Being only 10 years old Cameron Asten is on a fast track to become a world known artist. His creativity stretches far and wide and with his vivid imagination Cameron creates some of the best and thoughtful pieces of art since the great masters. Link, Foxs’ Den Canopic Jar Description
Influenced by a Roman Catholic upbringing, punk rock, Erte, and Edward Gorey, Hollywood native Elizabeth McGrath is one of her generation’s more unique and prolific artists. She creates in a number of mediums and materials with undeniable artistry and imagination. Her paintings are haunted whispers of color, depicting subtly dangerous creatures that creep towards the edge of the canvas. Her stitched and bandaged dolls and toys are a united army of soft strangeness and her mixed media dioramas are isolated freak shows displaying rotting subhuman figures luxuriously dressed for your pleasure of contempt.

“My name is Elsa Mora but you can call me Elsita. I am a full-time Artist who wants to do something good before I die. If my art doesn’t have a big impact on the world (which, given the odds, is more likely to happen) at least I want my children to remember me as someone who was happy to spend some time on planet Earth.” Link
