Papaya Henge

My old digital camera stopped working, so that traumatic event became the excuse I eventually used to buy TWO new digital cameras! The first one, which I received yesterday, is another 5MP point and shoot. Very small, great size to slip in my purse, goof off with, take people photos with, etc. To test out the macro function, I created Papaya Henge from a bag of mixed dried fruit that John donated to the cause.

The other digital camera, which should be arriving sometime tomorrow, is bigger, blacker, heavier, more impressive, has one of those large glass lens thingies for wide angle and telephoto shots, and can shoot super-macro shots from ONE centimeter away from the subject. With that camera, you’d be able to see the little papaya druids chanting in their macrolithic Papaya Henge! For now though, you’ll just have to use your imagination.

It’s just hypnotic it is! Just remember to blink every so often.

Egad and Little Fishes

Sorry it’s been so long between posts around here! I just seem to be doing a lot of busy work lately. No thanks to Cafepress, since they just added a ton of new colored t-shirts to their product line up! Do you know how long it takes to add new shirts to every section in a shop with over 10K products…. on slow dialup? I don’t think even NASA can calculate that number. Not to mention I have THREE shops, not just one. *sigh* On a plus note, John was in town today with his laptop and finally found an open wifi connection he could use – had a 36mbps rate – nice! Might end up hanging out in Foster’s Freeze, ordering milkshakes and fries and adding tshirts over the weekend – sounds like fun, no?

I also have a lot of new designs I’ve been creating lately – they’re just spilling out and bottlenecking behind our narrow bandwidth. Artsy ones and funny ones and yadda yadda. In honor of St. Valentine’s Day today, I’ll jump ahead in classic marketing style and feature my Celtic design for St. Patrick’s Day – ha! Best part is that you can wear a tshirt with this design on it when it’s NOT St. Patrick’s Day too, unlike tees with shamrocks, leprechauns, and green beer. (Never had green beer – had a green bagel once though.) Anyway – click the green circle to get your hip, fashionable in ancient style, St. Patrick’s Day gear – LOL.

Sometimes I Just Think Funny Things

(to quote “Arthur”) … and then I end up putting them on t-shirts in my shop.

Anywho… I’ve got two new humor designs up in my shop. The first one I have to give Tom credit for the inspiration, and the second one just sort of happened, but don’t worry, I’m getting professional help for it. 😉 Click on the sample image below to see all the tees available with that design.

“Forget Road Rage. I suffer from a highly sarcastic case of Road Snark.” (also comes in buttons and bumper stickers)

“I’m not a psychologist but I play one in my mind.”

Online Visual Artists Forum

A new forum recently opened up for visual artists who are presenting and selling their art online. It already has a good group of people sharing quality information, some excellent comparing and contrasting of existing sites/services too, so I thought I’d share the link for any of you who might also be interested: Online Visual Artists Forum.
