I did a LOT of work this week...
It's good to feel accomplished and slightly closer to 'caught up'...though that term seems to be this fantastical idealistic goal that I will never ever achieve. This is the trouble with having an overflow of imagination. I guess I should not complain...I never experience the feeling of boredom.
Blah blah!! Anyhow, I have THREE new pieces of art tonight!! Two nude ladies (which are censored for this post, but you can see the full versions at their listings) and the latest Zodiac Monster- Scorpio! I have also begun adding to the Dragon Gallery on my website, and I have some fun new things available through my Zazzle shop too!
First, a little nudity! A few pieces with color that I had sketched out last week (I was feeling listless and irritable, so sketching outdoors was very helpful)...The first is "Fancy Free" (I must admit, I do not care for the title, but it just seemed to fit, in some irritating, Lisa Frank kind of way...) She is a big eyed, naked lady lounging in a rainbow...7" x 5" original mixed media illustration on canvas paper...She is up for auction on eBay with a starting bid of $12! To see the uncensored version, more info, and perhaps place a bid to own her, please visit the link below her picture:

The other nude is actually pretty covered up (sorry...don't worry, I've got some more on deck!) but she has some nice cleave...:} You can really tell I was pissy looking at this piece...She is also an original 7" x 5" mixed media illustration on canvas paper. "Smote" is listed for auction on eBay with a $12 starting bid at the link below her picture:

Now...Scorpio. The latest piece in my Zodiac Monster series! I really like how this one turned out- many layers to the mystery that is Scorpio...The original art (3.5" x 5"- mixed media) is up for auction on eBay with a starting bid of $20- you can see the listing by following the link below the picture:

As always, I have a bunch of ACEOs listed (starting at $2 each) as well as some other art goodies- you can see everything I've got running on eBay HERE!
Yes, lots of stuff! Too much stuff! I must confess, I have not been doing a lot of sleeping lately. Whatever, though, because I just don't feel tired. So...I managed to get the Dragon Gallery up and started with a dozen dragon pieces. I have a lot more dragons than I thought I did! At any rate, I would love it if you would take a moment to wander through the website- I realized that some of the thumbnails in the galleries were not clickable when I went live last week...so that is fixed now. Sorry for the derp move. That's what I get for rushing! So...Please visit Darkling Treasures for me!
One last mention of stuff before I get on with my evening (going to get the majority of this nurse mermaid finished up!)...PILLOWS!! Pillows to throw, pillows to decorate, pillows to sleep on! I have pillows (in two sizes) with my art on them available through Zazzle! They look so cool! I want them all!! Okay. Ahem. Calm down. I have most of the zombie images up, and most of the Dragon Square images as well (they lend themselves quite nicely to pillow format, who knew?) I will definitely be designing more of these in the near future, but to see what I've got at the moment, please check out the link below this pillow:
Art Pillows through Zazzle!
Okay...off I go!!
xo!

This week I have some new Zodiac Monsters listed for auction (Virgo + Libra at the moment), a sneak peek at this special mermaid piece I am working on, and I have finally done enough work on my website to be able to show you! What a relief that is :)
Monster time! The two latest installments to my Zodiac Monster series are now up for auction on eBay- Virgo and Libra! These are small 3.5" x 5" cartoon interpretations of the astrological signs. I have taken the mixed media route with this series, and each piece is layered with assorted papers, inks, acrylic paint, and fibers! Bidding for these originals starts at $20 apiece; please do visit the links below the pictures to view the auctions and perhaps place a bid!

Of course, lots of other artworks (prints, ACEOs, originals) are also listed for auction on eBay HERE!
As promised, I have a sneak peek picture of the special mermaid piece I am working on...she is a nurse mermaid! This piece is slated to be auctioned off for donation once it is completed...FYI. More info on that as the piece progresses...but she is very pretty!
Alllllrighty then...I updated my website! Actually, I redid the entire look. I am still very ashamed to admit that it has been nearly a full year since I have touched the site at all, but now...it is mostly how I want it. At the moment, it is still bare bones as far as the gallery is concerned...I have three 'open' galleries with art to view and print/poster purchase options: Cartoon Aquarium, Circus & Side Show, and Ravens. I will be updating the others as time allows (but I did make myself a schedule). Also, lots of new stuff in the book section, a new and ridiculous bio page, uhh...I will be working on a wholesale pricing page at some point. I will also be updating the projects I am working on (that also has it's own special page). LOTS OF STUFF (still lots to do!). But PLEASE feel free to go have a look at the new (improved?) Darkling Treasures site:
darklingtreasures.com
I spent the afternoon sketching a bunch of sexy ladies out...I do not know what will become of them, as they still need some work, but... soon I will show you something of them! :)
xo!

Helloz!
I am feeling pretty scatterbrained lately. (You must forgive the crazed Emily). I do have three new zodiac monster pieces, though, and a mermaid FB exclusive auction as well! Probably a bit of rambling, too...
The three latest zodiac monsters in the series- Gemini, Cancer, and Leo...they are each for auction on eBay, with starting bids of $20 apiece...Check out the links below each picture for the individual auctions:
"Gemini" zodiac monster mixed media art
"Cancer" zodiac monster mixed media art
"Leo" zodiac monster mixed media art
Of course, you can see them all on one page, along with all my other eBay art auctions by clicking HERE!
I will have the next few zodiac monsters made and listed after the weekend...:)
Perhaps you are in the mood for something...pretty? Well, then you are in luck, because this week on my Facebook Page, I am auctioning off an original, one of a kind miniature mermaid sculpture! She is sitting on a real shell, surrounded by little glass beads in variations of green and blue; her tail sweeps around her. Lots of texture and media in this tiny little thing! Bidding starts at $0, and ends next Tuesday, April 10th, and 11pm EST! You can get all the info on the mermaid and how to bid at the link below the picture:
Mini Mermaid Sculpture- Facebook Exclusive auction!
Speaking of mermaids...:))) I have put aside all of my other working projects for a bit in order to create a very special mermaid piece, for a very special purpose...More details and info to follow soon, along with some teaser shots? For now, allow me to whet your appetites by throwing some keywords at you...pin up...shark...mixed media...nurse...and...that's it for now :) Ahh, such a tease!
Something else I have been working on, and have finally finished- my bag! I guess it's a 'purse' or whatever lady-type item is relative to this shape and size of carrying apparatus...but I am hardly a 'purse' type. I didn't know if you could tell that by the way I tried to disguise it as an awesome red monster...because carrying around a pet red monster is so much less weird to me than carrying around a purse. (Don't judge me).So...anyhoo, pictures of my new fashion accessory:
Half considering making a few smaller/assorted versions and/or change pouches to list one of my etsy shops, but I do have a million other meals rotting on my plate at the moment. :\ Such as- some series projects for my zombietoes etsy shop which no one will probably even care about, but they thrill and entertain ME, and that's all I really care about, in the end. I mean, at least...that's the purpose behind my zombietoes shop. That's all me, pull no punches, sugar no lies, hide no stains. I probably just said too much there. Oh well. So, yeah, there's that cryptic-ness, and then I have *no earthly idea* what I am doing about my website. I haven't even updated it since last June. That's right, JUNE 2011. Pathetic. There's too much art, and it's extremely overwhelming. I am really going to cut back a lot. I really need to get on that. I'm ashamed and quite embarrassed, really. It's reminiscent of the stuff you put in your attic, because you want to 'save' it, but you don't have a reason for doing so. Gah! I don't even know what I am say, I'm just rambling now. The breakdown seems to be- me needy do spring cleany! Ahhh...Okay, that is all. You may resume your lives, though they may be a touch weirder now...
xo!
