falling leaf

cozy days

fall parade

Living in New England, there is one thing that no other place has, and that is the colors of the fall. Talk about a painters palette. A lot of my pieces are inspired by the fall and their colors. I am at my most creative at this time of year also.

veterans day



I did this piece in honor of the vets. The nail represents the death, and the poppy represents the courage.

Happiness


I did this piece about happiness.

stickers stickers and more stickers

so check it out. I decided to make some stickers for the holidays. You can even choose your size, add text and order as many as you like there are no minimums. All stickers are durable vinyl and printed with the highest quality printing so they are sure to last.

No more of licking envelopes and writing in your self addressed envelope. Just stick the sticker on the front with your return address.

Keep checking as I am making many many more. Just cutumn them anyway you want. Here are a few of what I mean.



so check them all out.

stores galore

OK folks,

so here I am still working the blog thing. I found a site that I really like Buy my art

Its a simple program, unlike alot I tried.

I am still a member of imagekind, which I will continue (can never enough out there).

As for my zazzle store, I think I will continue promoting that.

for those who don't know about zazzle, it actually takes your designs and put them on products. I would encourage all artists to try it. It helps.

Ive sold a few items already that I am proud of.

So here is the question I have for myself, do I use designs that are specifically for greeting cards on mybubble site?

I guess I will have to ask.

anyway, check out the right hand side of my blog. Its pretty cool, isn't it?

little birthday card

Well, Im venturing out into the online market. I, like everyone else, is trying to make a buck here or there. I decided that since I am known to be creative, that I will try my attempt to make greeting cards.

I know, what an idea. Its probably going to cost me tons of hours, but hopefully will pay off.

now, the thing that i have to do, is look for a POD (print on demand) that is reasonable.

I tried zazzle, though they are expensive. To buy a 4 buck card, it cost like 6 bucks to get it shipped...lol

then there is the cafe press. They are the oldest of the two, but again, the artist really doesnt make much.

then I found greetingcard universe. the cards are really priced just write, but it takes like 4 days to get the darn thing approved. Its tough if your just starting out.

So Ill just keep posting the designs with the hope that ill find a POD. Just keep on the lookout.

here is a piece that i worked on for a birthday card. I focused on 'growing' one year older. I hope you like it. What do you think?

first blog post

wow, my first art blog. Here we go. Lets get this party started. blah blah blah.
