Hot Air Balloons ACEO, Fiji Mermaid circus art, + Art Giveaway reminder!


Good evening!


Well, it has been a slow week, at least art wise, but I have been making pizzas up the wazoo...Ugh, the thought of greasy cheese in this heat makes me a little sick LOL!! At any rate, I do have two new ACEOs to share with you, and a reminder about my Facebook exclusive art giveaway contest...


So...new ACEOs! Yay! The first is a fantasy illustration- "Hot Air" is an original ACEO (2.5" x 3.5") featuring a lovely blond nymph girl, enjoying the rather whimsical skyscape of multicolored hot air balloons. She is up for auction on eBay, with a starting bid of just $5! To see more, just check out the link below her picture:

The other new ACEo is the latest in my Circus & Sideshow series- the "Fiji Mermaid"! This is no regular mermaid art- it's a bit on the creepy side, but I wanted to keep with the vintage circus feel, so...yeah. :) There is a bit of history + info about the Fiji Mermaid in the auction listing- this ACEO is listed at a $5 starting bid. To read more and perhaps even make a bid for this oddity, just visit the link below the picture;

As usual, I have a handful of other auctions up on eBay, including TWO sea turtle themed pieces, each with a portion of the final sale price going to help the Gulf Restoration Network! To see all my listings on one page, just click here!


I have finished up my latest jester- she is Ice Cream themed- though I have yet to scan her in and get prints posted for sale. I will try my very best to get her up ASAP! She's very cute- a black haired harlequin, dreaming of ice cream cones :) Now I am pondering my next jester, and also the next addition to my Dragon Zodiac series (thinking about Taurus)...Also, working on getting more zombie limericks written for the compilation book...I wrote 18 of them last week, and thought with the other 27 plus illustrations that would be sufficient. However, I have since chosen to put a whole bunch more into the compilation book, so...Looks like I have my work cut out for me! Even though they are just silly little rhymes, it is actually rather difficult to make them work just right, and also make them funny (which, in my mind, is the cornerstone of any good limerick). At this point, I am afraid that I will run out of ideas. :( So...I might have to restock my Netflix list with LOTS and LOTS of "research material" aka zombie movies LOL!!


Oh, yes, and allow me to remind you all about my Facebook Exclusive art giveaway contest! The end date is drawing near (it ends Wednesday, July 14th, at midnight EST) so get your comments in now!! To see the details of the contest and make your comment, just click here!
