentiary
 Friday Oct. 26, 2012
The Old Idaho Penitentiary will once again open it’s doors during the spookiest season! Walk through 140 years of history and, of course, hear about all the scary but TRUE things that happened in every hidden corner.  All ages are welcome, but remember some themes can be too scary for kids under 10.

I attended last year as part of the entertainment. It is interesting and a lot of fun.  History rises from the Dead for this event.

Linder Farms
A real working pumpkin farm.  They are open all month, check the link for times.  This is family fun, walk the maze, but don’t get lost…
Home of BSU’s Corn Maze.

It reads “Bronco Nation”

Field of Scrams at the Farmstead
I-84 and Eagle Road…
Where getting lost means finding fun!

I have not attended this, but I have been to the corn maze and other attractions.  These are OUTDOOR events and it is COLD!  Dress warmly, and bring a flash light, there isn’t any electricity out in the fields or the woods and it’s  DARK out there!

This year is the 13th Annual Haunted World! How appropriate!  

This is the largest outdoor Haunted attraction in the area, and it is very entertaining.  The Haunted House and Walk through the woods is nerve-racking fun!   Things jump out at you, costumed players pop out when you least expect it, diving from the corn rows or stalking you through the woods, and there are things planted and buried along the path (like trampolines) that make you feel uneasy.   Spooky, scary fun!

Please remember to follow the links for information, many of these events require a ticket or admission fee.  Times and dates are listed on their websites along with other information, like maps and directions.

Be safe out there this weekend!

Thank you for coming by and scaring up something to do!

The Alchemists Vessel would like to wish you a Spooktacular weekend!

Friday – Links and Promotions

 

Good Morning,

The weekend is here and I am looking forward to it.  Means that I will have some time to sequester myself in the Office and get some stuff done.

I was cruising around the interwebs looking for something interesting to share.  I found a couple of videos on glass-making, and thought it might be fun to search for glass beads, this is a neat little video about glass beads and how they are made.

Have you seen this yet?  My very favorite Twisted Little Thing from my friend and very talented sculptor Ralph Cordero.  If you’re in to unique collectibles don’t miss out on these gruesome cuties!

Hal I Toesis

Description: Twisted Little Thing – Hal I Toesis – Approx 3 inches tall 4.5 inches wide. Solid cast resin, detailed mini sculpture collectible. 

I knit, and I just love this idea!  I must find patterns to make these for myself. I found them on Etsy and I know at least two of that read this are just going to go nuts for these macabre creations fresh off the needles!  These are just awesome and lots of fun.

Amigurumi Zombie Head

Description: While zombies are generally looked down upon as uncouth and uncivilized members of society, they’re really just trying to get by the best way they know how and want nothing more than to get along with (and eat) their fellow man.

This handsome gent has pink eyes, black hair, and a lovely crimson gash along his right cheek.

Zombie heads are approximately 2.5″ high and are made with acrylic yarn, wool felt, embroidery floss, cotton and/or polyester thread, polyester fiberfill stuffing, fabric glue, and fabric ink.

This item may present a choking hazard and is not intended for small children or pets.

****************************************************

And while we are on the subject of random weirdness, let’s take a little segue and ask the readers:

Just what the heck is this thing?

Yes, I know it’s a spider, smarty pants.  What I want to know is what kind of spider this is.  I have never seen one before.  I was sitting at the workbench and up the wall it crawled.  This is big, too, you could put it on a leash and take it for a walk.  No, I didn’t squish it, I caught it and put it outside.  It has a reddish-brown thorax and legs, it’s abdomen is black and striped in white.  Creepy little arachnid.  Any ideas on what it might be?

Thank you for stopping in and having a look.

The Alchemists Vessel would like to wish you a pleasant weekend.

Many of you may remember those fun little macabre monsters from last year, “Twisted Little Things”, and there are more to be had (finally!).  Four new Heads of State for your collection, available through Etsy.

Five Great Gifts to Give

Good Morning,
Here we are another Tuesday and another Five Great Gifts to Give ideas.  Click the price and be whisked away to the items page or site.
Created, sculpted and cast by Raphael Cordero of Studio RGC, Master Mold Maker, Sculptor, Artist, and my very dear friend.  Zombie Heads are just awesome and at $13.00, a very nice price, these collectibles are a MUST HAVE for fans of zombies, monsters, and all things macabre!  These wee beasties are highly detailed, you can paint them or leave them as they are. 
From the Seller: 1/6 Scale solid cast resin zombie head
Paint it or leave as is – cool replacement for the lost GI Joe or Ken Head (especially Ken)
Sold individually

My very good friend, American Artist, Allan O. Mudd, is up next with $25.00 Giclee prints of his Original Acrylic Paintings.  Giclee is a digital process and I do not know much about it.  The first one offered is a Tiger, 8 x 11″.  Contact him for further details.  Allan’s art ranges from small (like the Tiger print) to enormous 3′ x 4′ paintings on Masonite, cabinet doors, walls, floors, paper, canvas. Talented, with a unique style all his own, give his other works a look too!  There is no doubt it is an AOM original.
These are so cute, and very very clever!  $4.00  Upcycled re-purposed Puzzle Piece Earrings.  Created by Shelly Moody of Green Witch Designs, she is one crafty Witch!  What a fun and unique idea for jewelry!  There is more than one pair of these Jigsaw Puzzle earrings available, have a look around her store for other fun things.  Reduce, reuse, recycle!  She has that down pat!  I just bought a pair of her earrings, her jewelry is fun, spunky and so reasonably priced, I couldn’t resist!

We like Purple, oh yes we do!  Prices vary on this fun and cool list of items.  Purple Passion Treasury curated by The Brick Boutique is a collection of items from their store and around Etsy, that are, you guessed it, purple.  Jewelry, clothing, nick-knacks, everything is purple.  I am honored and excited to be included in this collection.   Here is a knitted item from their shop, and yes, it’s purple and looks wonderfully warm!
Last but not least and there is not link or price for this one.  Remember to treat yourself with kindness and respect, every day!  Sometimes the best gifts are the ones we give ourselves.   Take a moment for you!  Have a cup of tea, sit under a tree for five minutes, take a walk around your block or neighborhood.  Swing on a swing, slide down a slide, take a long hot shower.  Relax, rejuvenate, renew your spirit.  Slow down, skip that text message and pet your dog or your cat, talk to your child or a friend face to face instead.  Breathe.
