Fern and Foil by Crystal McDowell

Hi! Fern and Foil is the studio name for Crystal McDowell, a locally based artist who loves nature, fantasy, and whimsy and seeks to combine these elements in my work. She has been influenced by anime, video game art, and fantasy art and strives to take that inspiration and showcase it in her own original art. While she primarily illustrates for prints she also does comics, zines, and art books that can show case her unique voice and style. She also has been branching into wearable art such as pins and earrings, that are handcraft herself without outside manufacturing. Crystal wants to be that whimsical oasis that can provide a momentary calm and reflection for those who enjoy her art and stories. She wants to contribute that positive experience to the convention through her original artwork inspired by the beauty of nature, anime, fantasy, and others!
