Happy Weekend everyone!
I've got two new original ACEOs to share with you tonight, a slew of ACEO prints, info on my latest Facebook exclusive auction, and a reminder about my zombietoes shop sale...
My back is giving me a bit of trouble tonight, so I will just get right to this so I can go sit down...The first new ACEO original is a pseudo- Halloween themed piece, though I had not really planned it to be :) It is titled simply "Vampire and Dragon"- again, this is an original 3.5" x 2.5" illustration. It is up for auction on ebay, starting at just $5! To see all the info and details, just click on the link below the picture:

And, the other new ACEO is the next piece in my Circus & Side Show series! "Tightrope" is a young-ish girl tightrope walker, all decked out in her costume, and up on the high wire! This is an original 2.5" x 3.5" illustration, and is also up for auction on eBay, with a starting bit of $5! The link below the picture will take you to the auction listing:

Happy weekend all!
As usual, I have been busy with lots of stuff! Of course, a lot of it is real life related, and not art related...:( I am trying to stay patient with the current setup...in a few weeks, I am hoping my hours at work will go down a bit and I will have much more time for creating...
So...I do have some new art to share, of course. Firstly, a few brand new ACEOs from my ongoing circus & side show series, and a zombie, too.
ZOMBIE!!! Sorry...*ahem* allow me to compose myself...........Okay. I have a brand new, ORIGINAL, zombie pin up girl ACEO illustration! I have titled her "Rotten B*tch"...she is illustrated in archival inks and acrylic paints on bristol...Up for auction on eBay, with a starting bid of just $5! I **LOOOVE** this piece, so if she does not get any bids, I think she will be drafted to my personal collection...You can see the auction listing, and make your bids, at the link below her picture:

Hello hello!
Whew! Busy week! Not a lot of time for art, sadly, but I seem to be making great progress on some of my other projects! And, as always, I have no respite from the influx of new ideas...
So, I do have a few new things to share- two new mermaid ACEO originals up for auction (plus a whole bunch of ACEO prints), and a zombie poster featuring 9 of my zombie ink blots!
Yes, New art!!! Both mermaids! The first is a little girl I like to call "Dark Waves"- she is a very sultry brunette siren, watching the sunset over crashing waves. I really love the colors in this ACEO! "Dark Waves" is up for auction on eBay, with a starting bid of just $5...To see the auction listing and perhaps make a bid, just visit the link below her picture:
"Dark Waves" original mermaid at sunset fantasy ACEO art
The other new mermaid ACEO is called "Green Girl"- she's all green! I wanted to switch around the colors a bit in this piece, so the sand and rocks are pink...it's like an underwater candyland LOL! At any rate, this cuties is also up for auction on eBay, also with a starting bid of only $5. To see more details, pictures, and to make a bid, please visit the link below her picture:

And...a whole *slew* of 99 cent ACEO print auctions are also running...there are some older pieces, as well as some of my more recent ones. To see all the auctions I have on one page, just click the link below the picture:

Now...zombie time! I have finally gotten around to making up a poster featuring all of my Zombie Ink Blot images (based off the Rorschach psychology test)...It is up in my Zazzle shop, at the link below the picture, if you would like to see more/purchase one for yourself/a friend/loved one...You can also choose your own size of poster, what type of paper (or even canvas!) and even get a custom frame! Ah, how I love Zazzle! Here is the picture and the link:

The lovely folks over at MyTagArt have put up a bunch of new tubes/tag images for me! One of them is even seperated into three layers- what fun! Here is the link to my page there, where you can see all the available images; new additions are at the bottom of the page!

So, yes, I've been at my real job pretty much all week. I am very very glad to have a job. However, I am beginning to resent ALL THE HOURS I SPEND THERE. I love my crew. I hate pizza. I hate the mall. I hate not having time/energy to do all the things I want to when I get home. I wish I could just cut sleep out of my schedule entirely; that would solve a bunch of my troubles. Except, of course, for being tired all the time.
xo!

Oh, man...
Sorry about being lame and not posting anything for a week! :\ I've been gardening my butt off, getting ready for a craft fair, moving furniture around...Tons of random chores and errands! Ugh, just thinking about it all is making me tired! But...I did get to mall with my girlfriends, and go out for drinks this weekend, so...I did get some relaxation in :)
Unfortunately, I don't have anything brand new as far as art goes, but I do have some eBay auctions running right now that I had not posted previously...So I will update you all on those right now!
The first is an original ACEO illustration- "Over the Rainbow" is one of my new favorites! A pretty (and tasteful) nude, sitting on a fluffy cloud, under a rainbow. On her parisol perches a little bird. She is an original ACEO (Art Cards, Editions, and Originals- 25" x 3.5") up for auction on eBay...She only has a few days left, and a few bids on her (but she is still under $5)...To see more info and details, please follow the link below the picture:
"Over the Rainbow" original nude ACEO
Another ACEO for auction on eBay- "Green Smile"- this ACEO is an open edition print of my original illustration...A sultry pin up, in green and black striped lingerie, holds a rather tantalizing purple hooka. She is also wearing a top hat, one of my favorite frivolous fashion accessories :) This print starts at a 99 cent bid...To see more, please follow the link below her picture:
"Green Smile" ACEO print auction
One last auction :) I've listed the original painting of "Raven 15" for auction- this piece was previously living in my darklingemily etsy shop, but I thought I'd try it in a different venue...This is indeed part of my ravens series, featuring simple black birds on colorful, abstract backgrounds. "Raven 15' is painted in acrylics on a 7" x 5" sheet of artist canvas, and is listed at a starting bid of just $9.99! To see the auction, and perhaps even bid, just visit the link below the picture:

Also, this is just a little reminder- my "Daydreaming Mermaid" original ACEO illustration ends tomorrow; she is still at a very reasonable price if you would like to make a bid ;) ;) To view her auction, just click the link below her picture:

Even though I do not have any new art, I do have some new Zazzle products :) There are some new posters/prints available, as well as some nifty new zombie t shirts! To see everything I've got, please click the link below the picture:
New t shirts, posters, and more on Zazzle!
I swear, later this week I will have brand new art to show off, and more information regarding the craft fair I will be attending- offering lots of art (originals, prints, ACEOs, etc) and other goodies like bookmarks and free smiles, of course! But, for now, I am going to watch a movie about Jeffery Dahmer, eat some M+Ms, and futz around the studio.

I had a rather bland day today- mostly paperwork and stuff, with a bit of brainstorming and sketching along the way- very boring. But, I do have a rather exciting new zombie painting to show off!!
These are the latest flesh eating monsters! This painting is one of my favorites- it kinda freaks me out. I call it "Private Party"- it is a 14" x 11" acrylic painting on a sheet of canvas- it will need a frame. To see details and perhaps even own the original, please follow the link below the picture:
"Private Party" original zombie painting
Also new in zombie art news- prints and posters of my "A Bad Approach" zombie farm house attack painting are now available through my zazzle shop:
"A Bad Approach" zombie art posters and prints on Zazzle
If you should happen to be interested in owning the original painting, it is here in my zombietoes shop.
Now, on to something a bit less frightening: the original "Water Dragon" painting is now up for auction on eBay! This piece is part of my dragon mini series on the elements. It also happens to be one of my personal favorites. "Water Dragon" is an original 8" x 10" acrylic painting (on a canvas panel). It is up with a starting bid of $35, and shipping is free! To see the listing and make your bid, please follow the link below the picture:

Now, I am gonna get all ambitious and try to make some cookies. I really want them, but I dont want to make them, but I can't have them if I dont make them...It's a vicious cycle that really makes one weigh the importance of junkfood vs laziness.

Yoy!
I am afraid that my focus is not what it should be lately. I am all over the place! Too many ideas to be able to finish one with patience, without going off on some random tangent...Sometimes I wish I was not my own boss. I could really use someone around once in awhile to yell at me to get back on track. Heh heh!
But I will just have to manage on my own for now. EEE!! "Someone left Emily to her own devices...everyone watch out!"
Anyhoo...I am here to inform you all that this blog post is about dark arts, so if you are here for "pretty" or "cute", you are S.O.L. this round, sorry! :P First, I have put up my ORIGINAL "Mervamp" painting for auction on eBay- yes, my beloved blood sucking mermaid vampire is up for a 10 day auction, starting at just $35, with free shipping! She is an original 12" x 9" acrylic painting on gallery wrapped canvas, and I am hoping that she finds just the right home where she will be loved and cherished despite her evil tendancies.
To see the auction listing, and perhaps even make a bid, please follow the link below her picture:
"Mervamp" original dark fantasy art auction
I also have an assortment of dragon ACEOs listed, each starting at just $5, most are prints, some are originals...You can view all of my eBay listings at this link:
Emily's eBay listings
This next batch of art is something very exciting to me, though I am not sure why, as they came from a fairly simple idea...I just really love them! They are my latest addition to my zombietoes etsy shop...Zombie ink blots! I've gone and taken the Rorschach psychology test and twisted it up a bit in my Zombie-obsessed brain; there are multiple ink blots to be seen and had! These are prints, and open edition at that, but they are somewhat subtle as far as zombie artwork goes...At first glance, they just look like, well, ink blots! I've used a bunch of silhouette zombies from my assorted illustrations/paintings, and added in a few new ones...
To see all I have listed so far, please visit the link below the picture:
Zombie Ink Blot Art Prints
So, that's about it...I am in the midst of a really fun painting, so...I'll be off now to get her finished!

I just spent a long time plotting out my schedule for the next few months...If I don't write it down, I tend to get lazy...so, now my life revolves around what my dayplanner says...Pathetic, I know. But at least I am using the dern planner...LOL!
Anyhoo, I have some brand new paintings to show you all tonight! Finally! This first one is "Dusk"- a dusty yellow dragon perched in the trees at sundown...I really like how it turned out :) He is an original 10" x 8" acrylic painting (on a canvas panel) and he is currently being housed in my darklingemily etsy shop...Free shipping on this bad boy! Yay! To read his little blurb, see detail pictures, and perhaps even adopt him into your home, please follow the link below the photo:
"Dusk" big eye dragon fantasy art original
Also brand new from me is this smaller fantasy painting- this one is titled "Out of the Blue" because that's pretty much where it came from (as with most of my art hee hee!). This is a smaller piece, at 5" x 7", and features a light blue speckled dragon that this cute-but-shadowy angel girl has conjured up...I wish I could just conjure up dragons out of nowhere, for realsies, but I will have to settle for just painting them, I suppose :)
This new painting is up for auction on eBay tonight, starting at a stupid-low bid of $15, with free shipping, too! To see the details and read the little story, please follow the link below the picture:
"Out of the Blue" Original Angel and Dragon big eye art
What's with all the blue, you say? Well, I have been feeling kinda blah the last two weeks, so I guess it shows in my color choice LOL! It's a good thing painting makes me feel better, or I would be up shit's creek right about now. I know things will get better, because I just have to have faith in that, but...damn, sometimes I get really impatient. It's hard work lifting one's own spirits sometimes. Once they are up, though, they usually *stay* up, but that has not been the case as of late. I suppose in my impatience, I have cultivated a bit of frustration, making me just a little bit bratty...
Of course, being an "artist", I am pulled into filtering through these strange and unweildy things called "emotions" through my creations...So, needless to say, I have been working on a lot of zombie-related items in the background. Some of which will be part of a larger project...That, of course, does not help with the impatience factor, but...Zombies always make me smile. I honestly don't know what I would do without them! And speaking of...I'd better get back to them, or they might come alive and end all my emo B.S. by turning me into one of them...but hey, if you can't beat 'em, join 'em...right?
xo!
