Hi hi!
Well, I skipped last week's post entirely...:\ Got all distracted with things and stuff, you know, the usual...But I have new (and very special) art to share today! The Nurse Mermaid piece I have been talking about has been completed and listed for auction, plus I have some cute monster wallets I sewed up last week! AND MORE PILLOWS!! :D
I will start with the mermaid piece- She is titled "Nurse Mermaid" and is shown here caring for two nurse sharks! I created this piece specifically to auction off for a donation to my dear friend Becca, who had some recent and unexpected financial issues (health related). I love her SO MUCH and unfortunately am in no position other than auctioning off art to help her. And sending her lots of love and support, of course! The original "Nurse Mermaid" is a mixed media creation, partially an illustration, partially a painting! You can read all about her and the details of the art at the auction link below:

As always, there is a slew of other art listed for auction on eBay as well; you can see everything HERE!
NOW...Awhile back I posted some pictures of the Monster Bag I made for myself...and I LOVE IT SO MUCH! It is holding up really well (and trust me, I USE my bags), and also getting a lot of comments...so I decided to make up a few small wallet versions to offer to you! There are three right now- a red one, a blue one, and a purple one, and they are SO ADORABLE!! Top zipper closure, fun inside linings, credit card pockets, a little pocket for change... I wish I could keep them all! But really, let's not be silly. ;) So, you can get your very own Monster Wallet through my zombietoes etsy shop at the link below the picture:
Monster Wallets!! Handsewn, original, zippered, Adorable, you know you want one!
I will have you know I am armed with an assortment of patterns, fabrics, threads, ribbons, and zippers...and I am prepared to overtake your homes and fashion sensibilities (which could be bad because I am fashion-senseless...)
WEEE! Pillows! I designed a bunch more pillows for my Zazzle shop- most of these new ones are dragons! You can see them all at the link below this pillow:
Fantasy Art Pillows- dragons, fairies, zombies!
So, that's about it for the moment. PLEASE do share that Nurse Mermaid link around, if you will.can, because Becca is VERY special to me and I want to do right by her! Also, I have NOT abandoned my Monster Zodiac series...I will be posting Capricorn in the next few days, plus another new painting! :))
xo!

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:

Okay...off I go!!
xo!
