New Website + Blog! (Moving)

After a very long process of having to change Web Hosts and editing everything so it actually works better and doesnt take so long to load... I finally finished the New Website! This one has the blog inside it so I wont be using Blogger anymore. I have already changed the feeds to point to the new one... but the people following me through blogger will have to do it manually (if they want) Sorry about this by the way!

Anyway... I hope you like it!! haha.. and that it works for you too! :D Looking forward to hearing from you there!

New Items!




Good Evening! Just a quick update about some brand new item releases this week!
You can now find larger prints that are roughly A4 size (im not sure if that is the right sizing in America??) 8" x 12" ish but some a little less because of the actual image dimensions.

Next!! (which was basically just listed now!!) Do you remember that i mentioned that I would have a "Pick your Own" feature coming soon??
Well now they are here!!
You can get any print of your choice beautifully mounted on a stylish black frame! How cool is that?! They look exactly the same as the pieces i sent over to the gallery ^_^ (but with a piece of your own choice!)

Okay.. so after i have rambled away about my Etsy happenings! ... I am also in the process of painting a set of something quite special ;) The first one has a lot of detail i can tell you that?! heeh! :D

I think thats all from me! (and its about time too haha!) Take Care!

New ACEO Original - Hello Little Flower


New ACEO! :D The little panda is trying to get to the flower :D Idea just randomly popped into my head today. Thought it would do better as an ACEO instead of a digital painting. Im not sure why? But yeah hehe! This was so hard not to smudge! Yet... my fingers are still black from the graphite!! I guess my signiture kind of looks a bit like a diaper pin haha! Oops.. I guess i should have sharpened the pencil again before signing ;P nevermind :D

Hope you like it!! You can find it for sale here.

Forced Creativity

I don't even know what that's meant to be?! I just thought it would be nice to have a picture to go with some ramblings...

Anyways.. I'm pretty sure i will come up with some form of idea to paint and so on this week.. mainly because i can do nothing but sit/lie down right now.. :| Stupid ankle...

I fell on it funny this morning and i don't think i can bare not having any paracetamol! It really kills ugghh! Went to A&E this morning to get it x rayed and to get any crappy thoughts out of my head of worry! Thankfully nothing broken.. but sprained.. i can just about stand on it but cant bend knees or stand on toes and have been advised not to walk for at least a few days..
That pretty much means.. either drawing to get rid of the boredom that WILL accumulate (i doubt there will be anything good on the TV) or sleep haha! Wow! I think this week will really annoy me :| Not because i don't like to draw.. but because im a bit of a fidget bum and cant bare to sit still for more than 30 mins at a time!

I'm thinking of entering a contest on DA... some illustration thing.. i might work on something for that while i cant do anything...

Right now I'm loving my frozen bag of peas! and well.. to be honest its too hot anyways! So its all good in that sense...

Ramble over i think? hmmm (oh and please excuse the lameness of the 2 min doodle!)

As a bouquet of Flowers?!



Haha This dude is from Sesame Street isnt he?


Either that or from the muppets? Anyways.. i got a little carried away on google looking at cupcakes... I found some that didnt totally look like cupcakes though! Arent they cool!?

Okay so you might ask, why is she posting stuff up about cupcakes? Well... the answer is.. i think they look totally cool and would just die eating them :O Mainly because they look so pretty! Oh yeah.. and i think they would all taste super yummy :D

Enjoy!
Oh.. and they may make your mouth water haha!

With The Jellies - WIP and Final

As usual, full view for non pixellated version! Please :D

As you can see, the final one developed quite a lot from the original concept... plus i moved the fish to the center and moved the jellies around it a little more. I thought everything was too much in the bottom right so thats why i made that decision. I know its water and not blue :O but i hope you can still get the feeling its water! :D

Hope you like it!

Some Pretty Cool Games!

I heard about Xbox's Project Natal the other day! I went over to youtube to check it out... it looks so amazing! You can have two characters depending on wether you want it to be a girl or a boy. The girl would be called Milly and the boy would be called Milo. This is just the interactive character that comes with it.. you can draw a picture for him/her... hand it to them and everything!

Anyways... getting to the point... you dont need any remotes for this one, its kind of like the wii fit but taking it onto a whole other level! You can even scan in a skateboard and ride on it! How cool is that? The whole thing basically reminded me of something you would see in a spy movie!

Imagine if Nintendo found out and are actually rising above the Xbox one?! Its already super high artificial intelligence! Not only would you be able to use Project Natal for games... but because it has voice recognition, you could even help kids learn different languages and help them pronounce the words correctly!

Personally, I cant wait to have a go!
Check it out for yourself!

London MCM Expo...


Honestly... I thought this was going to be a lot bigger than it really was... It only took around 2-3 hours to get around everything and I was expecting more artists to be there... but the ones that were.. their art was sooo good to see blown up in giant images! :D
It was quite cool to see everyone Cosplaying too! The costumes were amazing! I had to buy a pink panda hat so I didnt feel so out of it ;P I wouldnt have known what to cosplay as.. and the hat is just plain cool!

I dont think it would be worth presenting there in October im afraid :( Ill look for other things similar :D

On another note.. on the way back.. we got stuck in a huge traffic jam! It took an hour to travel 4 miles... and it was a hot day... old car.. no air conditioning... I died haha!
Strawberry Pocky was nice though ^_^

Ooh! Annnndd, I am offering commissions now :) PearlyPony from DeviantArt convinced me ;) please let me know if you are interested by note on DA or through email.. or here? whichever ;)

Buttons!


Buttons are now available to buy in my etsy shop!! :D
They turned out really nicely!! I just recieved them in the post today after me not being able to sit still until i got them haha!! Im still waiting on the tote bags!! But.. they take longer to print because the size of the print and ladidaaa...

Anyways.. Im pretty pleased with the packaging too to be honest! (self-done) Its pretty thick glitter card which by the way... may come in different colours! Then... it has a strip of black velvet ribbon wrapped around it in the center to place the buttons onto. All wrapped in clear plastic! :D

Well!! Thats how the packaging looks with the 5 different buttons inside them!! You can buy them here! I hope they are okay for everyone!!

Anyways.. thats me out.. until next time... muahahahah!
(nahh just messing)
