Don’t Judge this Book by its Cover

So on top of being so very excited that my talented husband has just posted his first book for the Kindle, I am also psyched about having the cover I did for him posted. Yep, my very first book Cover. I was so worried about working on it when he asked me to do it for him, I’m more of a Character kinda girl, I like to drew people mostly. But even though it did not turn out exactly how I had envisioned it…and it sorta came out looking more like a bear paw instead of a wolf's…I’m pretty happy with how it came out. I think it complements the feel of the book fairly well. You Kindle owners that read his Book will have to let me know if you agree.

If you are interested in reading my husband’s Book…and you should be because it’s awesome…here’s the link to Amazon.

I'm so Excited I'm Extracited! :D

SOOOOO EXCITED!!! My amazingly talented husband Seth, has just posted his 1st book! He has been writing short horror stories since he was a teenager and finally made the leap to novel. The book is a Werewolf story, but if you are looking for the love-sick-four-legged-fuzzy-tweens of the Twilight books, just keep on moving. There are no cuddly puppies in this story. Just Blood, Action and a pinch of the old myths and legends behind werewolf mythology.
Perhaps I’m a bit bias but I couldn’t put it down, it is a great read with likable characters and equally as likable villains…or unlikable rather :)
You can find his new book “Friedkin’s Curse” on Amazon.com

Check it out and Please leave a comment and let him know what you thought of it.

Thanks for reading everyone and Merry Christmas!

Retro Blog…Dec. 21st 2007 :)

Oh Christmas Tree, Oh Christmas Tree, how lovely are your branches…

That’s because of all the Art on them. Yes, I said art. No I haven’t had too much eggnog. :P

The Christmas tree is the ultimate expression of oneself, just like art. That’s why no Christmas tree is the same. When I decorate my Christmas tree, it’s just like when I sit down to paint. The tree is my canvas and the ornaments are my brush. Each piece makes the whole picture and when I’m done its art. Even if it’s lop-sided and there are too many of the same color glass balls hanging together, it’s still my masterpiece. It’s not art that only one person can make, everyone is a Christmas tree artist. Merry Christmas!

Thanks for reading and have a Happy Holiday!

The To-Do List that just won’t stop growing!

I have a loooong To-Do List this month, Working on two commissions, Starting on my husband’s book cover, Doing my sister’s annual Christmas Card…This one is gonna be CUTE! I’m hoping to finish a few more pieces before the Holidays get here and if I have time I would love to update my cafépress store with my new art. I have needed to get this done for some time and have been dragging my feet like the lazy artist I am LOL.
And Last but not least submitting my Art to Spectrum and keeping my fingers crossed they accept me this year.
http://www.spectrumfantasticart.com/about.php
Spectrum is about to release their 19th Artist Book now and I have been submitting my work to them for about 4 years so far…I’m getting very used to their rejection but as always I’m just gonna keep submitting until they accept me :)

This has been such a busy year for me but it’s also been very exciting because I’m getting so many new people enjoying my work.
Now if I could just get more hours in a day it would be easy sailing for me…expecting the longer days any time now.

Anyway keep checking my blog for updates on my newest pieces. Thanks for reading!

Harvest Time Dragons!

Ohhhhhh FUN! Halloween is coming up fast so to get in the Festive Mood I decided to sculpt a few Harvest-Dragon Pals. So far I only have about 4 and they are all shades of green for some reason but I can Hopefully post them in enough time for people to give them a new home before Halloween is over. I really should’ve started sooner. But I’ll be following those up with some Winter holiday Dragons…So excited to get started on Christmas ones Heeee! Anyway have a look at my newest little guys and tell me what you think.

Thanks for reading, keep checking my blog for updates!

The Great Pretender

I can not believe I forgot about these two little darlings…maybe because they are smaller than their Myxie sisters. Just added my Angel and her little Pretender pal to Etsy. These two go together but if you want one more than the other, they are sold separately :)
