FEST Treasure Hunt, blog feature, new Etsy items

a few quick updates...  


1. I donated a set of greeting cards for the FEST: Florida Etsy Street Team Treasure Hunt, starting May 1! You don't have to be a member of the team or even Etsy to play. Take a look at some of the prizes here: Florida Etsy Street Team Treasure Hunt Challenge!

Paisley Butterfly Greeting Cards (Set of 5)

2. Artist Elaine Alonzo featured my painting Lucky in a recent blog post - be sure to check out the rest of her blog, she's a talented lady.

3. While these aren't new paintings, they are two new listings in my Etsy shop: 

    

Goldfish Queen - Original Painting / Butterfly Queen - Original Painting

I've been going through all of my originals and deciding which ones to list that haven't been yet; hopefully I will have a few more listed in the next week or so, along with new prints! (The printers I use are a little slow; thus begins the excited but impatient wait for the mail...)

sharks and sidewalk arts

a little something my boyfriend requested... a shark howling at the moon. 

there's not much to share this week... planning and practicing for the upcoming Sidewalk Arts Festival has been taking up most of my creative brainpower. if you're in or around Savannah you should definitely come out, it's huge! there's also the Cyberwalk Art Contest if you can't make it in person; i particularly like this submission by Chloe Mooberry, super talented artist and former SCAD roomie: 

 

she did this with a mouse. 

a mini-interview, and a work in progress

goodness: The lovely Allison Weeks Thomas, illustrator and fellow SCAD grad, has a little mini-interview with me up today for her Artist du Jour series! Be sure to check out her blog, she does awesome work. 

(and here's a sneak peek of something i've been working on lately:)
