Elftowners, I would like to introduce you to one of our talented artists who creates striking images that inspire awe and fascination: [
Friendly with Trolls]!
What's your name?:
Nikki Rossignol
What is the story behind your user name?:
When I was very little I would see little red and green spirit creatures in the woods. I called them Brimskis and began drawing pictures of them at a very early age. The Brimskis in the woods behind my house were my very first playmates. I feel that I owe them much of my creativity and passion to create. When I start a new painting it's the same feeling I would get when I would spot a Brimski in the woods. I cannot see them anymore but in some ways I think that painting is my grown-up way of looking.
What do you do for a living?:
I make stuff. I work as a freelance illustrator. I do album covers, children's book illustrations, concept art, and so on. I also make costumes and jewelry. Sometimes I land little dance gigs and get paid to frolic about.
What are your hobbies?:
I enjoy a good woodsy frolic. I also like hiking adventures, cross-country skiing, snowshoeing, climbing trees, snowboarding, crystal hunting, waterfall swimming, dancing, and searching for vortexes.
How were the graphics/pictures in your house made?:
Mediums? Well I work mainly in watercolor and ink as far as painting goes. When making jewelry I like to take apart old stuff and reassemble it into something new. I also work with the things I find in nature like quartz crystals, acorns, pinecones, feathers, and stones.
Is there a particular thing you like about Elftown, such as a specific wiki?:
I really enjoy the featured art page.
