I make MONSTERS!

So I make a LOT of Bat & Vampire related art, because that is what I do for my “day job”. (Well really, I sleep most of the day because I am a Kreature of the night, so I actually work during the darkest of the midnight hours!) I am all about HALLOWEEN every day of the year, and have been fortunate to find myself making SPOOKY scary art all year long. I create stuffed animals & dolls for a popular vampire boutique, that keeps me working 24/7 – 365 days a year!  I am also a graphic designer and work primarily within the Vampire community, creating spooky, scary vampire art.
Currently I only do 3 or 4 art shows a year selling my MONSTERS and spooky art, in the Des Moines metro area.

Previously (before 2020) I created and taught a lot of different MONSTER Making classes. All sorts of different fun sewing & craft classes, for kids and also some for adults. I previously also worked as a sewing instructor & have taught painting classes. I love to sew, and make spooky things. Worked for too many years on a computer as a graphic designer, and obviously I have been drawing and painting since before the beginning of time.
: )
If you are in NEED of a MONSTER, I might be able to make what you need…

The above pulls in each of the parents within the artist-discipline taxonomy , which is good, if I want to display them alone without their children.

I need to probably display these like this:

Dance: Ballroom, General, Hip Hop, Jazz.

Design: General, Graphic

Will need to figure out how to return the sub categories (artist-discipline) for each parent individually and then loop through all parents assigned to the CPT (artist) being viewed.

In this section I was able to successfully pull all sub categories that belongs to the 2 parents selected. This could be good if I was trying to show all possible choices under that parent, but what I really need is to pull just the selected ones back.
