NEW YEAR… NEW SHOWS…

January 3, 2019 Meghan Leave a comment

Thank you for enjoying the strange girls I’ve created this year. (This is just a teeny portion of them!) Especially those who have truly supported me personally all year long; As well as at shows, through private commissions & those who have given my girls new homes in other states💛

Here’s a bundle of my favorite pop culture dames from 2018🎥 Shoutout to Elvira, Mistress of the Dark (official) for reposting my art (which I cranked out at 3am in a hotel in L.A. before RuPaul’s DragCon – I NEVER do that.) last May, during a time when I really needed a pick me up💋

The best aspect about shows (and basically the only redeeming quality of social media) is discovering that others love all the oddball movies/characters I adore as much as I do. That commonality makes sharing what I make worth it. I’ve had people in the past say things like “..Meghan, no one’s ever going to buy a Frankenhooker print..” and my reply is always, “Uh, the RIGHT people will!” Because it’s not about selling, I want to make what I love & you guys loving it too is the bonus!

I can’t thank you guys enough for liking what I create & I hope you enjoy the new things I have planned for 2019♥

This January, I’ll be slinging my girls at these shows: FIRST FRIDAY January 3rd outside of Revolver Records on 2nd st & Roosevelt from 6pm-11pm in Phoenix, AZ

6TH STREET MARKET in Tempe Sunday January 20th from 10am-3pm – 24 E 6th St Tempe, Arizona 85281 (on Mill Ave. between 5th & 6th)

Some of you may notice the absence of 2nd Fridays in Mesa – To be honest, that show is only worth it when I have you wonderful people show up… And if not, it’s kind of a bust. So let me know on Facebook or Instagram if you’d like me to return for November or December… And I just may!

Happy Holidays! If I don’t see you – Eat some stuffing & watch Batman Returns for me. Thanks to each and every one of you who have come to see me at any of my shows through the years, I can’t tell you how much your support means to me <3

The Terrifying Return of Dirty Teacup Designs!

October 3, 2018 Meghan Leave a comment

October is here – And so is the long awaited return of Dirty Teacup Designs at First Friday! (Okay, maybe not so much – but some people might care.)

In the past 3 months, I’m quite honestly a little proud of myself & shocked that I have finished so many new pieces that will be debuting this Friday! After getting all my prints made yesterday on GLORIOUS, GLOSSY new paper; I have discovered that I have precisely 1 million new prints for all you boys & ghouls who have a hankering for more of my weird artwork. I’d say a majority of it is essentially Halloween-y in tone, but this is also the year round norm.

Find me at these shows this month for all my latest art & some Halloween treats (seriously, I made up little tiny pumpkins loaded with candy, balloons, dirty teacup pins & creepy confetti – so come get them!) Be sure to follow me on Instagram & Facebook for all the latest show updates!

FIRST FRIDAY October 5th outside of Revolver Records on 2nd st & Roosevelt from 6pm-11pm in Phoenix, AZ

2ND FRIDAY NIGHT OUT October 12th from 6pm-9:30pm on Main st. between MacDonald & Robson in Mesa, AZ
