"Hi, Ira. I guess I'm the newby now. I agree that this could be a good forum for people like us. I'm also in the Pacific Rim Sculptors' Group here on the west coast, but the meetings are so hard to get to that it seems to function…"

Hello, I'm so glad I found you, but where are you?

Hello everyone. I'm the newbee.  Is there anyone out there? I found this group by accident, and I'm so glad I did.  First of all, I did not know there was an International Society for artists like me! SO HAPPY ABOUT THIS--sending off my membership packet TODAY.   I don't know about you, but as a mixed media / assemblage artist I sometimes feel that I'm in a group all by myself and often left out in the cold. I call it the Assemblage Blues. When I show some people my work they look at me like I…See More

Toying With Art Exhibit: Cameron Art Museum - Wilmington, NC at Wilmington, North Carolina

February 14, 2010 from 6pm to 7pm
Ongoing until March 28, 2010, this exhibit features artist made toys --99.9% are assemblage art and quite fascinating. I'm happy to say I have five pieces in this exhibit, but there are a total of 50 artists from around the globe participating. As you know there's never enough focus or exhibits focusing on assemblage artists, so be sure to see it if you are in the area.Cameron Art Museum: TOYING WITH ART EXHIBIT3201 South 17th StreetWilmington, NC 28412Phone: 910.395.5999See More

To upcycle and recycle by using vintage or discarded items in my work.

More about me

My real name is Cindy Fahnestock-Schafer. I'm a mixed media artist who specializes in assemblage and altered art. Recycling is very important to me. I use 99% discarded, recycled, trash, vintage, or found objects in my art. (Except the 1% glue it's all upcycled)

I'm also a freelance journalist and author of a children's fantasy novel. I live in Baltimore most of the time, but also in Danforth, Maine.  When I'm not working with my husband I am usually writing about Vintage Plastics, Vintage Items, Art, or Style.  I also mess around with graphics, but am far from a pro.

I'm so glad there is a society dedicated to others artists like myself. <center>
