Price Cut on Originals

I'm very happy to announce that I'm now able to slash prices on original art. Since I was able to move my site to free website provider, plus I got some hospital bills paid off this month, I can pass the saving onto customers. Also commission work is more affordable for any of you that ever wanted to purchase a commission.

I plan to start adding shopping cart buttons sometime this week. Original art will be the first page to be added.

Going back to my original style

I have some auctions ending tomorrow night. When all my auctions end, I don't plan to list any new art on ebay, until sometime after Thanksgiving.

I'm starting a new larger project. It's a steampunk angel portrait. It will be 11"x14". It will be a lot different than my regular art. I have most of it sketched out. It will be completed on black stonehenge paper. I'm using a reference for the girl. It's going to be more realistic like my fine art. This will be for sale on eBay when it's finished. Prints won't be released until spring.

What stirred me to do this;

I was lying in my bed staring at a self portrait I drew for Roy, back when I was pregnant for Jozi. It's amazing how realistic the eyes are in this piece. I thought to myself, maybe people would like this style of art better than what I do now, so out of the blue I decided to try it. I finally got past the part of picking the reference and I actually have it almost completely sketched out. I'm getting sorta excited to see how it will turn out. I really hope to bring some realistic touches out in it, especially with the eyes. I've been thinking about colors and I've decided on colors too. I plan to use dark blues and aquas. I hope to finish it before Roy has to go back to work after Thanksgiving vacation. I would also like to get some unfinished projects finished as well.

4 listings on eBay

I was going to start adding my paypal buttons this evening, but I soon realized they have changed there codes, so I won't be able to do it the fast way. So I will just add some buttons a little here and there over time.

Now that my site is basically out of the way, I can get back to work on my new mermaids I was going to draw.

I'm running auctions on 4 large originals on ebay. It seems business has picked up for some artists, so I thought I would give it a shot, besides I'm not loosing any money, because these listing are my 4 out of 5 free listing for this 30 days.

My site back up and running :)

Ok I thought it would take a lot longer, but my site is back up and running in it's new home. Yippie!!!! Now all I have to do is add paypal shopping buttons and fix dead links.

My site is through a free website provider now. Get your free site at www.yola.com. You can do just about anything a paid site can do, including customize your look of your site and sell stuff. They have a drop and drag option incase you don't know html.

BTW, check out the new look to my site, (I know, again, LOL)

My site is transferring

My site is shut down and I'm transferring it to it's new home. So don't be alarmed, it will be back in a few days.
