Something Wicked LA is a combination of my art, be it wearable or for the home! I've been making custom Hex Hoods™️ and home pieces for a while. I decided it was time to rebrand my Etsy and continue from there, art has no boundaries and it's literally the most therapeutic and relaxing activity I can give myself that others will benefit from.
A little more about me: I was born and raised in Socal, I am a biracial Hispanic, Latino, and proud member of the LGBTQIA Community! I started doing makeup wigs, hair and SFX over 15 years ago and have been steady at it since. I have been putting together elaborate and creative costumes, accessories and props for events or conventions practically my whole life! I started designing practical hoods to save folks from the sun for Wasteland Weekend back in 2017 and after getting commissioned for over 10 just weeks prior to the event, I figured I needed to make a business out of it in addition to the many other entrepreneur adventures I get to experience! My hoods were featured in a fashion show and will now be sold at Cosmoe Glamsquad on Melrose in LA this Summer just in time for Burning Man and Wasteland Weekend. My bones are ethically sourced and I often find moss and mulch on walks or hikes to give each piece a bit of geographical touches. I still dress up at conventions as cosplay is a passionate hobby of mine! I cannot wait to start designing new accessories and costumes pieces to complete folk's outfits in the near future!
