Introduction

Now that we have your attention.

The Leaping Yorkie Collective is a new initiative by a team of long-time artists and writers. We are an egalitarian and democratic circle with no single leader or owner.

Our goal is to use the internet for promotion, networking, and to encourage ourselves to produce by taking advantage of the ready-made mediums that are our blogs, social networking pages and our established website, offering unique pieces of art.

In our pages you will find spin-off short stories from the novels we have written, self-contained short stories, galleries of our visual art, comics, and more.

Soon we intend to expand into self-published print material, including hand-made books. We also plan to expand in the near future into the following:

-Folk Art
-Comics written in the medium of Irish
-Surrealism
-Animation
-Tiki
-Celtic Mythology
-Constructivist Design
-Plushies
-Volcanoes and John Frum
-Chess Sets
-Murals
-Iconoclastic Subversion
-Sculpture
-Figures/Toys
-Miniatures
-Spongeware
-Collage

It makes us tired just writing that list! It might be awhile before everything appears, but we intend to work hard at it until we have completed our goals.

Hopefully someone watching this blog will find some meaning in our works, or at least be entertained by our antics.
