Hand-lettering for this week’s class in Make Art That Sells.
I went with a series of antique typewriter-styles of lettering, focusing on “politeness” with varying salutations and RSVPs.
Have a favorite?
Ode to the American Doily
I have a new Americana-style collection, based on my love of doilies and antique lace.
It’s currently available as paper goods in my Zazzle shop, but I think it would be great for ceramic and glassware as well. Please reach out to me or my licensing agent, Liz Wain, if you’d like to discuss licensing the collection. Thank you!
Bull Sketch now available at Kirkland's!
I am so pleased to have my Bull Sketch at Kirkland’s!
It’s a large framed print on canvas, and it looks great. (:
Farm Animal Pillows launched via Creative Co-op
At the Atlanta Market this past January, more of my Watercolor Animal collection was launched — pillows! Thank you, Creative Co-op!
I received a couple samples, and they look great. Excellent quality pillow, too. Yep, stoked again.
What's been happening this year: Update 2 of 6
I started licensing my work! So stoked!
Last fall, after an extremely helpful call with Giuseppe Castellano of The Illustration Department, I decided to revisit the resources in SCBWI's "The Book." I focused on a small group of art directors and agents that I'd like to work with, and I sent out emails to all of them. I am now fortunate to be represented by Lori Nowicki and Liz Wain of Painted Words licensing, and I couldn't be more grateful.
