Hi everyone!

I'm back from my trip! Despite rough seas, we had a wonderful time down in the Caribbean, playing pirate. Now I'm back, and of course - I have new artwork for you! All orders placed or paid for while I was gone have now shipped. Tonight I have TWO new original paintings for you tonight, and four new ACEO cards! In addition I have the eBay SALE prints (only $9.99) for "Loup-Garou: La Tristesse", "Carnivorous Bouquet Fairy," and "Mermaid with a Golden Dragon." Both originals I have tonight are from my Faces of Faery series are starting at just ONE PENNY on eBay, as do the new ACEOs.

Now - the latest from my "Faces of Faery" series - TWO new originals tonight! To see them both, along with my other currently available ORIGINAL paintings, click below:

All Jasmine's Currently Available ORIGINAL PAINTINGS

First is "Faces of Faery #73" - she is the 73rd painting in my Faces of Faery series - a beautiful pale creature with AMAZINGLY vibrant violet eyes, peering from behind some beautiful moths. And the original painting itself starts at ONE PENNY on eBay! Faces of Faery is a very popular series of paintings I've been working on featuring beautiful faces from all corners of the world of Faery (and fairytales, and fantasy in general!). Like all of my Faces of Faery - she is READY TO HANG - you don't need a frame - 6"x6" in size and on 2" gallery style cradled masonite, original acrylic painting (not a print of any kind). The great thing about my "Faces of Faery" series of paintings is that they are all the same size and are intended to hang beautifully in a group as well as on their own - for example they make fabulous groupings of several paintings together (once I hung up nine of them on my wall in a square shape and it looked fantastic!). She's up for a 10-day auction ending the evening of Wednesday, February 17th at 6:22pm Central Time, starting at one penny and you can see her here:

"Faces of Faery 73" ORIGINAL PAINTING

Next is "Faces of Faery #74" - this one might be my favourite Faces of Faery painting so far because it has a DRAGON! Featuring a large golden eyed girl with her tiny blue dragonling pet! ! She is the 74th painting in my Faces of Faery series - and is also ONE PENNY on eBay! Like all of my Faces of Faery - she is READY TO HANG - you don't need a frame - 6"x6" in size and on 2" gallery style cradled masonite, original acrylic painting (not a print of any kind). She's also up for a 10-day auction ending the evening of Wednesday, February 17th, at 6:28:pm Central Time, starting at one penny and you can see her here:

Hi everyone!

I have a big beautiful new original painting for you tonight - last one before I leave for my trip in the morning, hehe. Starting at just ONE PENNY on eBay (and prints are up already too!)! A creepy little CUTIE - 12x16 original - "Babirusa Skull". In addition I have yet another BRAND NEW series of figurines up at the Hamilton Collection, available now! They are a whole series of ANGELS (yes, my very first angel collection) called my "Power of the Healing Spirit" collection (each one has a different calming/healing theme with lovely sparkling gems and fathery wings).

Okay! The new original paintings....to see ALL of my currently available original paintings, including the new ones click below:

All Those Original Jasmine Paintings are HERE

Just scroll down past my vacation disclaimer - and remember, I'll be back home before all my auctions end, so there will be no delay on shipping or anything like that. Bid as usual =)

Now, let me introduce "Babirusa Skull" Ready to hang - 2" deep cradled masonite it is is an ORIGINAL acrylic painting measuring 16"x12". I love this painting! There is a cute babirusa (a very strange little mammal with amazing tusks) that Matt & I visit a lot at a park near our home. Babirusas are kinda like little piggies, but thei have these crazy tusks that actually grow straight through their nostrils. Anyway, we were talking about how wicked their skulls must look - I found a museum site and indeed - their skulls are way cool. So I painted a creepy little girl holding one on her lap - there's a lot of strange stuff going on in this one, just humour me on this one, lol. And yes, to give everybody a chance, she is starting at just ONE PENNY! It's up for a 10-day auction ending the evening of Saturday, February 13th at 7:34 PM Central Time, and you can see her here:

"Babirusa Skull" 12"x16" ORIGINAL PAINTING

Now, as I promised - I'm making the "Babirusa Skull" prints available NOW. If the original isn't in your budget, grab one of these! These are BIG prints - starting at just $13.80 - and guess what? You can add on custom mats, frames, glass, etc. however you want it. And you can choose the paper type - glossy, matte, canvas, poster, whatever. Small sizes are available as well as HUGE sizes - up to 70"x52" size (that is taller than I am!)

Hi everyone!

Some important & exciting news to tell you tonight (namely a new division of my art business featuring PENNY AUCTIONS FOR STATUES!), an introduction for one of my new employees, and also some brand new #01 Canvas prints up for auction (Carnivorous Bouquet Fairy, Blood Orchid, Seashell Beauty, Mermaid with a Golden Dragon, Ghost of a Rose - all at one penny)!

Okay - the first big news. I have a new employee to introduce - his name is Chris - he's also my brother-in-law! Married to my sister Amber (and stay-at-home father of my nephew, baby Fox!) - Chris now works for me fulltime. He lives up by my secondary studio in Kansas City that we built last year as an art studio/shipping center whe we're up visiting family in the midwest. Anyway - he's a great guy and is taking on the responsibility of helping make more of my artwork & merchandise available for direct purchase. Firstly - he is going to be in charge a new endeavour of mine - "penny auctions" for my statues! You guys keep asking me, "Hey - you sell other things of yours at auctions starting at a penny - why not your statues?" Previously this reason has always been simple - Matt & I don't have the time or the room for such things, we are up to our necks in prints and paintings already. But now that Chris up in the Kansas location is working now - he is officially in charge of such things. My new statue penny auctions will be sold on eBay with Chris's eBay seller ID: magical_figurines - in fact - you might want to go add magical_figurines to your eBay favourite seller's list, or just bookmark this following link since many new things will be coming there:

Click HERE To see Magical Figurines (be sure to favourite it!)

As both my employee and a family member, Chris will be able to provide some very special things in the future that are hard to come by - statues with boxes that I have autographed personally, the occasional production samples or advance items, one of a kind painted pieces, prototypes, rare or discontinued items, fun stuff like that which are very difficult to find elsewhere (or impossible!). I'll keep you updated - but definitely bookmark that link above or add magical_figurines to your favourite sellers list through eBay. I'm of course happy to confirm everything sold there is 100% authentic and being sold directly by me & Chris (shipped from our midwest location). I'm also happy to announce that Chris will ship ANYWHERE IN THE WORLD, making some things available for the first time in many countries (as long as you don't mind paying for Airmail shipping of course, hehe). Please note - items from Chris can't be shipped in the same package as things ordered from strangeling or strangeling.com because he lives in Kansas and I live in Florida, lol =)

Chris has already listed a couple of auctions - both starting at just ONE PENNY on eBay - some rare limited edition large statues of my "Lost...but Not Worried" and "Captive Fairy" - both of them new in the box, and in fact I have autographed the boxes myself! To see them both, just click below:

Chris' Auctions - Magical Figurines

Or directly - here is "Lost...but Not Worried" - limited to just 2,000 ever made - 6" high, heavy resin statue, box signed by me - seven day auction ending Monday, February 8th at 8:04 PM Central Time, starting at a penny:

Hi everyone!

I have a new painting to show you tonight! I am simply in love with this one "Cello Storm" - it has everything, a cello, a cat, beautiful scenery, a thunderstorm....and I have prints up already too! Also just a head's up - I will be out of town later on this week - shouldn't affect much, but I just like to let you all know.

*************************

Quick note: As I mentioned, I will be out of town (out of the country) from Thursday, February 4th through Sunday, February 7th. This will not affect ANY of my auctions, I won't be leaving until current ones have ended, and the others won't end until I get back home. So this will not affect bidding in any way - no worries. My eBay store (ie, just the prints) will go into vacation mode while I'm gone, but again - actual auctions (canvases, originals, aceos, etc.) will not be affected, so please (please!) bid while I'm gone, I'll be home in plenty of time to ship! If you currently owe me money, or want to get any last minute orders shipped - please be sure to have payment in to me by Wednesday, February 3rd at NOON Central Time, and we'll ship before we leave. Otherwise - no hurry - I'll ship after I get home on Sunday. No big deal - just three days - I just won't have much computer access while I'm gone so I like to let everybody know ahead of time. And of course, my Zazzle store keeps going even when I'm out of town - so feel free to order there in the meantime! Questins? Just email me!

*************************

All right, the new original painting! "Cello Storm" is the title -a gothic beauty playing the cello - out in the rolling fields - playing feverishly as a lightning storm approaches..... I adore Rococo furniture and had fun juxtaposing a magnificent sofa in the outdoor setting. The little black cat is my own baby Azrael, who has the habit of appearing in my paintings. I listed to a lot of classical cello music whilst painting this piece, as well as some Rasputina and Matson Jones, hehe. This is a BIG painting too - 24" high by 18" wide! 2" deep cradled masonite panel, it is ready-to-hang - no frame needed. And oh yes, it starts at just ONE PENNY up on eBay to give everybody a chance! It'll be up for 10 days, ending the afternoon/evening of Thursday, February 11th at 5:32PM (long after I'm back home!) and you can see her here:
