Frazzled Finch was born of a desire to get all our eggs in one basket, so to speak. There were digital items on Facebook, wreaths in a local shop, and jewelry that we sold at craft fairs. There were paintings stacked everywhere. It was impossible to remember where everything was — much less update the websites often. One day we decided to consolidate….. hence the Frazzled Finch.
The painty fingers behind FF belong to me, Tanya Logan, artist/author/musician. My husband cooks, cleans, and even feeds the finches, so I have lots of time available to create art. It’s like living a dream!

I had a garden full of roses once, and if you know roses you know I had to tend them every day religiously… One year some kind soul wrote me a lovely handwritten note. It said “thank you for brightening your corner of the world…”
I realized then that the beautiful things I’m able to create — whether a rose garden, a violin solo, or a painting– are important to others. We all love beauty. I like to make it, and others like to enjoy it. My heart’s desire is to share small bits of beauty with the rest of the world.
I’m thrilled when someone admires my paintings, and I practically jump in the car with them when they purchase something I’ve made! (Don’t worry…. you’re safe shopping with me online!)
My jewelry, paintings, and other bits share a theme of bold and beautiful. I love to express myself through art. It’s almost like I have to. Art comes from within, and it is yearning and pushing to get out.
One of the most common questions I get asked is: Do you plan?
Nope. I never plan. I just gather my tools and begin. Whatever happens is what was supposed to happen.
I hope you enjoy my work.
