Funky

I've been in a little bit of a funk the past couple of days. I haven't really posted anything new in my stores, just been doing a bit of relisting. I haven't created any new ACEOS, but I have been working on some digital art that I would like to sell prints of. On the crochet front- I'm almost done with a jellyfish- he will be called Piccasso, he is white with some fancy rainbow bits.

Sparrow Norway Rabbit ACEO

I found a beautiful postcard sent from Norway to "Nord America" in the 1900s at an antique shop the other day. The writing on it was so exquisite, I knew I needed it for my art. I made this ACEO, "Sparrow Norway Rabbit" out of it. I used the postcard and the stamp as well as some angora rabbit fur. I think it turned out quite lovely.

Eggy and Toasty BFF


Eggy and Toasty BFF, originally uploaded by Chimera Creation.

Here is a portrait of Eggie and his sidekick Toasty. I had SO much fun making this cute little duo. I started by making the jellyfish top and when I had it half done I thought, "Gee this looks like a sunnyside up egg yolk." So I decided to make white stingers so he would be totally egg colored. And what goes better with a sunnyside up egg, but toast? I never use a pattern so I was hoping I could make a toast shape. I think he turned out pretty good. Aww... smiling toast... (^_^)

A Peek
