She is done! Since this is the first painting I have done like this, I thought I would put it up for auction instead of my usual selling venues. Check her out on eBay.
The painting is 8×8″. It was inked and then painted with watercolors.

Well this is a bit different isn’t it. I think I must have been inspired by the Dr. Sketchy events that I have been attending. But here is a bit of sex appeal in fairy form for you all. I am trying to decide where to go from here. But it [...]

I am so pleased with how the submarine turned out in this painting. I have never done machinery with paint before, so this was something completely new to me. But here we have the cutest little mercat with a steampunk style submarine. He is such a large mercat, that I suspect he [...]

Okay this is the rough sketch of the mercat with the crashed steampunk style submarine. I really enjoyed designing the sub. Next time I will need to design the full thing, but it will just be fun.

I have been decorating up my envelopes and packages that I send out with my nifty stamps from QKD. Today I used my Christmas Dragon, a flower from the retro circles set and some snowflakes that are not QKD. I will say that you can tell a difference on the ink distribution between [...]

I have been making some gift tags for the holidays with my nifty dragon stamps by QKD. For these I used some card stock from a package of card stock scraps I got for $4 at my local craft shop. And the nifty colorful paper is some scraps I had from [...]
