Buffy Naillon, Artist & Author Contemporary visual artist (Pop art, Naive Art).Lover of novels, coloring books & Wonder Woman & Bat Buffy also loves travel, food culture and fairy tales.

First, the Serious-Sounding Bio…

Buffy Naillon has worked in the media industry since 1999, contributing to "USA Today Travel," "The Seattle PI," "Chron," and Germany's "Der Spiegel" magazine. She also served a stint in radio for NPR News 91 and has worked as a filmmaker and videographer on projects like "The Biggest Loser" and "Sergeant Paine." She studied Theater at New York University, German

at the University of the Saarland and graduated with a bachelor's degree in German Literature from Boise State University. Now for the Fun Stuff...

Buffy got her geek cred by getting her master's degree in Educational Technology at Boise State. This was only so she would have an excuse to create mobile apps and video games to play with when she's not writing books or painting pictures or hanging out in coffee shops with friends or with her sketchbooks. Fortunately, for those who love serious games and mobile apps, she's not very good at making them, so she sticks mostly to writing and painting. Aside from a love of sketchbooks, colored pencils and even more coffee, Buffy loves looking at tiny houses on Pinterest and fantasizing about building her own. But given that she has no skills in this area, the house would be as as sturdy as the witch's candy house in Hansel and Gretel and not quite as tasty. Which explains why these three themes often provide the ingredients for her books, her freelance writing and her paintings.

While my dad was still alive, we used to get them every year for Christmas. I miss those books, though not as much as I miss my dad.

Best thing EVER!!!

Best thing EVER!!!

My mother and I had braved the mall (on a Saturday in December of all days) in hopes of capturing a picture of my 8 month old son, Kiptyn "meeting" Santa. We stood in line for over 30 minutes waiting for our turn. Of course, 5 mins before our turn to meet Santa, Kiptyn fell asleep!! Part of me thought we should just get out of line & avoid wasting anyone else's time that busy Saturday, but as we went to leave Santa gestured us over. I handed Kiptyn to my Mom & grabbed my camera. I was escorted outside of the fenced area in order to snap my own shots. What happened next will be one of my all time favorite memories of Christmas... Santa grabbed his book & slowly laid back into his oversized chair. He then silently motioned for my Mom to lay Kiptyn on his stomach. Kiptyn stirred for a moment and I thought he'd wake for sure. Santa hushed him & Kiptyn's little arms fell into such a peaceful position. After we finished taking pictures we heard a round of applause from the crowd that had gathered around below & above in the rotunda. I just wish this jolly ol' man could know how truly special he is. I can honestly say that I believe in Santa and the magic of the holiday season again. I'd just like for everyone to see how special the Santa at the Boise Towne Square mall really is. Happy Holidays to all!
