SchnauberArt
Artist: Danielle Schnauber
Illustrations, Original Art
About: HEY! Do you wanna hear about a strange person? Ok, well Danielle Schnauber is pretty strange. She has a collection of dead things which include a jar of teeth, skulls and antlers. Rochester is her hometown, but her Mother is from the state of Wyoming, where antelope outnumber people. This may help explain Schnaubers's love of nature and animals?
Her art as of late has mainly been taking old abandoned prints/art that are no longer loved and adding in strange creatures to give them new life. Along with "repaintings" SchnauberArt has original paintings, drawings and sculptures as well as the occasional pet portrait. So if you enjoy strange creatures, or even just really love your own furry friends, SchnauberArt may have something for you.
