Cookie is just one of about 25 rescue doggies currently living at Bichon and Little Buddies Rescue in Mukwonago, WI while waiting for their "forever" home.  I have been a volunteer at the rescue for the past two years.

It is my goal to raise whatever money I can through the sale of my DZFANTASY fiber art and fantasy jewelry to help these little creatures be properly taken care of until they can find their forever homes.  Towards this goal, I am donating 100% of any sales made either through my DZFANTASY shop on ARTFIRE (http://dzfantasy.artfire.com), ETSY (http://dzfantasy.etsy.com) or through the Blue Heron Artisan Gallery in Port Washington, WI (http://blueheronport.com/donna-zeigler.html)

Each month I will be posting what has been sold and funds donated to the rescue, (hopefully, each month there will something to share) here on my DZFANTASY blog.  I feel fortunate and blessed to be able to do this at this time in my life.  The love and need of these four-legged creatures is more than compensation.

I currently have numerous Swarovski crystal earrings for sale in my shop on ARTFIRE, at the low price of $8.00 and $10.00, so be sure to stop by for a visit.  I also have a wide variety of fiber sculptures, handknit fiber jewelry and earrings in the Blue Heron Artisan Gallery in Port Washington, WI, so if you live in the area be sure to stop by for a visit.  It is a great gallery and has a lot of nice art there for purchase.

1. What led you to start creating your art/craft?

I have always been in love with the fantasy genre and had a strong interest in drawing, and when I was a young girl decided I wanted to be an illustrator or artist in some form. I was very fortunate to have my family give me a lot of support, encouragement, and send me to art classes. I tried out many painting mediums including both traditional and digital, sculpture and doll making, sewing, and jewelry making but my main focus has been on digital painting. It was in April that I decided to try combining my artwork with jewelry to make wearable art.

2. How did you decide what medium you wanted to work with?

Digital is my favourite medium because I can freely create and experiment without being conscious of how much material I am using. I always have complete control and freedom of my canvas, and I don't see it as a crutch or feel shame in using that freedom.

3. What aspect of creating your art, do you find the most fascinating?

When I have a particularly fun project to work on, or an idea that I really need to bring to life, it is work but sometimes it doesn't feel like it. I can spend hours assembling jewelry pieces or working on a new painting and the time flies by. Though this is definitely not always the case! Sometimes it can be very frustrating, but always worth it in the end because everything is a learning experience.

4. If you had to choose a fruit OR a vegetable, to describe your art, what would you choose, and why?

I would like to say tomato, because beauty lies in the eyes of the beholder, but I believe the cherry best represents my work. I love to use reds, and cherries are small but have very feminine flowering trees.

5. If you had to choose one other medium in which to display your “creativity”, what would that be, and why?

I would like to paint full sized in oil someday. There's just a different feeling standing in front of a large painting, and I find the medium very fun to work with.

6. What message, if any, do you want to convey with your art?

I try to tell a story, describe the culture and emotions of a character, or depict a dream-like environment to let the viewer's imagination wander.

7. What advice do you have for other artists?

Be proud when you create something you think is beautiful, be accepting of helpful criticism, treat your customers or clients kindly, and always strive to improve yourself.

Thanks, Leanna, for sharing your thoughts and wonderful fantasy creations with us.  It was great to get to know a bit more about you and what motivates you to create!  Best wishes for success!!
