Completion! How sweet the word...





Here are my "Beautiful Nature Series" 1-3. I finally completed the polymer atcs I was working on. I am quite proud of them actually. It took a lot of planning on my part to decide which colors to use for each and what I wanted the art work to relay to the viewer. So after much trial and error, I tried to paint with watercolors but it didn't work, I finally have 3 finished pieces that I am pretty proud of. I originally made these cards with the intent to trade but I have just simply put to many woman hours into these little pieces of art. I am not sure how much I want to sell them for but I don't think that I can part from them for free. Unless of course there is another polymer artist out there who would like to trade. Polymer for polymer?? :)

ATC Exchange




I haven't really been keeping up with this blog, but I have been quite busy lately. Anyway, I have some great news! I just got back from an ATC card exchange in Freeport ME. Maine! I haven't ever heard of another one in Maine so that is pretty exciting in itself. Even more exiting is that there is going to be another one! April 11th people! Mark it on the calendar. The first one was kind of a bust. Only 4 or 5 people actually showed and 2 of them were owners of the gallery. So the next one is going to be a mail in or come in kind of show. What they will do is advertise all over the globe, get cards from everywhere, the people who come to the show can trade and then all the cards will be traded and then sent back. So say that some one from Brazil sent in 9 cards. They would get 9 cards back by 9 different artists. Get it? Pretty fun from an artist's p.o.v. So in light of this ATC kick I am on right now I posted some pictures of some of my own atcs'. Hope you like them. If you want more information leave a comment or send me an IM on yahoo. My screen name is blackfox09. I would love for as many people as possible to participate in this event!
