About Me:Oh, geeze...Me, um, well, I am currently a full time artist and gardener...I work out of my house and have a small studio in my bedroom...I am a huge animal lover (two cats and a dog, tons of birds and wildlife on my land that I am a surrogate mother to)...I like fantasy a lot, and dark stuff. I have this weird obsession with zombies. I am the oldest of three girls and a Capricorn. I'll think of more later and update again...It's hard for me to talk about myself, I guess.
Music:Anything metal, 80s rock, hip hop, rap, some punk...I like oldies a lot, I pretty much like everything, even country.
Movies:Zombie movies, especially the bad ones (but NOT Zombie Nation. This is the lamest movie ever made and if you've never seen it, dont bother!) Some of my PERSONAL favorites are A Clockwork Orange, American History X, The Rock, Con Air, the olde version of Willy Wonka...
TV:Not too much, but...Robot Chicken, The Simpsons, Futurama, Family Guy, Axe Men, Intervention, Reno 911, and South Park.
Books:Lets go with authors on this one...Roald Dahl, Dr. Suess, JRR Tolkien of course, Clive Barker, Stephen King, Shakespeare (King Lear is my fav), Irvine Welsh, Chuck Palanuik...
Hobbies:Gardening and art (also what I make a living doind so it works out nicely), spending time in the woods, reading, sewing, playing with animals, keeping myself out of trouble (a good hobbie to have)
Vices:Smoking and the occasional drinking (whiskey and scotch), not calling my friends back right away, sometimes I bite my nails, and I definitely eat WAY too much chocolate.
Virtues:I am extremely patient (to a fault). I listen well, I learn fast, I am willing, determined, and have pretty descent self esteem, I suppose.
Heroes:My mum, my stepmum, pretty much anyone who would risk their lives to save another...

Yup, I got new canvas pads, linoleum cutting blocks (for prints and raised papers...), some new grey pens (finally!) and some other random stuff...Oh! New paint! LOL. I'm like a kid in a candy store...
So, I have finally put up three different sets of bookplates...Ten bookplates with 5 different images (2 of each) per set...for only $3.50, free shipping!! Please click on the banner below to see the different sets:
Also, a new dark fairy collage listed on eBay today..."Peacock Pixie" was previously residing in my etsy store for over $30, but since I am cleaning, I have put her up for a 7 day auction starting at just $9.99! To view her listing and details, and perhaps even adopt her into your family, please click on the picture below:
So, I've been carving lino blocks all afternoon, but had to stop because I ran out of ideas. Well, for the time being anyhow. After my internet duties, I am sure to end up back at my desk sketching out ideas. Soon I will have some greeting card and other stationary and embellishment options in my etsy store. I am also working on a new set of resin bookmarks, as most of the ones I had in there have sold...:)
I am feeling a serious pull away from the collage and towards more painting...But I still have a lot of pieces already made. So no worries...Plus I can always be commissioned! But for those of you who thrive on the mixed media, get while the getting's good. There. Fair warning.
So, I suppose that is about it for now. I'm gonna go back to work.
Hello all... Well, it seems to be mermaid madness in my studio...I have a BUNCH of mermaids listed on eBay, up for three day auctions; most of them are starting at just 99 cents, so bid before they are all gone! Please click on the banner below to view all my current eBay listings, and many more to come in the next week, all of which will be three or five day auctions!
Also, my etsy store is chalk full of goodies...I have a new journal listed tonight, click on the pic to view the details:
I have added a new category to my etsy shop as well, "Book Accessories". Currently all I have is a handful of fantasy bookmarks, all priced at $3.50 with free shipping! I will soon have book plates listed, along with some other stationary and scrapbooking goodies for all you letter writers and crafters...:) To view my new category and some pretty fantabulous bookmarks, please click on the banner below:
What else have I been up to...lets see...we've been having crazy thunderstorms nearly every day, so my poor flowers are in no condition to photograph at the moment. :( They are all waterlogged save teh few who just love it. I'm sort of able to move around my studio after sending a bunch of art out, but I still have so much that needs a safe happy home...arg, if I had more wallspace, I could just hang it. I suppose I will have to start thinking about craft fairs soon with all this stuff lying around.
In the next few days I will hopefully have a bunch of never before seen pieces to share with you all...It is a series of larger works that I am STILL working on hanging at a local cafe. :| I will be sure to unveil them as a complete show, together in a slideshow or some such...
Okay, I am off to get some pondering and planning done, so I bid you all adieu. ~Em
Okay... Lots of art!! I have a new listing on eBay tonight...it's a three day auction only, so if you like it, better bid quick! Starting at only 99 cents! "The Mouse's Melody" is a one of a kind mixed media aceo featuring a tiny fairy dressed in magenta silk playing the trumpet for a grey mouse. A sweet little picture indeed! To view the auction, please click on the picture below:
I will be listing mainly three day auctions for a while, but will always be sure to post that! I have a new trinket box up in my etsy store...it's a beautiful little wooden box painted in a deep rose, and features a enclosed shadow box with an origianl tiny fairy sculpture! To view the listing and more pictures, please click on the picture below:
Also remember that I am having a giant sale in my etsy store!! Go check it out and buy yourself a gift!
Well, I will have a better update in the next few days once I get my head on straight. I have not been sleeping as much as I need to lately. Nitey nite, ~Em
Thanks so much, I have to admit it is one of my favorites too. I am actually getting made into tshirts and tanktops to have at Faerieworlds and on my website :-) (www.lennonstudio.com)
