Arctic Antics (2-ply Flannel)
by Shelly Comiskey
Like most artists, the passion to create goes
back to the earliest of memories. That is no
different for Shelly. Homework papers turned in
with doodles, hours in front of the television...
not watching.. but drawing all the cartoon
characters... and not happy just coloring from a
coloring book.. nope.. she had to draw her own
characters to color. From crayons to clay art just
made Shelly happy. That is true today!
Shelly started her career in art years ago with
polymer clay. Selling her characters at local craft
shows and malls. Later she began designing,
traveling and teaching. She has authored four
books on working with the clay in which one of
the books was with Disney on sculpting their
characters. Gradually she made the transition
back to her true passion.. illustrating! Now
mostly illustrating, Shelly is driven with a vivid
imagination and a strong passion to create, color,
and paint!
