Christmas Art

 This ATC was for a swap on swap-bot.com. The theme was a dragon and Christmas. So here we go! A christmas colored dragon stringing lights on his little tree in the snow. And  lots of glitter of course!

These two sets of inchies are for swaps on swap-bot.com. I am hosting both swaps, one is winter themed, the other Christmas! Both sets have glitter and sparkles, because, why not?! I made these while watching Anime, yay!

Mermaids!

Because I can never have enough mermaids, here are two more! The top is an ATC done for a Sloth-themed swap on swap-bot.com. The bottom I sold on ebay.com. Both were made with watercolors.

Altered Text Poems ATCs

I created both of these for swaps on swap-bot.com. I have fun with these "poems." The pink one is a page from a book about knights, the purple is a page from Children of Dune, by Frank Herbert. I have never read Dune books, but they make good collage pages! And using them in my art makes me want to read it, it's on my list.

Star Trek ATC swap

I made both of these for a swap on swap-bot.com. It was a star trek theme, obviously!

ACEOs on eBay

I drew both of these this past week down in Cannon Beach, OR. A pineapple, and a dragon. Both with black pen, and the pineapple also has a bit of colored pencil highlighting. :)

Prideful Mermaid ATC

A prideful mermaid, drawn with colored pencil and a pen. She's for a swap on swap-bot.com, part of a 7 deadly sins series. I drew her this August.

Dragons Breath Fire!

Here's an ATC that I drew (back in March!) and then colored in with markers(gasp!) I don't usually use markers to color in, but in this case it seemed like a good idea. :)
The dragon is accented with gold glitter paint on the fire, and stick-on sparkly gems. I think I swapped this one...

Mermaid Painting ATC

I drew and watercolored this mermaid ATC for a swap on swap-bot.com. I love how the water/sky turned out, and her tail fins. :)

Two Baby Jellies in a Sea-forest

I drew this last night while watching star trek enterprise. It's for a private swap on swap-bot.com. The theme was "Under the Sea" and I figured I hadn't done jellyfish much yet, so this is what I came up with. Two baby jellies swimming through a sea-forest!

Green and Blue Betta Fish ACEO

So here's my latest listing on my etsy shop. I drew it a few weeks ago, in March. It's delightfully colorful! I reallly like how the fins turned out, with the blue/teal/green colors mixed together. This is ACEO/ATC sized, so 2.5x3.5 inches total. There are a few other photos of it on the etsy listing. :)

Postage Stamp ATCs

Here's an ATC with two Noah Webster stamps.

And this ATC has a floral stamp from 2004. I remember when these stamps came out, 9 years ago now! There is sparkley paint on each of the 4 flowers. Neither of these ATCs were for any specific swap, so I will probably trade them in a Sender's choice swap, or as extras in other swaps.

 

 

 

Map Monsters ATC

I made both these ATCs for a swap on swap-bot.com. The theme was map monsters, like those monsters drawn on the outskirts of old maps.

Mermaid Art posted on Etsy

I posted new art to etsy, after a very long time of just re-listed the old art I had on there. I was inspired by the fact I've now sold a total of 5 items since the new year! Yay!
I drew both of these today while waiting to drive my brother back from his chemistry class! I feel like it was a productive time. I love the colors of orange and purple and red together.

This one is an ATC/ACEO.

This one is 4.5x6.5 inches.

Purple Mermaid ATC

ATC for a swap on swap-bot.com. The swap theme was Purple Mermaids. I just had to add sparkles too!

Black Cat Postcard

This is a postcard I drew for someone in an old swap from Halloween. I had to create something different for each of several categories; witch, cat, bat, pumpkin, and ghost. This was for the cat category! :)

Lips ATC

The ATC I made for a swap I'm hosting on swap-bot.com. The theme is lips! 

This is ink and a wee bit of watercolor.

Shiney Valentine ATCs

Here are 2 more Valentines ATCs I made. I just love sparkly shiney stuffs! :D

Valentine ATCs and Playing Cards

 

A whole bunch of ATCs I made this weekend for various swaps on swap-bot.com. And my first playing card ATCs!

 

Water Themed Inchies

 Here's 4 water-themed inchies I made for a swap on swap-bot.com. I love watercolor! Its so organic and watery looking. Duh.

This was a custom drawing I did for someone on Etsy. I really love how it turned out! :D It is 11x14"
