Finished Friday!

So what have I finished this week? Only one painting sadly, but I did manage to blow out and string a few more eggs for etching! I really need to move out to the country though, this whole 4 chickens per back yard thing (OK so I have 5, shhhhh!) is making for slow egg production. The fact that it's winter doesn't help either. But I digress, here's my finished painting:

This painting is a mixture of oil paints and oil pastels.

I don't have any pictures of my eggs, but there are about a dozen that are ready to be etched. And I do have a few more projects that are in the works. I can't wait until its warm outside again so I can spray paint again. 

In other news, I made it into another treasury on Etsy =) You can find it here, <3 My Whimsical heart <3. This is the piece that made it into the treasury: 

Butterfly Glass Candle Holder

I hope all your projects are going well this week!

Painting And Pricing

Since I'm new to selling anything I make, I'm still trying to figure out the right pricing. Lots of people favorite my items, but I've had very few sales. So I think I'm going to go through my Etsy shop and reprice a few items. Maybe that will help. I also need to paint faster so I have more things to add every day, and I need to start listing glass projects.

There just aren't enough hours in the day to get every thing done I want to!

It's also a bit cold for painting right now. Since my favorite medium is spray paint, I can't exactly paint in the house. I need to set up a few heaters in the garage so I can bring out my paints =) I've been working on a few projects with oil paints, but I get frustrated with how long oil takes to dry.


But anyway, here's a sneak peek of my latest painting:

I know it looks like a bit of a mess right now, but just wait till it's finished! Now I'm off to my day (I mean night) job!

Welcome!
