Canadian Artist of the month Erica Messing
I know I haven’t posted anything in quite awhile but I’ve been in the middle of a cross-country move and working without my trusty computer. Hopefully I’ll be up and running normally again in a short while. In the mean time I’d like to take this time to re-feature a painter from BC. I was recently given a piece or her art and absolutely love it. Her name is Erica Messing. You can see what she has to offer and read all about her at www.ericamessing.com. I hope you enjoy her work as much as I do. Here are just a few of her works.

About head birdbrain
Robin is an artist and a retired graphic designer living in Nova Scotia, Canada. Art has always been a major influence in her life, whether through photography, pottery, drawing, or painting. Although she thought about it for many years, she didn’t start writing until later in life. Her main influence regarding faeries was a book illustrated and written by Brian Froud and Alan Lee, although her drawings are of a completely different style. From then on, Robin began imagining her own faery world, which stayed in her imagination for many years until she finally sat down to draw and write it. When Robin began drawing characters and scenes, the full story had not yet shown itself to her. It wasn’t until most of the drawings were done that the story finally revealed itself, and she wrote the first draft of the first book, Famlaer – The Real Faeryland, which reads more like a descriptive work than a story, exploring Famlaer and its inhabitants. It provides a solid foundation for the following books: Famlaer 2 – A New Beginning in an Old Land and Famlaer 3 – A Different World, which are engaging fantasy/adventure stories for all ages.
