Hello friends!

My name is Natalie and I am a mixed media sculptor from Pittsburgh, PA.​ My creative process focuses on exploring the arcane mysteries of our world - studying the limitless possibilities of our world’s inexplicable encounters. Building on the strange experiences of others and myself, I often lay awake at night pondering what really goes bump in the night. Some of my creations conjure wild legends of frightening cryptids roaming the dense forests or swimming in infinite black seas, while others surmise stories of the ghostly entities or accursed spirits who walk in the shadows.

 

I have always had a fascination with miniatures. While growing up, I was often crawling under the Christmas tree to peek into the glowing yellow windows of the porcelain villages. To my disappointment, they were empty except for a bright bulb and a few lifeless bugs from years of storage. It wasn’t until my later college days that I found a way to combine my cryptic curiosity with a moth-like taste for those far away lights begging to tell their stories. Now I spend most of my waking hours creating miniatures, assembling scenes imbued with bizarre narratives that beg us all to think: “What if…?”
