I was so busy that I forgot to post the final two pieces of the Zodiac series here! Sagittarius has already been sold;



...and the auction for Virgo ends this evening;



And I have already designed a large poster with a compilation of these images that is for sale in my CafePress store, as well as a calendar that displays the signs roughly approximating the months with which they correlate. You can take a look at them by clicking the image;



Any feedback on these products would be great! I plan to release other products with these images as well, as I have time to get them set up.

I've got a couple more Zodiac ACEO paintings up for sale, Aries and Leo. Only two more to complete the series!


Title: Aries
Medium: Oil pastel and colored pencil on Bristol vellum
Size: 2 1/2" x 3 1/2"
Status: For Sale (Click image to go to auction)



Title: Leo
Medium: Oil pastel and colored pencil on Bristol vellum
Size: 2 1/2" x 3 1/2"
Status: For Sale (Click image to go to auction)


Also, I got a bit of practice doing my latest art form, Mehndi;

I have never used Henna as a medium before but there is a very natural flow to it that I find enjoyable. I'm sure I'll get better in time, but here are a few of my earliest attempts. I've been not only practicing the techniques involved with using the medium, but also improving the recipe to get darker stains that last better. I've got a pretty good batch mixed up right now that stains to a dark cherry color, and promises to last for a couple of weeks at least. To see more pictures, look behind the cut;( Pictures Here )
