# About me
Lacey is a San Jose artist who paints weird things. She works in a variety of media, oil and acrylic paints being her favorites. She paints primarily on wood surfaces, often utilizing found wood for the unique textures and history they offer. Her subjects are often dreamlike, inhabiting a realm of strange, nostalgic sweetness with undercurrents of darkness and mystery. Each piece is a bit of the middle of a story for the viewer to interpret in their own way. Contrasting cute with creepy, familiar with odd, Lacey sets out to quietly captivate and unnerve her viewers through the underlying tension of her work.Lacey has shown work all over California, as well as Tempe, Arizona; Atlanta, Georgia; Brooklyn, NY; Chaing-Mai, Thailand among other places. She has an ongoing display of work at KALEID Gallery in San Jose where she keeps her studio. Because she loves to paint really big things as well, she occasionally paints murals, sets and backdrops for various theatres and for Great America Theme Park's stage shows and haunted houses. Unable to sit still, she has accumulated a wide array of strange skills. She is a guerrilla knitter, a repository of useless information, a tree climber, a belly dancer, a sculptor, a snorkeler, a former voice actor, a from-scratch baker, a maker of silly clay-mation shorts, a collector of succulents and cacti, graphic designer, and many other unrelated things.

Hey
we haven't seen you over at #LittleBelovedOnes for some time. Why not submit an image or suggest a fav?
Please keep in mind our activity rule of being active at least once in 2 month. If there is something currently keeping you from dA let me know and I can give you more time though.

I have a feeling that rule is going to keep being a problem for me. I'm a very active painter and have a very small amount of time to play online. I'll try my best, but if you would prefer not to have me in the group if I'm not active enough, then I understand. I haven't painted anything featuring children recently but I'll try to post right away next time I do, hopefully it won't be too late for me!

really cool gallery! and quite impressive in which places you've shown you works!! and it's also a really interesting exhibition you're planning, I'd really like to see it when it's opened but unfortunately the way across the ocean is too long and expensive ;(
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Thank you! Yes, the ocean is expensive for a person to cross, I try to send art across instead when I can! I hope you'll consider sending in a submission for the show.
