Free Shipping Etsy Sale - Last Day!

Thu Dec 31, 2009, 8:55 AM


UPDATE: Sorry for yet another update, but I wanted to send out a reminder that this is the last day for free shipping on my Etsy shop! There's also a new item below. Have a great New Year, everyone!

As I put new stuff up in the Etsy shop, I'll post it below. Some of the items (such as keychains) I won't necessarily upload as a deviation here on DA, but I'll put them in this journal entry so you can see what's available. Also, free shipping in the US continues until December 20th! December 31st!

With the holidays coming up, I know everyone's starting to do their shopping. I know the economy is hurting everyone and every dollar counts, so I'm offering free shipping on everything in my Etsy Shop within the United States. I wish I could extend the free shipping sale to all of you outside the U.S., but international shipping rates are so much higher that it's impossible. D:

Also, there's no limitations to the free domestic shipping sale. Be it one item, two, nine, whatever, it all ships for free. :3 ALSO, I'm offering free shipping for custom items, too. Is there something you would like that's on my DA page that you don't see in my Etsy shop? Let me know! More than likely I can make it available.

ONE MORE DAY FOR CALENDAR SALE!

Wed Nov 25, 2009, 9:06 AM


EDIT: I must have all orders for the calendars by tomorrow, December 1st at 11:59 pm. That is when I will make the order for the calendars. If you are interested in a signed calendar with a pen drawing, you must contact me by today with your order via note or comment!

A quick little note to let you know that there are a couple new keychains up on my Etsy shop:

Sneaky Raccoon:




Green Baby Gryphon:



If you would like a custom keychain, or an existing design with custom colors, please let me know! I don't charge extra for custom colors on existing designs, and these make great little gifts. I'd love to get a little gryphon keychain in my stocking. If I had a stocking. :D


----CALENDARS----

On December 1st, I'll order the whole batch of calendars, so I have to have your orders by then! I can't give extensions on this deadline since in order for me to get everyone their calendars by Christmas, I have to order by December 1st. Information can be found below.

CALENDARS:
It looks like it's that time of year again - calendar time! :D

Surprisingly, I got my calendar ready ahead of time instead of in the middle of December or after the new year. Hopefully for those of you who are interested, this leaves enough time to order one.

As I do every year, I'm holding the same calendar special. How does it work? If you want a calendar (or more than one, even), leave me a comment or note. I will be taking orders for these until December 1. That leaves one whole month. :D Once I have all the orders, I'll order all the calendars, sign them and include a small pen drawing of whatever you want.

I'll also be offering the calendars cheaper through this sale than you'll find posted in my DA shop. On the DA shop I'll have them up for $30 (PLUS whatever shipping you have to pay), but if you order through me you can get it for $25 plus $5 shipping within the United States. So the calendar is cheaper, AND signed, AND you get a free small pen drawing. Woo!

Just a bit of information about the illustrations in the calendar - these are my thesis paintings that I did for my M.F.A. in illustration thesis. The paintings also include a small bit of information about the bird and its cultural influence. If interested, please leave a comment or send me a note. I'm excited about this year's calendar. :D

Birdflower Sale! Oh so many Birdflowers D:

Wed Sep 16, 2009, 2:09 PM


As mentioned in my previous journal, I have a massive overflow of Birdflower prints! D: Unlike last year where I nearly sold out, this year at DragonCon, not a single Birdflower got picked up. :( Needless to say, they're all quite sad that they didn't get nice homes.

Of course, this also means I have about 50 Birdflower prints sitting like a lead lump in a box, so I'm going to make an offer -

Usually I sell these for $15, as they are limited edition prints. They are 9X12, a run of 35, and printed on archival Kodak paper. They have sturdy backing in a crystal clear archival bag, all nice and sealed, and are signed and numbered.

However, for this sale, I will offer them for $10 each plus only $2 for shipping in the United States (usually I charge $3). This is also a flat shipping charge, meaning if you buy one, or if you buy twenty, you still pay only $2 for shipping in the US! Please contact me for international shipping, since it varies so much depending on where you are.

Please adopt a Birdflower :) They make wonderful gifts, they don't molt too much, but when they do, the feathers make a lovely potpourri since they're scented like flowers!

The Birdflowers I have on hand are:


Carnation (January)


Iris (February)


Daffodil (March)


Daisy (April)


Lily (May)


Rose (June)


Larkspur (July)


Gladiolus (August)


Aster (September)


Calendula (October)


Chrysanthemum (November)


Poinsettia (December)

If interested, please comment here or send me a note. :)

DragonCon Report and Masks on Etsy!

Fri Sep 11, 2009, 8:57 PM


This post may seem a bit late, but I was in Georgia for a few additional days after DragonCon working on something, so I only now returned home.

DragonCon was, as always, quite awesome. The art show blew me away as it always does. It seems every year the art gets better and the inspiration is overwhelming. This year I participated in the artist charity auction, of which the theme this time was "When Pigs Fly." We were assigned porcelain piggy banks to decorate, and I painted mine as a gryphon, complete with leather wings, beak, and tail, and feathers. It titled it I Wanna Be a Gryphon Piggy since with his tied-on beak and tail, he was pretending to be a gryphon. I was also quite excited to be awarded 2nd place in the charity pigs category! The best part was that all the pigs were auctioned to benefit the Georgia Alzheimer's Association, which is a disease that has affected the families of many people I know.

For all of you who came to my panel on drawing wings - thank you! I was deathly afraid that no one would come, but it turned out the room was nearly full of people wanting to learn some wing basics! I apologize if it was 80% bird wings, then 10% bat and 10% insect, but I warned everyone of that at the beginning. :D I will upload the printout in case anyone wants an extra.

Also, this year was a bit...odd in terms of what sold. Last year my Birdflower prints nearly sold out, so I figured I'd stock up this year to meet the demand. Strangely enough, this year I didn't sell a single Birdflower print! :O So, once I am able to ship them back to myself, I may put up a special sale for them since I only have about...50 Birdflowers looking forlornly up at me wishing they could have a nice wall to hang on.

Also, I know a few people were interested in some originals that I was bringing to DragonCon, which I couldn't sell until after the convention. The Wind Spirit Mask now has a new home, as well as "Breathe," "Winter Gryphon," and "End of the Path." My other masks are still available, three of which I have put on Etsy. You can find them here:

Windfalcon's Masks on Etsy

So far I have Spring Bird, Summer Bird, and the Dusklight Raven Mask up. I may also put the small scratchboards up when I have a chance.

Also, I'm seriously considering participating in the AnthroCon art show this year. I'm not too familiar with anthro conventions, so anyone who has been to the convention, or is familiar with anthro conventions, please let me know if my work would fit in there. I don't do too much anthro work, but I definitely do a lot of birds and gryphons and fantasy animals.

DragonCon Art Show and Thank You!

Wed Sep 2, 2009, 7:14 PM


Firstly, I want to thank everyone who offered words of support and well wishes for my father :) I was amazed with the overwhelming amount of support from all around. I'm pleased to say that my father is doing much better - his appetite is not only back, but healthier than before. He also has his sense of humor back which is very important - when you're recovering from an illness and surgery, you need to have a positive outlook.

Thank you also to those of you who bought art and purchased future commissions. With your help, I was able to help a bit with finances and things are a bit more stable. For all of you who bought art, I hope you enjoy your drawing, painting, or print and I thank you for not only helping me out, but for giving it a better home than tucked away in a dark portfolio, which would have continued to be its fate with me. :)

Right now I am in Atlanta taking a short break from preparations for the DragonCon art show. Just for clarification, I've been preparing for the art show for close to half a year and had my airfare and hotel purchased long in advance. I'm going to be very frugal and all the money I'm spending is money I already had put aside for this event. The DragonCon art show is a very important event for me. It's the biggest art show I participate in, and this year I will have a large bay, which means four whole panels of art!

Most of the work I'll have up will be originals, and I will have quite a few prints in the print shop. I also will host a panel on how to draw wings for fantasy art, and I will be participating in the Monster in an Hour panel with ~mistressofspam. If any of you are planning on going to DragonCon, stop on by! It will be a lot of fun.

I'll probably be quite quiet for the next week, as I will be immersed in the insanity that is DragonCon. Anyone who has attended will know what I mean. :D Hope to see some of you there!
