Handmade Strong Scented Wax Melts | Resin Fluid Art | Fluid Art | Resin Decor | Resin Products | Digital Art | Mixed Media Artist | Author of Short Stories
I have been a digital artist for over 25 years. Throughout the years, I’ve been teaching myself animation and experimenting with editing and sound effects.
To practice, I’ve been creating art videos, to give myself practice and experience. I do not do this in hopes of becoming a rich artist, I do this for myself (mostly), and to showcase my other artistic talent aside from being a wax artist and a fragrance creator.
This was created back in 2023, however, the actual artwork was created around 2019. One of the art movements I work in is glitch, datamoshing, and databending artwork. I’ve never experimented with glitch, datamoshing, and databending in an art video much before, and I was really happy with this came out. This was the third art video I created with audio in it.
You can definitely tell that audio was not a strong point at this time, still really isn’t but I’m working on getting better.
I definitely want to find the original artwork and create a better piece to see how far I’ve come since teaching myself animation, audio, and video editing.

These videos were created to get some practice with animation and I used Elon Musk as the subject in response to the AI issue on Twitter in 2023.

I had a hysterectomy in 2023 and I had a long recovery because it's wasn't a typical hysterectomy - just a lot of health issues, that required longer recovery time. So while I was bedridden for two months, I was teaching myself animation and audio. This was actually my first attempt. As you can see, it's very bad, haha.

The Art Collective was an all art based blog that I used to run and write for. I interviewed artists on a regular basis and decided to start creating marketing videos.
Whenever I have spare time, which isn't often, I make art videos to get more practice in. I have plenty of videos that I have created, and will make more posts soon!
BEST SELLER: Krampus Greetings I haven't written an article in sometime; I have been busy with work, getting stuff ready for the launch of my website in March, and getting sick fairly often! I wanted to write about one of my best sellers since the Magpie Designs days before it was introduced to the Prismatic Skies website . Krampus Greetings ! I have always had an odd fascination about this whole Krampus lore. I'm not German, so it's not something that I grew up with. I grew up having German friends and I don't remember whose house it was and how exactly I came across an image, but it was at a friend's house during Christmas time and I legit thought they had Satan mixed in with all this Catholic stuff and Christmas galore. I have no problem with Satan, Satanists, and Satanism, BTW. I'm all for it. Whatever floats your nads. From that moment on though, about the age of maybe 10 or 11 years old, I was sold on the dude...without...
NEW MAGPIE TREASURES CANDLES HAVE BEEN CREATED It has been a few months since I have created a new Magpie Treasures Candle , and I thought it would be a perfect opportunity to showcase the new custom VMT fragrance blend for, " Goddess Lakshmi ."
The Turquoise & Orange Resin Ghost Lamps Hey Everyone!!! Vanessa here! Just wanted to tell you a little bit about the resin ghost lamps that I am making. Started these today. Never made them before. They're super cute so far, and I am hoping, and thinking they will be, these come out great. The Resin Ghost Lamps I didn't want to do traditional colors completely, but I also really wanted to do orange, because ghosts are typically done in white, clear, and silver. I am planning on doing a bunch of different colors for more resin ghost lamps. I used Let's Resin turquoise color, and it's more on the green side of turquoise, rather than the balanced green & blue that turquoise typically is. I really like it as of now, but I am curious how it will cure. I'm coming up with some ideas for other ghost lamps that I want to do. I want to play around with it. Let's Resin Orange & Turquoise Alcohol Inks The ghosts are fairly small. Maybe t...

The Girl's Not Grey Anatomical Heart Shaped Wax Melts Creative Process Video I have made a quick video to show you folks part of the creative process that I go through in creating wax melts. It's not the best video...it's quite frankly my very first video that I have made and edited. I have a lot to learn but I think I did rather well for it being my first time. I don't want to give too much away of how I create everything mainly because the fragrances that I have are my own custom made blends and I use a variety of different manufacturers, and have worked too hard to share that side of my creative process, but I'm open to showing more when the time comes. Just certain things will not be shared. What Does The Girl's Not Grey Wax Melts Smell Like? Well, the scent notes are some things that I have never worked with before and was a bit hesitant at first because of what I wanted to mix them with. I'm the type to think of something random and then I just g...
Vanessa Theodore | Prismatic Skies Update for August 5, 2024 Been super busy lately but I do have some updates for everyone!!! I have been creating tirelessly for the releases coming out for Halloween 2024. I will have some new blends coming out for the September 1, 2024 release of the Etsy shop, but a lot of my creations have been geared towards the Halloween release. I do have some new oils for the Christmas and Chanukah holidays. I am also bringing back some of my, "winter," Best Sellers. So what's been going on? HALLOWEEN GIFTSET BOX #1 : The Texas Chainsaw Massacre is a new blend that I created that will be coming out Halloween 2024. It will first be released as a LIMITED EDITION SPECIAL GIFTSET BOX . The wax melt itself is considered to be a mini wax melt loaf because of its size. It is in the shape of Texas. Measurements will be available on the Etsy listing. What’s in The Texas Chainsaw Massacre Giftset Box : The Texas Chainsaw M...
MAGPIE TREASURES CANDLE: Lemon Scented Candle In Vintage Hobnail Milk Glass Candy Bowl w/Lid I have been making Magpie Treasures Candles since December 2020. Magpie Treasures Candles are handmade candles that I have created in (typically) vintage, rare, hard-to-find (not always - and they're usually more expensive) glassware. The glassware are typically mugs, cups, bowls, compotes, candy bowls, and the like. The candles are made from a soy and paraffin wax blend and the fragrances are of my own creation/custom blend fragrances. I do not remember where I got this beautiful piece from, I think I bought it at a Savers here in New Hampshire . I wasn't always the greatest at making candles , but through A LOT of trial and error over the years, I have definitely gotten waaaaaaay better and the pieces have become much more beautiful, along with the fun treasures inside the candle . This beautiful candle was made in a fresh lemon scent that was made with fragranc...
A.F.I. " Girl's Not Grey " Music Video THE FIRST OFFICIAL WAX MELT OF PRISMATIC SKIES!!!! The first official wax melt for Prismatic Skies is called, " Girl's Not Grey ." It is a dedication melt to the band, A.F.I. (A Fire Inside). Check out the music video and song above!!! Some of you may be aware that I have made TONS of dedication / inspired by wax melts when Magpie Designs was in business, before having to shut it down due to health reasons. So I wanted to start Prismatic Skies off that way, and thought what a perfect way to pay homage to my favorite A.F.I. song ! Girl's Not Grey Anatomical Heart Shaped Wax Melt The, " Girl's Not Grey ," wax melt is made from soy and paraffin wax blend and is decorated with candle dye, mica powder, and glitter. I saw the molds at a craft store when they had their Halloween decorations out and I just about lost my shit because it's an awesome mold, and the hearts are about the size of my han...
THE MINERVA ARCHIVES The Minerva Archives is a section in the Prismatic Skies Blog that houses & archives news that was previously published on the Prismatic Skies website , and moved here for archival purposes as well as to make justifiable room in the website’s news section, What’s Going On , for more recent news and happenings over at Prismatic Skies .
The Blogger / Blogspot QR Code Video w/Audio Not only do I get creative with my wax melts, resin products, resin decor, resin art, and fluid art, I also get creative with the ways that I promote my business and my art . I like to create promotional animation videos , and I have been getting extra creative adding audio to my videos. I taught myself animation, video editing, and audio enhancements in the beginning of the year (2023) while I was home on short term disability recovering from surgery and health complications that followed. I needed some sort of creative outlet to be able to cope with not having Magpie Designs anymore, and not really being able to move. So I started to dabble with animation. I still have a lot to learn but I am quite proud of myself in what I have learned and what I have learned being able to apply it to my artwork and to now, to my small business, Prismatic Skies . What do you guys think? Leave me a comment in the comments se...
