Dame Darcy is a renaissance woman. The Idaho-born artist has crafted a broad and powerful body of work. She’s an illustrator and fine artist, a musician, dollmaker and designer. Her work has been exhibited in galleries around the world. In 2006, Penguin released a new edition of Jane Eyre heavily illustrated by her. She has an etsy store where she sells not just prints and original art, but dolls and other handcrafted work. She’s collaborated with Alan Moore and contributed to the Tori Amos comics...
Oh, how I love Dame Darcy. I had never seen anything like Meat Cake when I discovered it back in '98 or so, and it kind of blew my mind. Actually, I haven't seen anything quite like it since. This woman is fucking exceptional.
