Work In Progress Wednesday - Gaia



Working on a new Gaia painting. This is the sketch that I'll be painting over the next few days. Sorry about the annoying watermarks, my stuff's been showing up around the intertubes cropped so my single watermark is missing and uncredited, so this is what I'm doing now. *le sigh* I also didn't post the completely cleaned up scan for that reason, in case anyone is curious about the weird white smudges.

Once she's painted, I'll be offering a limited run of prints. The Etsy shop is closed right now while I decide if I'd like to continue to use them, so I'll most likely be doing orders via email for her with paypal invoices and such so I can skip the middle man. Just an F.Y.I, since some of you have asked if and when I was going to be offering up new Momma Earth art. ;)

P.S. Thank you all for your encouraging words, thoughts and prayers. It means so much to me that so many people from all over this beautiful Earth are looking out for and thinking of me. This isn't going to be a simple or quick journey, but I know I'll make it through no matter what may happen. Sometimes just the writing and venting can be cathartic. Thank you all for listening and for being there. *hugs*

  4. She is so beautiful & serene! Just. Wow.

    I do hope you are finding some peace with your journey. Family is such a strange and difficult ecosystem to thrive in at times. Sometimes creating space away is the healthiest thing to do. You have a great support system in your sweet hubby and your gods - that's for sure!

    Hugs & love to you.

  5. Oh - also - I'm still coveting that pumpkin patch in glass you made. When Gaia is done and prints are made and ready to sell, could you contact me? I'll buy a print and the pumpkins (if they are still available.)

    Etsy has been lacking lately and I noticed a few people are moving to alternate sites. I'm weighing my options at the moment, but am interested to know what you decide.

  6. I love her Danni..Especially for earth day which really is every day! She's so benevolent looking.

    I'm not an artist or don't have anything on Etsy but I heard Artfire is good.

  7. I love this picture. I also appreciate the watermarks. I didn't want to use them either for a long time, but it is actually fun sometimes trying to get the watermark itself to blend in with the piece. Yours is great.
