  • Maren Owens: Liberated by Halloween

    Maren Owens: Liberated by Halloween
    Aug 30 2025

    Maren Owens of Mimi's ole Nickel creates whimsical Halloween and Christmas characters overflowing with personality. Each sculpture speaks to her during the creative process, letting her know who they need to be. Her characters run the gamut of emotions. They can range from serene to sassy, or perhaps even grumpy. All are beautifully dressed in antiques and carefully chosen found objects. Maren draws inspiration from folklore, the Victorians, Old World Europe, and everyday people.

    After studying art in Chicago, Maren shifted from the traditional gallery world to sculpting holiday characters. Whether it's potion-testing witches, vigilante vampires, or mischievous elves, her creations are layered with meaning, humor, and conversation. Her time working at a makeup counter sharpened her understanding of facial anatomy and even inspired her unconventional sculpting tools.

    "Once I sculpted a face, I just couldn't go back—it's so much fun because the characters start telling me who they want to be." - Maren

  • Season 7 Trailer

    Season 7 Trailer
    Jul 24 2025

    Welcome to Season 7 of the Halloween Art and Travel Podcast! I'm your host, Kristen Stafford, and I'm thrilled to kick off another season of celebrating the artists and collectors who bring Halloween magic to life.

    This year, I'm launching the season a little later than usual, but for a good reason. In this trailer, I'm sharing the behind-the-scenes story of a new project I've been working on with my friend Jorene Lomenzo of Shivers of Delight. It all started with a simple text message... and today, it's officially live.

    We are introducing "The Halloween Art Guide for Spellbound Collectors" (HAG). This guide supports Halloween art collectors with an artist directory, a collecting guide, and a section on Halloween art shows, past, present, and future.

    This season podcast episodes will drop the 13th, 23rd, and 30th, August – October.

    You'll also get a preview of my interview with Maren Owens of Mimi's Ole Nickel, debuting on August 13.
