Shop Wide SALE


I'm having a 'shop wide SALE'...
everything in the shop
has been marked down 
10% to 50%.

I had a "dismal" March...
not sure what happened on Etsy...
but many people's shops just kind of
'disappeared'
on Google.

With that...and a number of other 'issues...
it ended up being one of my
worst months EVER!

I don't normally talk about how bad..
or good..
my shop is doing, 
but since I've had so many sales
lately...I felt the 'need' to explain.

Since this is how I make most of the money
I need to live on...another month like
March and I'm not sure I'd be able to
'hang on'.

The worst part...every week one goes without
income puts them behind, at least 2 weeks
on their bills...
because..you've lost a week of income..but not of bills..
now anything you make has to go for 2 weeks of bills...

so..if you go a month...well..
.it's put you 2 months..or more
behind.

So...if I seem to be having a lot of Sales...now
you know why.

Limited Edition Large Prints


After much experimentation,
finding a paper that I liked but, that didn't cost way more than
I could afford to charge for my prints,
I'm now able to
offer a few 'select' pieces
as 

They are printed at an 11" x 14" image
on 13" x 19" premium cotton archival art paper.

I'm pretty excited about being able to do
the larger size prints and decided to start
with editions limited to 50.
I sign, date and number the prints, just below the image
in the right corner.

I was very flattered when my daughter

It was inspired by my little Goth Girl...Mercy.

A take on Snow White...

This Story is by The Brothers Grimm
Translated by D. L. Ashliman

Once upon a time, as a queen sits sewing at her window, she pricks her finger on her needle and three drops of blood fall on the snow that had fallen on her ebony window frame. As she looks at the blood on the snow......


This is part of a "Treasury Tales Tuesday" blog post by Best Art Studios.

I thought this was such a clever idea, that I decided to give it a 'plug' by directing my readers
