WELCOME to WIBBLEY WORLD
A HAVEN for MISFITS, WHERE NOTHING BAD EVER HAPPENS! 

WELL, NOTHING REALLY BAD…

 

This is a collection of my paintings and drawings - portraits of the inhabitants of Wibbley World (in addition to the the occasional guest dropping in for a surprise visit).  You’ll encounter numerous recurring characters, most notably Sparky and his stalker, a giant squid of dubious intent. 

A little bit (tiny) about me:

I live in New Jersey with my husband Chris (check out his blog, The Secret Sun and his book, Our Gods Wear Spandex), three children (well really just two now that Jordan went and grew up and moved out on us - the nerve!) and assorted naughty pets.

I recently started an art blog where I've been posting sketches, old work, experimental work, and of course new work! It has a subscription form so if you're interested you can get emails when I update. Here's the link: The Art of Wibble. I also have one at livejournal which has the same info, but I'm thinking blogspot is a little easier to deal with. If you're on livejournal, please check it out: Wibbley World.

For those of you who were wondering what I look like, here you go:

Me!
