About Maiden Fair
Hi there! I'm Maiden Fair (or Lara or Maid if ya nasty). I'm a 34 year-old artist newly relocated to South Bend, Indiana in the US (EST). My husband (Jeremy) and youngest step-kid (Rhiann) moved with me here August 2020 to help my mother care for my father with Parkinsons.
I specialize in digital and traditional design and illustration, fiber arts, and music. I also play World of Warcraft like it's my second job.
I have two fat cats, Mao Mao and Demeter, have recorded 3 studio albums with my comedy music group Better Than Nun, inked and colored a long running (now defunct) web-comic, and knitted Jer a pair of gloves he particularly enjoyed until he lost them.
I also believe Black Lives Matter, Trans Rights are Human Rights, and Science above Superstition.
