Over the last couple of days I have been working on creating a new "look" for my business. I have had a nagging voice in the back of my head that keeps saying "that as much as you like your logo, business cards, and identity. It just doesn't show what you actually do!" I think people would be surprised if handed one of my business cards and then to go view my art and discover it looks nothing like the art I have on my cards. My logo I love and will keep, but I am going to put it aside for now and do a more illustrated version of my bird, and add my little Emma. I think that it will portray more of what I am currently doing and be a much more relaxed and enjoyable card then the polished and proper identity I have been using the last year and a half. After I finished the art, I thought it was quite cute so I posted it as a print on my etsy shop.

New Look
Say "Hello" to the start of my new identity.

Free Shipping
To help make my birthday weekend just that much sweeter, I have decided to share my joy and offer free standard shipping on any item in my shop going any where around the globe. It's a good time to do a bit of fall shopping and dare I say Christmas shopping with no shipping charges for a few days only.

Shopping For Baby
I am so excited. My "Finding Winter Cardinal" was featured in "Shopping For Baby" a magazine out of Australia!
I had been contacted by the magazine last December asking if they could use my art, they didn't know if it would make it into the magazine but would send me a copy if it did. I have had a large number of my summer (their winter time) sales come out of Australia and with the arrival of my magazine I now know why. I am also currently in a childrens boutique in Australia too. Let's just say "I Heart Australia!" Thank you so much for the wonderful patronage!

Up Coming Exhibit
That's right, entered just in time to send two of my pieces off to an Art Exhibit. Got the news via e-mail this morning that the Art Institute would like to exhibit for the next 4 months in their gallery my new Spring Collection and Rainy Day Mate! Will be dropping them off this Saturday morning all framed and ready to hang. 
The reception is on Thursday September 10th from 5-7 if you would like to see the images in person.
