Here on misswendy.com you will see the character art that I create and exhibit in the Los Angeles area. For many years I've been designing and creating stop-motion puppets, and while they are still basically designed for animating, I now create them with the intention of displaying them as art pieces.
 
All of the puppets are equipped with wire armatures for posing and/or animating. Other materials I generally use are self hardening clay for the heads, super sculpey for smaller details, latex rubber for hands, recycled fabrics, fake fur and dyed feathers for hair and details, fake eyelashes, and acrylic paint for the coloring. I also make parts of the puppets removeable like eyelids and mouths so that I can create multiple expressions. The eyeballs are handmade as well and have small holes in the center so they can be rotated to look in different directions.
 
Professionally I work in the animation industry on game trailers, animated shorts, commercials & features as a CG texture painter. To see my portfolio and reel check out misswendyfx.com
 
My husband, Jarrett DeMartino and I have an art gallery as well, which is also a tattoo studio where he tattoos. Visit Solid Gallery One in Los Angeles.
