We discovered Carolee Clark while looking for Halloween art and we were so impressed with her, we wanted to share her beautiful Halloween art with you! The nice thing about her art, it's both beautiful to look at and functional as well. She paints on any surface, clocks, plates, wooden stools, wooden boxes, the list is endless! Please stop by her site and take a look for yourself, you'll see just how right we are. Carolee Clark is a fantastic artist!! Below, you'll find a bit about Carolee Clark in her own words.

"Hello and welcome! My name is Carolee Clark and I’ve been doing art in some form for as long as I can remember. I’ve studied both commercial and fine art and the scope of my experience has included everything from crystal engraving and calligraphy to watercolor, acrylic paintings and oils. All my work is created in the studio of my Pennsylvania home, which I share with my wonderful husband and our four furkids. The real kid has left the nest, and now I spend most of my days with a paintbrush in my hand.

I had a show at the annual “Halloween Opera” Art Show held in Jim Thorpe, PA on October 7th of this year, and I’m a member of eBay’s first Halloween Art group, EHAG (the Eclectic Halloween Artist’s Group).

I am inspired by all things magical, wicked and whimsical; fairy tales and legends, ghost stories, childhood Halloweens and just about anything in the natural world around me. Most of my work is painted in acrylics on signs and wood functional items, but I try to find the time to work in other mediums as well. I’ve recently been experimenting with incorporating three dimensional accents into my work and I love it! Many hours go into the creation of each design, and I try to give each piece it’s own personality and sense of whimsy.

 

I’ve been selling my art on eBay for five years now. What began as a few “bewitching” pieces during the traditional Halloween season has turned into a year round passion! One of the nicest aspects of selling my work on the web has been “meeting” all the wonderful art collectors, witchy enthusiasts and animal lovers from all over the world.

Please stop by my website and browse my magical gallery for a sampling of some of my work. Please let me know if you have any questions or comments - I love hearing from you! Thanks so much for your time!"
