Holy Carp its July already!

I am so lazy. It's sad. I have not been motivated to do anything lately. I really need to get on the ball and finish everything I need for the Zazzle store. I have not updated it since April I think. I am pretty upset with myself about that really. Not that I don't have the stuff, I just need to color it and upload it and I have been hating the computer lately. I think I just got fried and needed a break. Anyhow, I have the Etsy store started. Once I finally open it there will be a link to it from here. I am excited about the Etsy store because I can sell my handmade stuff there. I am also collaborating with my mom and my daughter on the Etsy store so you will see stuff from them there as well. I think I may ask my daughter to collaborate on me with the Zazzle store as well, she is a very good artist for being 11 years old. My husband already helps me with the graffiti art, he is so much better at drawing it than I am. I just tweak it a bit and color it in. I try to get him to draw more cause his drawings are amazing but he just won't do it. He has such an amazing gift but has no interest in it what so ever. It kind of makes me crazy lol. So in the Etsy store you can expect beaded bags, canes, paper weights, magnets, picture frames, all sorts of earrings and bracelets; I am really excited about it! Once we finish up a few items I can load them up and my store will be open over there.

And to those of you buying my hats and buttons, THANK YOU!!!! You have no idea how much I appreciate the fact you bought something from me. If I could meet you, I would hug you!

I feel like a bad mom or something. It has been forever since I updated anything. I put a YouTube player on the bottom of the page for your enjoyment. I wanted it on the side but the size of it was a bit too big and it was cut in half so you couldn't see half of the video. So weird but I am going to figure out how to fix it. I have a ton of things I need to color and upload, I just have been busy with school. Life gets in the way at times. I have some posters and am working on a calendar for next year. I am also thinking of making myself a page on Etsy so I can sell some of my other pieces such as paperweights and magnets that I paint by hand. I also may sell some of my beadwork on it.

I have also been doing some graphic work for a dance studio. Baby steps people. I just wish things would go faster but patience will pay off one day. Keeping my fingers crossed on that at least hahaha. Promise to be around more, I have a break coming up so I can concentrate on more things that just school and kids.

Thanks for your support, you have no idea how much I appreciate all of you who come by.

i am on a roll, better watch out!

i have more, i just need to color them by hand and scan them in. enjoy!

One more new design

I drew this last night for my digital illustration class and I liked it so much that I decided to go ahead and use it in the store. He is my bad apple. He takes nothin from no one. He is hard core (horrible pun indeed!)



I particularly like his tattoo.

OMG Update!

I know I am awful about updating this blog. Things have been a tad busy with school. So I have new designs up in the store. A few of them are belated Valentine's Day designs but at least I got them in there, haha. I have been drawing a lot lately. I also have an idea for some color it yourself shirt designs. I am patiently awaiting my graphic pens so I can ink my drawings and get them uploaded so I can make them into posters. Oriental Trading is taking forever in getting my order to me. I finally got me some business cards. Zazzle now has a section for you to make your own business cards so I ordered some. Now I have some cool cards to hand out to people. It is pretty nice. I made a slide show of the new designs, that way I am not clogging up the blog with a ton of pictures. I need to use that feature of Photobucket more often.

Here they are:

OK I will try and be more diligent.

I also want to thank those of you who have bought anything recently! I greatly appreciate it! I think I make up some bumper stickers for advertising. That would be fun.
