"Smudge Signals" Painting, Sunday ACEO auction, + ramble

 Hellooo!

Today I have a new painting (yeah, again!), and also a ramble about de-cluttering, as well as the preview for this Sunday's ACEO auction!

So, firstly, a new painting- "Smudge Signals"- yes, this is another painting based of a previous ACEO I drew (of the same title bc I am lazy).  This rendition is very brightly colored; the initial drawing was much more somber, so I wanted to give her some rainbow.  


She is an original acrylic painting, 8.5" x 11" on sheet canvas, unframed but very easy to do so!  She is currently available for purchase on eBay- click HERE (or her picture above) to view the listing and more details about the painting.  

I suppose I will just show the other art before I begin my ramble- this is the preview of the Sunday morning auction on eBay:


This is "Honey Fae"- an original ACEO illustration (pen and ink) that will be available to bid on starting this Sunday (Feb 27).  
I had a TON of fun drawing all the teeny flowers, and then I was very careful in choosing a color pallet, as sometimes with so may flowers I want to use EVERY single color...which can often turn into a mess. But I am just very happy with how pretty and delicate she is.

Okay, now a ramble:
So, I am going through a de-clutter season in my home and studio- my home is TINY and after being inside for winter, I get a little nit-picky and want to get rid of some things. Generally, I de-clutter twice a year- once in the late summer, and once after winter (and I just want winter to be over, so I have begun early this year!).  This year, I am realizing I have an amount of toy/doll purging to get to (I collect toys, I do not have kids, I don't like to share my toys lol!)  So this leads to selling. 

So, now, do I look into a "Sell your random stuff" app or do I just list these things on my eBay account?  Currently, I am still in the process of weighing pros and cons of each. I suppose this is a random ramble to give a heads up in case I do begin selling "random stuff" through eBay with all my art. I honestly don't love that idea other than- it is convenient, familiar, and I get free listings. I don;t really want to because I use it as my art selling site and I don't want to look all messy and unprofessional. 

*sigh* I don't know. I'm sure I will make a decision soon, as I really just want to get this stuff out of my house and into a house that will appreciate whatever it is...And I have a TON of clothes, which I generally just donate, so that is much easier to deal with. Ah, god, and the pair of rollerblades, and some art supplies that are in perfect condition but I will never use because I have not yet... 
OKAY, sorry about that. I am gonna get going for now, thanks for reading!! xoxox HUGS!
xo!

To the Nines "Home" ACEO series - complete!

Image
Well, it's finished! Yaaay!! There are so many little details, and I am really quite happy with how it turned out.  It is more muted in color than the previous To the Nines ("Wishing"), but this was purposeful. I wanted a bit more cohesion in the whole piece, so I chose a color scheme for the entire image this time. Usually i don't plan the colors out, i just pick one or two and then add whatever I want during. But sometimes it is nice to have limits lol! Here is the full image: At any rate, let me explain again my To the Nines series.  It is essentially a set of 9 complete ACEOs that also make up a larger story/image.  I am rather partial to puzzles and things that fit together but are different. Also, it seems to speak to my need to visually organize everything.  "Home" is the second work in the series (You can view the first work "Wishing" HERE ). I have plans to continue this in the future, though at the moment I am a little behind on other th...

 Oopsies, it's been two years... I've been making art that whole time, but keeping up with all the online stuff is just not my forte. I don't even mess with social media anymore- a decision that was made for my mental health, and you know what? RECOMMEND. Anyhow, a quick update- I have hashed out a schedule for updating my "online presence" on a regular basis- once a month I will update my art galleries , my blog, and my web shop with art, prints, news, dolls, whatever I have going on.  Hopefully, I will not fall off again and disappear into the void. Here are some custom dolls I've made (and since sold) in the past two years: These ladies, along with others, will be added to my doll gallery eventually. I am *really* behind with the updates, y'all. I do apologize.  Oh, what else...I have been considering re-opening my etsy shop, I am hesitant, because is it necessary? Another thing to keep tabs on...I'm not sure yet. In the case that I do decide to, ...

Monster High Lagoona Lalaloopsy Doll, ACEO Sunday sneak peek, ++ ramblings

 Uggh, hiii So...currently existing in a haze of frustration of myself. Well, I'd say it's more like a mist. Not too thick, just...annoying. Yes, I am annoyed at being continuously frustrated with myself. Does that make any sense? Who knows. SO, I have FINISHED some dolls! Emily the Strange is complete and pretty much ready to find a new home- I need to draft a listing for her, though I suspect I may run into a weird copyright issue trying to list her on eBay. I've already had issues trying to get her Certificate of Authenticity made up. (ramble happening) Normally, I order out for the doll COAs, as I wanted a nice, smooth, perfect looking card. However, the place I order from is refusing to print up her COA as it goes against their copyright policies...Fine, I will print one up myself, fiiine, ughhh.   Oh, the printer is out of ink. Right-o, I have another cartridge ready to go. Oh, well, it doesn't recognize the black cartridge. Cool, coolcoolcool. So, I am currently ...
