Yet another cool new artist moves to Asheville. From the Huffington Post:
Trying to make a living as an artist can be a hair-raising situation, but Adrienne Antonson hasn’t let that bug her.Instead, she’s found a niche by sculpting bugs — out of her own hair.She’s pretty good too. So good that Ripley’s just bought six of her “mast-hair-pieces” to display in their museums.It’s a unique niche, but it’s one that Antonson, who recently moved to Asheville, N.C., from Vashon Island, Wa., is happy to have, as it combines two longstanding interests into one bugged-out hairy genre.“When I was young, insects were my favorite thing,” she told HuffPost Weird News. “They captivated me. I am humbled that they are so tiny, but can do so many things we can do — and fly as well.”

Another freaky artist that has moved to Asheville.
Who would buy that kind of art?
She will probably charge 500 dollars for
that gross crap.
Yep. She'll fit right into the downtown scene. Welcome to Asheville.
