My name is Megan Garvison. I am 27 years old and live in Fort Wayne, IN. I have 2 kids that keep me very busy. I work at Parkview Hospital on the surgical unit. In my free time I have always enjoyed doing crafts and art. I finally decided to try to take it a step further by selling my creations at Fae's Cabinet. Each piece I make is unique and different from one another. I have always liked decorating my house with uncommon and unusual things.

John Gruse

My name is John Gruse, and I've lived and worked in Fort Wayne, Indiana for most of my life. From my various vocations and avocations during that time, I've been professionally trained to paint your house, your car, your portrait, or your nightmares. My artistic style(s) are historically influenced, and I employ them to explore the aspects of human perception that have always been with us. The things that frighten us, mystify us, or give us joy have never changed, and my artwork, hopefully, will awaken some of those feelings in the viewer.

Natalie Baker, Nat Baker Art

Art started for me at a young age. The first time I sculpted I knew I would never do anything else. Bonsai was a fondness in my family since the beginning but like many - we didn't have a green thumb for these trees. I then became inspired during 2012 to take my passion for sculpture and bring it together with the traditional art of bonsai. Essentially bringing this peaceful practice of training and growing mini trees to everyone's home. No training, no trimming and no maintenance for everyone! They represent peace, harmony and balance! A little bit of extra love in every home!

Meaghan, Chimmie Art

I am Chimmie, if you want to know why, you'll have to ask my mom! I am Ohio based artist and the owner of Chimmie Art, which features wonderfully weird and morbidly adorable; fine art, prints and oddities.

Taxidermist by day and Artist all the time, my artwork ranges from detailed watercolor illustrations to weirdly whimsical sculptures. I have always been fascinated by anatomy, botany, and the illustrative side of science. Myths and monsters are also very dear to my heart, especially jackalopes. My artwork often reflects real world imagery, but also marries my loves together creating surrealistic creatures and plant life.

It has only been recently that I've begun applying techniques and mediums from Taxidermy in my work, salvaging and repurposing what I can, creating new items like my Dragon Eye Brooches and Needle Felted Sculptures.

Zee dedicates their time to telling stories and making art that celebrates the gangly, furry, toothy monster inside of all of us.

Using acrylic and oil paints, papers, gemstones, dried leaves and any tactile elements that engage, Ashley Rose seeks to create and explore without boundaries, and integrate all in the pursuit of love and oneness.

Krista, Sally's Stranger Shapes

My name is Krista, and I'm the goblin behind Sally's Stranger Shapes. My mom taught me to crochet almost 20 years ago, and it's branched into all kinds of art - crochet, knit, painting, jewelry making, working with clay. I love it all! My favorite things are texture and mixed medium art. My specialties are clothing items made with scraps of yarn to create odd patterns, creepy but cute stuffed animals, and sassy things that make people laugh. I use my art as a method of coping and self exploration, which includes sexuality, gender identity, and ways to deal with my mental health. Some of it is gorgeous, some of it is adorable, and some of it is outright strange. Embrace the weird.

Dave, Scratch Pad Creations

I’m the owner and creator of Roz Puppets, my puppet company of 26 years. Drawing is another way for me to put my creations out into the world. I enjoy spending time in nature because it serves as the inspiration for my drawings and many of my puppets. As in my mind’s eye, I can see the little creatures running around, scurrying through the underbrush. My biggest inspirations are Brian Froud, Jim Henson, and Maurice Sendak.

Nyte Sky & JRM Creations

We are a small shop established in January 2024. From Fort Wayne Indiana. By day Ashton works at a coffee shop and Jared drives a truck but in our spare time over the last few years we’ve both spent time crafting and learning new things. From fluid art pours to inclusive, inspiring, (sometimes funny or sarcastic) sublimated clothing, beanies, and tote bags. There is nothing better to us that bringing joy and inspiring people to be who they truly are. We try to encompass that through our work. 

We hope you enjoy, 

Ashton & Jared
