Frequently Asked Questions
-
Are these Original Pieces of Art?Yes! Each collage is a creation between God, The Muse, and myself. However, I do not sell the originals for this very reason. They are very personal, yet I can’t imagine I’m the only one who has harbored such dreams, emotions, or longings. For this reason, I share them as that is the purpose of a Muse, to Inspire the life out of anything, and everything. I also don’t sell the originals for practical reasons. Each piece is made with paper and glue, materials that are not archival by nature. Overtime, they will tear, bleed, and decompose. In this regard, they are that much more priceless. They are an invitation to be the embodiment in every moment. To create a piece that can mature with grace, each original is professionally photographed, printed, mounted and sealed in a way that allows its essence to silently standout at dazzle any space it occupies.

What is your Process?All the Muses first came to be from a nudge I couldn’t shake. I’ve been tearing images out of magazines for years. I store most of them in a vintage, baby blue suitcase. The first few times I feel the tap on the shoulder, I may tell her, "Hold her horses, I'm busy." However, the Muse is relentless when it comes to creation. She will wrestle with me until I'm pinned, and I'm at her Mercy - gladly! I have no intention when I sit down to create. I’m not trying to make something, I’m simply curious. I’ll flip through the stack of images and pull out whatever catches my eye. I keep narrowing down the pile, and auditioning pieces until it feels complete. Once it’s done, The Muse will start unveil her story about who she is and what she wants. This is the moment I always fall in love.

Do you have a favorite?No! Each Muse holds a big piece of my heart and has played a significant role in my life, or is about to. If I need a little courage, one will give me a dose of hers. If I feel Angry, one will step up to be my accomplice. If my heart feels bent out of shape, One will wrap around it. If I feel frisky, One will fan my flames. If I feel inspired, One will show up shotgun to Ride or Die with it.

I’m enamored, how do I get a Muse?The Muses are particular, they prefer to meet everyone in person. Yet, don't let distance stop you from becoming aqquainted. You can visit the online Gallery to claim The One that captured your attention. You can also request a private viewing of the whole collection at The Erotic Heart Atelier in Charlotte, NC. Please note... The Muses are not mass produced, doing so would offend them. They highly prefer quality of quantity in every realm they mess around with. Every month, 5 or so Muses are made available in the Gallery, one of each. Once they are sold, they are off the market until the time comes they want to shimmy with someone new. You should also know... Each Muse is ferociously intimate. She's already written and tucked away within her a Love Letter for "The One” who claims Her. She longs to know you, and comes with a note of suggestions on how to engage with Her as a mirror for inspiration and self-reflection. Please Consider... Upon purchase, allow up to two weeks to receive your piece in the mail. If you reside in Charlotte, local delivery or pick-up is available upon request.
