  • Jorge de Rojas: A Wonderful Life of Halloween
    Jul 23 2024
    Meet paper mâché artist, Jorge de Rojas of HohoHalloween. Halloween has captivated Jorge since childhood and was a key influence in helping him adapt to his new country. His career journey has taken him from make-up and costuming, through a detour in nursing, and then back to art due to a fateful life event. The common thread in Jorge’s diverse career is the desire to make people smile. His world includes everything from devilish ornaments to mischievous goblins. His inspirations include 1930s cartoons and his vintage Halloween collection, especially the die cuts. Collectors cannot get enough of his one-of-a-kind creations and reproductions by ESC and Company help expand his reach. This episode is filled with Jorge’s light hearted storytelling, his art show adventures, and his vision for a Halloween world. “Halloween is where dreams of childhood and past memories come to life. It culminates with the smile I see on people's faces when they connect with my work. That's the happiest and the most satisfied that I feel” - Jorge de Rojas Mentions All Hallow’s Art Fest (Petaluma, CA):https://www.halloweenfolkartsociety.com/about-the-show-1Bewitching Peddlers of Halloween: http://www.bewitchingpeddlersofhalloween.comESC and Company reproductions of Jorge’s work: https://escandcompany.com/collections/jorge-de-rojasOld Ghosts Odditorium (was in FL, now online): https://www.oldghostsfl.comOver the Garden Wall, Episode Two: https://www.rottentomatoes.com/tv/over_the_garden_wall_2014_2/s01/e02Wicked Bread Company (Plantation, FL): https://www.wickedbread.com Visit Jorge on social media Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/hohohalloweenbyjorgederojasFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/HohohalloweenbyJorgedeRojas

  • Jana Seven: Stories Drive the Dolls
    Jun 30 2024
    Jana Seven's journey into doll-making is a captivating tale of passion and creative drive. From her early childhood days spent doodling on office paper to her illustrious career as a children's book illustrator, Jana's art has always been a part of her life. The transition from illustration to crafting one-of-a-kind Rag and Bone Dolls stemmed from a burning desire to create something tangible and to exercise bringing the sweet beings that live inside her head to life. Jana uses the rawest materials, like twine, sticks, clay, wood, and antique fabric to involve a feeling of timelessness. Jana finds inspiration in eerie places, like an abandoned subway, ghost towns, and seaside cemeteries. However, her intent is to never scare anyone. All of her dolls have loving souls and driven by their stories. Other inspirations include folk music, odd stories from history, and musing on mortality.

  • Stacey Bear: Spinning History into Keepsakes
    Jun 24 2024

    Stacey Bear, a talented artist and antiques dealer, traces her creative roots back to making dollhouse miniatures as a child. She still has a fondness for creating treasures in a small scale. Her spun cotton ornaments and dolls are highly sought out by collectors.

    Her work is a fusion of historical techniques and her own innovations. Stacey started collecting cotton ornaments and wanted to learn how to make them herself. There was no internet or instructional book at the time so she experimented and figured it out.

    Her creations are born inside her 1812 farmhouse surrounded by beautiful antiques in Pennsylvania. Stacey’s studio is stuffed with stunning antique fabric, tinsel, old buttons, and trims. Sometimes Stacey will have an idea for something to make, but other times, an amazing piece of fabric will speak for itself.
