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!

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!

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!

 

Mini-book

A mini-book made from a double-sided 12x12 scrapbook paper. I made it for a swap on swap-bot. This was the first page, inside the red pockets was a rainbow of ATC blanks, and the little doll below.

I made her/him! They're so much fun to make. Just wire and floss, plus a tiny tiny scrap of cloth, and a bead. This guy is about 1 inch tall minus the hair.

This is an ATC that was in one of the pages of the mini-book. The paper is kinda sparkly, if you can see it.

The last page in the mini-book. There were 2 other pages, but the first and the last are the best. The little house pulls out, and says Let It Snow on it.

The front cover of the mini-book, with another little doll. :)

Anubus & A Bulbous Bouffant

This is an ATC I made for a Halloween swap on swap-bot. I just love how the "ghost" turned out. :D I love the kinda jackel-shape it has, like Anubus. It was an accident, but totally fitting!

Just another seahorse ATC I drew. The seahorse is tinier than normal, though, so I had more room to add seaweed and currents around him.

This is for an ATC swap on swap-bot. The theme was purple mermaids. I like her "bulbous bouffant" hairdo!

Witch ATC Swap

I drew both these ATCs for a Witch Swap on swapbot. I love how this one's hair turned out, I suppose with dreadlocks or beads in it. :) The cat I also really like, except for the fact its sorta floating above the grass...

 

This one has awesome creepy leafless trees. and cute little freckles! Or maybe they're worts on her nose?

Altered Text ATCs

These are two ATCs I made back in June for a swap on swap-bot. There were a series of swaps, all altered-text, with each swap being a different color. This was the black swap. I like the layout and aesthetics of both, and especially the bottom one. The book pages came from one of Frank Herbert's Dune books.
