Beckett Art

Yay, the art I ordered from Beckett Gladney's Etsy store arrived! It actually arrived a while ago, expertly packaged and looking even more gorgeous in real life than on the computer screen.

Beckett's added more art and photos to her shop, by the way, so I encourage you all to go visit RIGHT NOW. Check out this gorgeous batik case:



She's labelled it as a knitting needle case, but I can so easily see other uses for it.



My Blatherings revamp is coming along as I tweak here and there. Still working on the header.

My new card designs have arrived!

Woohoo, my new Blush card designs have arrived! Blush had commissioned me to do six more for the Ohi line. My cards are now being distributed in the UK, Japan, France, Australia, the U.S. and Canada.

I've reopened my Etsy store after its long hiatus to make these cards available. I've also reduced prices on all the paintings as well as making the full set of all 16 cards available at steep discount (when you buy all of them at once).

My letter of the day:

i just wanted to tell you how much we love this card...we live in toronto but I actually bought it in South Yorkshire on a holiday to visit my grandma. We bought it because my three year old looks JUST like that, and recognized herself right away. What a surprise to find that card when I was browsing my "shoplocal" toronto thing! My gran lives in a really small place called wath upon dearne. I couldn't stop myself from letting you know. We've got the card framed on in our living room. - Sonia

NOTE: If you happen to see my card in a shop anywhere (offline), please do let me know! And if you take a photo of it in the shop, I'd love to post as well as helping promote the shop -- so please also include info about the store location. Thanks!
