It's Monday, which means it's time for another State of the Artist update! :)
Weekly Words
Genius is another word for magic, and the whole point of magic is that it is inexplicable. - Margot Fonteyn, 1919 - 1991
I think we all need a little magic in our lives.
Current Project
Whoo! The Holiday cards arrived at the house on Friday (well, one box... there was a printing/shipping error, so the order was split and the second half will arrive by Wednesday) and they look great! I'll probably be spending most of the week addressing cards in batches since there were so many respondents.
I'm so excited, you guys! There's a lovely gloss finish on the primary image side, and the colors look fantastic! I will definitely post when they go in the mail, that way people can be on the lookout for them.
The Monthly Postcard Subscription Project is up and running. You can subscribe for 3, 6, or 12 months to receive an exclusive, limited-edition original artwork postcard in your mailbox for less than the cost of 2 Starbucks lattes a month! The Subscription Service is open to US and International subscribers. You can find out more information at the subscription page here!
Shop Silvertales
Over the Thanksgiving weekend, I ended up drawing what I think is the cutest thing I think I've ever drawn...
... and he's available on multiple items in the store! He's on mugs, t-shirts, bags, skins, cases, and cards. If you'd like to see him on something else Zazzle offers, let me know!
If you have suggestions for more cute animal things let me know, he needs some friends!
Zazzle is having a fantastic Cyber Monday sale with 50% off cards and postcards, 30% off mugs, 20% off t-shirts and bags, $10 off sleeves and cases, and 15% off everything else! The code is valid through November 26th until 11:59pm PT on everything from any store, no matter how much you buy or what store it comes from.
Don't forget to check out Zazzle Blackwhich gets you free standard shipping for a year within the continental US, Alaska, and Hawaii for a flat, one-time $10 fee along with exclusive discounts throughout the year.
Near Future
The Near Future sees me spending much of the upcoming week filling out holiday cards! This is the part of the project that I usually forget about... the hours spent hand-addressing and writing notes on all the postcards requested. O.o
I'll be splitting that with working on a recent commission project and getting ready for the holiday insanity that is family visits and trips and holiday get-togethers, along with making sure I have everything together for the launch of next year's Postcard Subscription Project and the Sketch-A-Day Project along with OhayoCon.
Thank you for joining me for another State of the Artist update! :D
