SEE THE MISCHIEF

Louisiana Artist Connie Born, artfully captures the spirit of Louisiana in her fun and exciting creations. Mischief Creations are handcrafted of carefully selected fabrics and leathers, then topped off with fanciful hair. 2015 & 2016 creations are especially notable fashioned from exquisite embossed Italian Lambskin hides and Turkish \"hair on\" leathers. Born\'s concept is to express the magical culture and spirit of Louisiana in every face with a big \"Throw Me Something Mister\" button collage mouth. Each creation is given a unique personality by the buttons and other components that make up it\'s face, giving each one a one of a kind identity. Each creation represents the richly diverse and fascinating culture that is alive in Louisiana. Dubbed the Krewe of MisChief by Born these are the faces and the costumes that you would see when attending Mardi Gras in New Orleans.

Born\'s whimsical creations old and new follow her original 1997 concept. The use of colorful beads lends itself to tradition that is so uniquely Mardi Gras in Louisiana. Mardi Gras MisChief Creations are signed and dated by the artist. Custom made creations are available for any occasion or event. Born\'s motto is \"if you can imagine it, I can create it\". New additions to Born\'s Krewe of MisChief are created every day in her Gallery and Studio in the MarketPlace at 1808 Front Street, Art Gallery & Tourist Attraction in Slidell. Visit the MisChief Gallery to see the new creations currently in process and to start your collection today.

In the New Orleans area Born\'s creations will forever be remembered as touted by Andre\' Trevigne, New Orleans Queen of Common Sense & No. 1 talk radio personality, described in her own unique \"Nawllins\' way: \"Now these ain\'t ya mama\'s Barbie Dolls. These are what Barbie would look like after spending a week on Bourbon Street!\"

From The Artist:

10 years have passed since losing the Mardi Gras Mischief gallery to Hurricane Katrina. During that time, only a handful of Mischief Creations have been made. Everything has a time and place and the time has finally arrived for me to once again create my whimsical Mischief Creations. 2015 is a good year to begin anew. Who knows where the new quest will lead. but be assured it will be whimsical, witty, fun filled and sure to bring smiles. Creations will be limited in number and each one original, dated, and signed. They will emerge as inspiration finds its way to my heart. \"Let the Mischief begin again!\"
