Good evening all!

Okay, tonight I have some very special auctions to share! I am auctioning off ACEO prints of ALL of my sexy jesters this week, and each jester auction will start at just $0.99, with my usual free shipping!
The two I currently have listed are as follows:




"Semi-Sweet" sexy jester pin up ACEO print auction




"Cupcakery" sexy jester pin up ACEO auction


Again, these are small prints (ACEOs are art trading cards measuring 2.5" x 3.5") of my original illustrations. Each one is slightly hand embellished, then cold laminated, signed on the back...lovely little collectors items! There will be more of them listed for auction in the days to follow, and again...each listing for these little teases will start at just $0.99!


Now, what else do I have up my sleeve...Oh, yes...remember the other day when I was showing off my little posable bunny dolls? Well, I have another set of dolls available, but these are...not as friendly LOL! They are my "L'il Reaper" felt dolls, and they come in sets of two with a reversible pouch...Instead of the wooden beads for heads, they have little skull beads! Creepy and kinda cute, too, I guess...It's all relative anyhow!
So, these "L'il Reaper" doll sets are listed in my zombietoes etsy shop; to see them up close, please follow the link below the picture:




"L'il Reaper" felt dolls with pouch


And lastly, but not least(ly) LOL!! My BRAND NEW dragon painting! I painted this one today, in about 4 hours, from start to finish...I have named him "Radioactive", and he is a little bit cute and a little bit tweaked out...must be all that radiation! (Don't worry, he is not ACTUALLY radioactive!) This dragon painting is small at 5" x 7", but is full of character! He is currently listed in my darklingemily etsy shop. To see detail pictures, read the little blurb I wrote for him, and perhaps even invite him into your home, please follow the link below the picture:




"Radioactive" original big eye fantasy painting


Now, I am off to get a fresh stack of zombie limericks books cut, folded, sewn, and ready to go out in the mail...Also, embellishing some more ACEO prints, and *trying* to get some new limericks written and illustrated...It is waaaay past time for a "volume 3"!

xo!

Sunday, Sunday...:)
Let me see here...what do I have to write about...Oh, yes! I have put up an ORIGINAL dragon painting on eBay (I listed him yesterday)..."Nite Lite" has been living in my darklingemily etsy shop, but I have moved him over to an eBay auction...Which is bonus for y'all, because he is a little less than half the price he was before! Of course, this is an auction format listing, and he starts at just $15.00, free shipping, so it could potentially go higher...But still, you could get a really good deal on this ORIGinal painting!
(blah blah blah!!) Anyway, "Nite Lite" is a great big green dragon, curled around an entire kingdom castle, because he is a tired dragon and wants to fall asleep (he even has heavy eyelids!) but he is a wee bit afraid of the dark! This piece is somewhat small, at 7" x 5" (acrylic on a canvas panel)...To see the auction listing, and perhaps even make a bid, please follow the link below the picture:




"Nite Lite" original dragon painting auction


I also have a handful of ACEO (art cards) listed for auction- all my ACEO auctions start at just $5.00 with free shipping- to see all the current listings on eBay, please click here!


Since my last post, I have managed to get my newest "sexy jester" pin up completed. "Pumpkin Pie" is a mixed media illustration, featuring one of my jesters sitting atop a great big piece of delicious pumpkin pie, and behind her is a really big pumpkin! I am not offering the original for sale (yet, perhaps eventually I will), and sadly she is not posted in my website art gallery yet, but if you would like a print or poster of her, please feel free to email me with your preference of poster (11" x 14" for $19.95) or limited edition print (8" x 10" hand embellished, numbered, + signed) and I would be more than happy to get one to you!
Anyway, here is a picture of her, all finished up:




* If you do order a print from me, the watermark will not be on there! It is for "publishing" purposed only ;)


If you would like to see all the other sexy jesters, they are living here in my "Sexy Art" sub gallery ;)


And...Some rather poopy news...I know a while back I mentioned something about having a tutorial I wrote (how to make your own journals) getting published in Faerie Magazine. Well, it was supposed to be published in the Summer 2009 issue (which was late getting to the presses, and did not in fact come out until September)...I am sad to announce that I am NOT in there.


I had a whole shpeel written out that was a bit of a "wag of the finger", but thought that maybe I should just be polite and professional and not even bother with crabbing about it. I will say this one thing, as a smart cookie, a reader, consumer, and lover of fantasy and all other art and literature...Faerie Magazine could be a better publication than it is, and quite frankly I am glad that they left me out of their magazine, seeing as I dont find them to be very on point.

Rest assured,the first shpeel was much less nice about all this, but even still, very tame compared to what I would really like to say...However, in the words of Forrest Gump, "That's all I have to say about that." ;)

I dont know what is wrong with me today, it is still very early in the evening and I am REALLY tired...Looks like it will be bedtime soon!


I have a brand new tiny dragon painting to show off tonight...It is an ACEO (art card, measures 3.5" x 2.5"), and an ORIGINAL at that!
"Bearded" is a wee little green dragon guy, with an apparent amount of wisdom; at least it looks as such by the way he is sitting, with his dragon beard!
He is an original acrylic painting on canvas, and again, this is an ACEO, so it is very small at 3.5" x 2.5". "Bearded" is up for auction on eBay, starting at just $5.00 and my usual free shipping! To see him and perhaps even make a bid, please follow the link below his picture:




"Bearded" original dragon ACEO painting


I also have listed some ACEO prints of two of my all time favorite paintings, "Raven 1" and "Raven 2"...They each start at just $5, to see them, please follow the link below their pictures:






Raven ACEO prints


I have finally gotten around to doing a big inventory check on my darklingemily etsy shop, and over the next few weeks I will be re-introducing a lot of journals, scrapbook sets, note cards, and other hand made paper goodies, in addition to my ever growing "Fantasy Art" section!

Now I have to inventory my littlezombietoes etsy shop, and add some more zombie stuff! I am afraid the Cartoon Aquarium series has overtaken my monsters LOL! But, that will have to wait until tomorrow, as I am dead tired :P


Oh! If any of you would like to see the commission I am currently working on, visit my Facebook WIP album here!

Too busy and frazzled to post a very long blog tonight...:(
BUT!! I did finish "Fire Dragon"- the paintings of elemental dragons series- and the listing is under the picture (of course!)




"Fire Dragon" original big eye fantasy painting


I really like this one, though I did struggle with it for many many layers before I was at all content with it...
Very candy corn/halloween...yet still warm. Don't touch, HOT! LOL! Okay, enough silliness, I am off to get some things in order and perhaps get some new t shirt designs started...!

Oh my gosh, I am SOOO sorry!

I have totally neglected my blog! Truth be told, I am a little bit bummin lately, so I just didn't have my regular gumption.

Anyhoo, I have a brand new painting tonight- it is my newest dragon!"The Star" is a rather Pagan-ish painting, featuring a bright blue, big eyed dragon
holding a pentagram as s/he flies through the air. To see the entire painting, read the description, and perhaps even purchase it, please visit the link below the picture:

Good evening!


I suppose I will start with the new eBay auction! This is not my usual ACEO auction, this is for an original 5" x 7" acrylic painting. Allow me to
introduce a new member of my Cartoon Aquarium series: "Jee" is a hyper little seahorse! I really just love painting these guys. Having started as a fluke, this series is turning into something I am pretty impressed with.
Anyhow..."Jee" is an original acrylic painting (5" x 7" on canvas board), up for auction on eBay starting at just $6.00 (and my usual free shipping)!
He would be honored to become a fixture in your home/office/garage/wherever, so please make him feel loved by placing your bid! To see the auction, please click on the link below his picture:




"Jee" original seahorse painting


Now, I have a brand new jester illustration, she is a bit of a pin up, and some of you have seen her already.
Her name is "Semi-Sweet", and she is absolutely sexy and beautiful! Inspired by some awesome people (you know who you are) and my love of chocolate...
Unfortunately for all of you, I am not offering the original for sale at this time (perhaps in the future)...BUT! I do have prints available in many sizes in
my deviantart profile! To see her and all the print size options, please click on the link below her picture:




"Semi-Sweet" prints on deviantart--look for the red "buy Print" option on the right side menu.

Here is the link to my entire deviantart profile (still in the beginning stages): http://darklingemily.deviantart.com


There appears to be a great big thunderstorm on the horizon, so I am going to try to get some online work done and hope I do not lose power...

HI!

Posting early because I am at the house, the internet is being &#*@&^#* &*@#*@^ at my studio again.
Super fast speed my a-hole. I'm sure it would be if I could even get online you stupid crap suckers. Bah!

BUT I refuse to let that but a thorn in my day. I'll just spend all day painting like I did yesterday (3 new ones! you'll have to wait to see them though).


So, this morning I have listed a new fairy painting- "Red Wine" is an original acrylic painting on a canvas panel (5" x 7"). She is the guardian of the grape vineyards!
Not sure where she came from, as I cannot drink red wine, the sediments make me swell up and I feel like I have been hit by a truck. Gross. But SHE is pretty!
To see detail pics and maybe even adopt her, please click on the link below the picture:




"Red Wine" original fairy painting


So...For now I guess I am going back to the studio to work. Put on some Eminem real loud and try real hard not to hate on technology.
Wish me luck. :)

There was a giant snapping turtle in the parkinglot this morning. I was worried that someone would run him over, cuz he blends right into the wet pavement.
But I was waaay too scared to get close to him. I know they walk slow, but when they snap, it's FAST and it HURTS! I just let him be, and envisioned a protective bubble around him.
He slowly moved onto the grass over the course of 4 hours. Cool looking guy, with a tail! Shoulda taken pictures, but he was freaked out enough already.
I also saw a whole bunch of ducklings yesterday. Freakin' adorable!

Anyhoo...onto business here. :) Tonight I have listed a recently finished painting (I am a little bit behind in my listings, or ahead in my stockpiling, depending on how you look at it).
"Attack of the Freckle Monster" is an original 16" x 20" acrylic painting, featuring a beautiful red headed fairy and a freckled dragon! To see detail pictures and read the story, please click on the link below the pic:




"Attack of the Freckle Monster" original fantasy painting


Also, a new eBay auction tonight: "Sweet Stare" is an original ACEO (art card). It is a mixed media mermaid, and I really like her. She is actually from my personal collection as opposed to my stockpile, but she told me she was sick of me and wanted a new home.
She said there were too many other mermaids around. So, "Sweet Stare" is up for a 7 day auction, starting tonight at just $3.00 (free shipping). To make your bid, please click on the link below the picture:




"Sweet Stare" mermaid art card


Now I am off to do whatever it is that keeps me occupied...I most likely will sit with my sketchbook and stare blankly for awhile, until I get hungry...

"Sweet Siren" original mermaid painting


Also, my website galleries have been updated with new art! Specifically my fantasy art and
miscellaneous art pages.

Currently I am working on a few commissions, and a painting with a mermaid, wizard, and dragon! All in one! So I will be getting back to that about now-ish.

Gah...

I know it's been awhile since my last post. I really need to get on the ball with that. I have no problem creating, but when it comes to listing and posting I get a little flighty.
Strange.
Right now I am watching X-Men the last stand, and trying really hard to concentrate on this post. I am craving something, too, and I dont know what, so that is really bothering me.
I think I might want a smoothie but I have no juice to put in it and I am NOT using water...Bah!
Anyhow, enough rambling. I actually DO have a reason to post tonight...wanna see it?
"The Conductor" is my newest dragon, and he is very LARGE at 18" x 24"! I am rather impressed witht he way he turned out, he's kinda manly, and dark, but in a good way, not a creepy or depressing way. Just like a shadow throwing lightning bolts, like the conductor of a wonderful symphony of storm (and yes, the pun IS intended, trying to be all clever with my titles).
He is up in my darklingemily etsy shop, and the description is kinda interesting (so go read it)...To view the detail pics and description, and perhaps even adopt him into your family, please click on the link below the picture:

Someone is exercizing or something in the other apartment and they are making a crapload of noise. I just turn up the TV. Doesnt help during the commercials, though, as I usually mute them. I HATE how they get 10x louder than whatever show you happen to be watching.
Like we are stupid or something. "Oh, I really should get a new Blackberry that flips closed, I really need that so I dont annoy my wife, even though the phone I have currently is perfectly fine and cost quite a bit to begin with..." %$&@#(@* Yes, I cannot understand your marketing ploys unless you jack up the volume and basically ram it down my throat.
All Hail The Mute Button!

Sorry to rant. I am WICKED PMS like any of you care or want to know. This is one of those times where I should stop myself from posting all this crap, go through, edit, make it boring and professional, and try not to offend anyone. Well, I have offended myself. So there.
(For those of you who do not know me all that well, I am being funny, not crabby. Well, I guess my humor comes out in full when I am in a "mood")

;)
