Lady Nin's Art Festival is now the exclusive online store for Justin Hillgrove's Imps and Monsters!!!




Lady Nin's Art Festival is now the exclusive online store for Justin Hillgrove's wonderful Imp and Monsters prints and t-shirts.

Justin Hillgrove grew up in Snohomish, WA and has been enjoying artistic expression since he was old enough to color on the walls. He took the Graphic Design and Illustration Program at Seattle Central Community College and has since enjoyed many years of freelance illustration and design, working on everything from collectible card games to bobble heads.


Justin started and continues his “Imps and Monsters” oil painting frenzy as a creative outlet, painting whatever his mood demands. There are too many influences and sources of inspiration to list them all, but most notable among them are Justin’s wife and kids, friends and family, and great artists like Nathan Jurevicius, Tim Burton, and Gary Baseman.

Susan Miles of Maple Hill Goat Milk Soap Joins Lady Nin's Art Festival

Meet Susan Miles of Maple Hill Goat Milk Soap

Hi! I'm Susan Miles. I live in Freeland Washington, on the south end of Whidbey Island, with my husband, Steve, and our two great little boys. We love the relaxed, rural lifestyle of our beautiful island - and being so close to the water at all times. Whidbey Island's strong community spirit is an important part of our lives.

We currently have four dogs (new border collie puppy,) an old cat, and now eight Alpine dairy goats. We originally bought dairy goats as a way to make our own goat cheese. It didn't take long to have more milk and cheese than we can drink, eat and give away.

I started making goat-milk soap as a way to help my friends and family who suffer from eczema and dry skin. With my chemistry background, I was drawn to soapmaking. When I learned that I could make a natural, moisturizing soap with my extra goat milk (which helps to make skin HEALTHY,) I knew I was meant to make it and share it.

The very first Maple Hill goat-milk soap was "unscented oatmeal." My friend's daughter used it, and she said it was the ONLY soap that has ever helped minimize the blemishes on her face. Since then, many people have shared their similarly-great experiences.

I had another customer come up to me at the Greenbank Farmer's Market . She had red, peeling, irritated, almost-raw hands. She bought one of my soaps, and a month later after only using my soap, she came back: Her hands had healed so much!

I will always carry an unscented soap for those who want it. I also have many all-natural soaps. For others without sensitivities, I have many wonderfully-fragrant soaps which will surely delight you!

I want you to experience how great your skin can really feel with my special goat-milk soap!
