Art Exhibition – Infomaniac Bitches Got Talent
Welcome to our art exhibition (with complimentary wine and cheese and crudités) featuring the works of twelve talented Infomaniac Bitches.
Let's get started. And remember that some images can be enlarged by clicking.
MISS SCARLET…
"I just love calligraphy... there is something quite sublime about watching fresh ink flowing from a pointed nib across virgin snow white paper.... and then having a bit of a flounce and a flourish."
Bitches: Scarlet’s calligraphy services are available simply by CLICKING HERE. After perusing her gallery, you’ll want to order something special!
WALLY…
"When I am not busy Cooking-
and Canning-
Building Furniture-
Or Covering a Floor or Wall with Strange Objects-
I enjoy to smear Paint on a Canvas"...
MISTRESS MADDIE…
"Contrary to popular belief the Mistress has more more talents then making a coke bottle disappear down my throat, pleasing the Lad, and downing gins, and well.....we'll leave the rest go. The first three pictures are some examples of my visual styling work from my day job. Everything from windows, to mannequins, to special shop designs I love working on it all. I have also recently gotten back into interior design freelancing with two jobs already lined up."
"Another of my talents was back in my drag days!!!! Many don't think of it as a talent, but the hair, make-up, and wardrobe has always brought me lots of joy, not to mention the shows! The transformation always was neat to watch. And of course the talent of boys also overlaps into this as well. I have since resigned from drag after 18 years, except for the occasional appearance."
BOXER...
"This is my shell gazing ball, made with a 10” diameter Styrofoam ball. The drab concrete pedestal that held the old gazing ball was painted a very bright turquoise (think Miami Vice.) It took 8 hours, 40 mini glue sticks and did not make a dent in the pile of shells I STILL have after nearly five years. These are shells that I bought online after a few drinkees and didn’t realize just how many shells are in a pound. I think it’s very cheery and is now occupying a previous dark corner in my yard."
KEVIN/KDNA (The Lisp)…
"Madonna has always been a source of inspiration for me. I've done several of these digital portraits, based on popular iconic images of La Reine."
MS. FIRST NATIONS...
"It's collage madness here at Rancho FirstNations! I covered one wall of my dining room in old sheet music that I tore and applied using the age and the music as shades of color. The framed thing is another collage I done did using handlaid paper, old leaves, a potato, tempera, coffee, cornstarch and hide glue."
TOPHER...
"These are Christmas stockings I needle-pointed for two of my nieces and one for a nephew. The first (with the dog) is from a kit I purchased. The stocking with the sport figures on it was one that I created, painted on canvas, stitched and sewed until the wee hours of the holiday's eve. This depicts the "3 Wisemen" as a Baseball, Football and Basketball player on the field pointing to the Christmas star. The knots in the background are meant to represent people in the stands and one of them (and I won't tell you where this person is) is giving head to a peanut vendor. The Choir Angel is one I also created. The picture isn't detailed enough, but there are tiny teensy weensy lil seed pearlettes sewn with loving care, on the sleeves."
MISS ROSES...
"Proof of my talent for drinking coffee and wafting around in the pink fluffy dressing gown. Both of which I am champion at. Shame it's not a skill which leads to economic remuneration, but hey ho. Can't have everything. Unfortunately."
MITZI...
"Flange Dynasty Vase: I made this pot with my own fair hands when I was just a nipper at junior school. The lid was inspired by something I saw poking out of an elderly gentleman's rain-mac whilst playing in the park, all the other children screamed and ran away, I stayed and gave him marks out of ten."
"Cross-stitch pictures: I made these 12 years ago, when I gave up smoking, I found it very difficult coping with the withdrawal symptoms and I needed to do something with my hands, it took the tension away but I gained 2 stone sat on my arse, sewing and eating boiled sweets all day long."
PRINCESS…
"The first photo is an old one from the "Alice in Wonderland" production which were cast shots that appeared in the programme. I made many of the costumes pictured last year for the show in December. If anyone missed the course of their production, they are welcome to visit “The Palais” and troll though the archives."
"The second one (below) is of my current work. They are of the boy and girl poppy chorus costumes for the "Wizard of Oz" which goes on in August. They were on display in the foyer of the auditorium on audition night as a preview.
I’m flat out daily with getting the costumes made. All six of the guy costumes are completed and I have six of the twenty four girl poppy outfits done which means I’m quarter the way through! YaY!"
Bitches: And that’s not ALL from the golden fingers of Princess! Visit his Stitch’n Steve blog to see his…
Handbags and totes…
Quilts…
And scarves…
CHICKORY (Ande)...
"I used to draw these raunchy cartoons back in college. I'm all tame now."
Bitches: To see more of Chickory’s folk art, drawings, paintings and illustrations, click here. And be sure to visit her Stuff You Can Buy page and her Etsy Shop.
THOM…
Bitches: Mistress MJ has taken the liberty of writing Thom’s blurb as he isn’t one to “blow his own horn” and, in my opinion he is an incredibly gifted man as you’ll find out for yourself by listening here…
Thom’s music induces a state of rapture in Mistress MJ and I’ve enjoyed hours of listening pleasure from his CD. You can experience that same elation by purchasing a CD directly from Thom. It’s cheaper than drugs and gets you just as high! Click here for his email address.
You can also purchase a download-only compilation of Thom’s music here.
And did I mention Thom’s also an accomplished photographer?
See more of Thom’s creative output on his Flickr page and visit his online shop to purchase a beautiful print.
We hope you’ll stay and mingle with our artistes.
We encourage you to become a patron of the arts and support those Bitches who market their works.
And don’t you agree that Infomaniac Bitches Got Talent?

Coming This Sunday…
Prepare to be dazzled by our Infomaniac Bitches Got Talent art exhibition on Sunday, May 6th.
Twelve Infomaniac Bitches will have their creative talents on display for your viewing pleasure.
Coincidentally(?) there are twelve basic hues in the colour wheel.
You’ll see everything from calligraphy to canned goods!
And from handbags to gladrags!
Some of our artisans sell their creations so be sure to support your fellow Infomaniac Bitches.
Speaking of which, this reminds me of a book I’d like to mention:
If you’re an artsy individual who dreams of marketing your creations, try reading The Handmade Marketplace by Kari Chapin. It’s full of good tips on how to sell your crafts locally, globally and online.
And for those of you who haven’t yet picked up a paintbrush or a glue gun, we hope that what you see on Sunday will inspire you to get artsy!

Infomaniac Bitches Got Talent
It has come to Mistress MJ’s attention that many of you are hiding your light under a bushel.
Some of you have recorded CDs; some take photographs; others make art with found objects; and some of you, like Princess, are handy with a needle and thread…
[via]
A few of you glue macaroni onto paper plates and call it “pasta art” but who are we to judge?
Yes, Infomaniac Bitches got talent!
Isn’t it time you showed us your creations?
Here’s what we’ll do…
Send a photograph of one or two of your creations to Mistress MJ (email address is in my Blogger Profile.)
Include a description of your creations.
If you sell your artistic endeavours or display them online, be sure to include a link to any online art store you might have such as Etsy or eBay, your own personal website, etc.
After all, it’s never too early to plan for the “C” word!
DEADLINE: April 30, 2012.
We’ll showcase your submissions in one big artsy fartsy exhibition in May.
UPDATE: To clarify what constitutes “creations,” we’re not limiting this to the visual arts. Published authors, for example, are also invited to submit a link to their books.
