About
Welcome to The Crone's Nest Studio! We - Marana and Elyn - are the two resident artists; doing what we love, and loving what we do!
Marana's Metal Madness creations are inspired by using recycled copper and other recycled metal and materials. Marana's designs are mounted on a variety of wood. Her art pieces reflect the themes of Gabriola: whales, seals, fish, herons, owls and more.
Elyn creates Dragons of many varieties! Wonderful soft-sculpture creatures with distinct and comical personalities are all waiting to be adopted by a special Human. You will also want to check out her beautifully handcrafted walking sticks.
