The people I volunteer for at the hospital wanted to see them, so I took them up today when I went to work. Evidently, they told someone about it and she came to see me and bought the Asian~themed one on the spot!!! I was floored.

I think the surprise lies in the fact that this particular canvas was just the 5th one I had made! Don't worry.....I took her money.

nycfem · 01-01-2011, 06:36 AM

That's so cool!!! And she's the lucky one- your Asian themed piece is gorgeous! I have a fondness for Asian themed art and your work stayed with me (in my mind, I mean!). Get that Etsy store up!

My goodness! Life is good!
I sold another piece! It's called "JAVA" (in the Gallery).
I also got a commission to do a larger piece!!!

Also, in the Gallery, I posted the beginnings of my latest piece called "DEAL"...hee hee (the girl's holding cards)

Yeah.....Etsy's callin' my name!

They are great Diva. I wanted the Morning Coffee one. Goooooood stuff. Love the Asian theme one too. I still have the Corset with Asian wirting you did for a project. It holds a special place on a glass display shelf in my Guest Bathroom.
CONGRATULATIONS ON THIS NEW ADVENTURE.

Oh wow! I had almost forgotten about those corset cards I made! That was a fun project! Thank You, Tommi!!

Ok....after consultation with my Sissy ~ ShariBerry ~ she suggested I use "Twirly Girl" somehow. (When I painted a lot of pottery, I had a Twirly Girl series...someone got my Twirly Girl margarita glass at the Reunion!) So....my Etsy store will be called: Twirly Girl Art

Diva · 01-06-2011, 08:50 PM

I've posted the beginning stage of the commissioned piece.....um...yeah....there's a theme.

And the 3D part of it goes on next and it is going to be my favorite thing ever, I think! I might have to do another one similar!

I love corrugated cardboard, wire and sharp instruments....just sayin'....

Diva · 01-07-2011, 08:25 AM

I've posted stage 2. I think I might call it "Black & Blue", yet that seems so obvious a title, I'm not sure it's fitting.....

Heartwired (like "hot wired") is jumping out at me, too....whadaya think?

To the best of my foggy post Reunion collection, I recall Twirly Gorl Magarita being part of the PenPal thread, which our Jennifer won.

Reminding me ..I need to mail 2 Breast Cancer bracelets that were missed when that prize was picked up..jen can you pm me the right addy. I am trying the catch up game...

Gemme · 01-08-2011, 08:31 PM

I will begin the Heartless/Redless Project on Monday.

That is all.
