Weekly Special - Mystery Print Grab Bag!

From Tuesday 5/22/12 - Monday 5/28/12 I am offering a mystery print grab bag including 5 random 5x7" prints and 5 random ACEO prints for only 20!!

******************

The retail value of this set is $60, so that's a huge savings of $40!

With this weekly special, you will receive 5 random 5x7" prints that are packaged with a backing board and a clear plastic sleeve. You will also receive 5 random ACEO prints that measure 2.5x3.5" and are packaged in a clear plastic sleeve. I will make sure to include 10 unique images, so you will not get any duplicates!

I will be picking from a selection of over 70 different images, so this picture only shows a small sampling of the images that I will be picking from. Your print selection will be completely random and may or may not include some of these images. It will definitely be a fun surprise when you receive the package!

I will of course be happy to sign any prints upon request! Just let me know in your order that you would like them signed. =)

Portrait of a Steampunk #3 - Naming Contest!

I have a new sketch to share with you all today! I had a lot of fun sketching this steampunk piece. She will be part of my Portrait Series where I showcase my girls in a more close up pose with a simplistic color scheme and background. This will be my third Steampunk in the series. And she's looking for a name!

Think you have a name that would be perfect for her? Well, I'd love for you to post your suggestions below! I've allowed anonymous posts, so even if you don't have an account, just post your suggestion below. When posting a name, please also put your email address so that I can get in contact with you if you win! The winner will receive a 5x7" print of the finished piece.

I hope you all enjoy this sketch! I'm already working on the linework for her. You can watch the whole piece evolve on my Facebook Fan Page here.

Winner of Naming Contest - Fire Witch Painting

Well, after much thought on all the fabulous names suggested, I have come to a decision about the names for my new Fire Witch painting. And the winner is....Heather Savino! Her suggestion that I chose is Serafina for the witch and Firenze for the phoenix. So the full name of the piece will be Serafina and Firenze. Heather will win a 5x7" print of the finished piece.

When choosing the name, I was looking for a clear distinction between the witch name and the phoenix name. I think it's pretty easy to determine which name goes with the witch and which name goes with the phoenix. Serafina sounds like such a pretty witch name, especially one with fire abilities. Heather also found that it means burning one, which is pretty neat! I also loved the name of Firenze for the phoenix. It just sounds like a powerful name for such a magical creature.

All of the names were of course fabulous! I really appreciate all the time and effort you all put into the names by researching the different meanings. It means so much to me and thank you for participating! I have lots of naming contests, so there will be plenty of other chances to win. Thanks again! =)
