Etsy, here I come!

Yay! I just posted 5 cards onto Etsy. If you would like to purchase them, then go here: http://www.westendgirl.etsy.com/ You can get all of them for only 20 dollars. Otherwise they are 5 dollars each.

I'm really not fond of computer copies and printouts of artwork. So for now I've decided to create the cards by hand. Yes, I know it's a little daunting, but it helps me to stay creative by constantly having to physically ink and color stuff. It will keep me in creative shape. I'm sure after a while I'll get tired of them and make digital copies of them instead, but until then I'd rather do it the old fashioned way. I mean, why would you want to pay 5 dollars for a computer printout? Ha, posters don't count.

Anyway, the five cards are the first in the Line of Hipster Girl series. I got the idea from one picture I drew last year, I think. And the idea was about a girl who looks like a big cross between gothic lolita/geisha and to include hipster fads like owls and strawberries and deer. Or a cracked out doll, hehe. But I think they have turned out pretty well and I can't wait to see what sort of response I get. Here are the pictures from the cards I'm selling so far:

New Layout, yaaaaay!

Okay so I've deleted my animation news blog and decided that if any juicy news comes up, then I'll post it here. Too bad though, because I thought 'animation for your consideration' was an excellent title. But one blog is far easier to maintain. The new layout design will have to make up for a june post, although I may be able to squeeze in one more entry before the end of the month. The new layout looks pretty good if I do say so myself!
