Thirdly - my 2013 Calendars are now for sale by the publishers! Yay! Get yours before it sells out like it did last year, hehe.

It will be a phenomenal art show with 200 of the world's best fantasy & scifi artists - I will be bringing lots of paintings & prints with me!

Let this also be a reminder that the words "Limited Edition" really does mean LIMITED and that they do run out! Many of my Lt. Ed. Canvases have already sold out, and many more are almost all gone =( If you have a favourite that you've been keeping an eye on, it might be a good idea to be sure to snag it while it's still available. Currently running low (the "Endangered Species List" if you will....) are:

"Captain Molly Morgan," "Three Witchy Sisters," "Off to See the Wizard," "Pink Lightning," "Alice in a Dali Dream," "Belle of Bonaventure," "Heart of Nails," and "Sea Storm".

Sea Storm in fact has sold out on my website and there is only ONE left before the #25 goes to auction, this is the #24 Lt. Ed. Canvas of Sea Storm HERE on eBay
(the last normal priced one before the last one goes to auction.). Limited Edition Hand Embellished canvases can be found at strangeling.com HERE (just click on the individual pictures to see if the canvas is still available) as well as in my eBay store HERE (just click on the Limited Edition Canvases section).

Click HERE to see the YouTube video for the Oracle of Shadows & Light!

PARTY AT POP GALLERY - At Downtown Disney's West Side - TONIGHT ONLY

You are invited to Jasmine's party at Pop Gallery Orlando - to celebrate the release of the USA Edition of the Oracle of Shadows & Light


All of the details can be found: At the Official Event Page - CLICK HERE

WHEN: Tonight - Tuesday, April 17th from 7:00pm-9:00pm

WHERE: At Pop Gallery Orlando at Downtown Disney West Side® at the Walt Disney World Resort (1504 E. Buena Vista Drive, Lake Buena Vista, FL 32830)

WHO:EVERYBODY is invited! Children are welcome! Parking, admission, etc. is FREE. No tickets neeed. FREE CHAMPAGNE for grownups! Jasmine (and Matt) will be there from 7:00pm-9:00pm

WHAT: It's a party! Not technically an art show per se (although there will be a ton of Jasmine's art as usual at the gallery!) - but rather a casual get-together - Artist Signing (feel free to bring stuff from home if you already have prints, statues, whatever you want signed), photo ops, chat with Jasmine - come say hi! Meet us, meet the gallery folks, have fun looking at art and checking out the new US Edition of the Oracle of Shadows & Light. FREE giveaway postcard prints (nobody goes home empty handed!). Special merchandise featuring "Dress of Storms" (the new cover image for the USA Edition) will be available as well as exclusive signed prints, and my usual array of Open & Limited Edition Canvas prints and other artwork of mine usually found at the gallery (including dogtags, DecalGirl gadget skins, and other fun stuff). And did I mention that I'll be bringing some new original mini paintings? ;)

WHY: April 17th is the official release date for the launch of the USA Edition of "The Oracle of Shadows & Light." (We'll make sure to have one opened up so you can look through it - it's awesome!). Simon & Schuster / Beyond Words / Simon Pulse are the new US publishers and they've done a great job. This is technically the same deck as you may have seen before (which was actually originally an Australian publication) but there are many significant changes in the US Edition - different cover art, longer book - even a few new cards! A definite MUST for collectors, and suitable for ALL AGES. This is also just a fun celebration to come check out the gallery & say hi, have a drink. Great date night idea (next door to the movie theatres, and all the fun at Downtown Disney & Disney World).

Two New Paintings from Jasmine! 2012 Calendar & Easter Vacation info..... [Apr. 2nd, 2012|09:13 am]
[mood |artisticartistic]

Hi Everybody!


Congratulations to Pip, Emmie & Tracey who were the WINNERS of my oracle deck giveaway! Thank you to all who entered! I will definitely be running other fun contests in the future.

Now for today - I have a couple of new paintings to show you! Firstly - A New Original Faces of Faery Original is now up for auction on eBay! Secondly - Poissons Volants: La Coiffure - a new painting - it actually sold immediately at Pop Gallery, so the original painting itself is not available, but the gallery has some amazing 36" BIG Limited Edition canvases that I have hand embellished in paint, already for sale.


Thirdly - VERY IMPORTANT - Matt & I are going to be out of town visiting family for Easter! Our last shipment before we leave is going to be Noon EST Tomorrow (Tuesday). If you have an unpaid order or want to place a new order, please do so before noon tomorrow if you'd like us to ship before we leave. Otherwise - no hurry - we'll be back on Monday the 9th (the day after Easter) and will resume shipping then.


Oh yes! One more thing - My 2012 Calendar - we were going through some boxes from a past show and discovered a couple of 2012 Calendars - now SOLD OUT and out of print and VERY hard (impossible) to find. My assistant Chris is going to auction them off in his eBay store and I have autographed every single picture in the calendar. After the year ends, it would make a great signed collection as 12 prints - or a very rare collector's item. Click HERE to see the Calendar Auction!

"Poissons Volants: La Coiffure" - New Painting & Canvas Prints!





$3200 Original Acrylic Painting - $695 for Hand Embellished Limited Edition Canvases. EDIT: The original painting itself sold immediately within minutes of arriving at the gallery, so it is no longer available. However - Pop Gallery Orlando at Downtown Disney (at the Walt Disney World in Florida) has GORGEOUS full sized 36"x12" Limited Edition Canvases of "Poisson Volants: La Coiffure" that I have hand embellished in acrylic paint, signed & numbered, and wrapped on extra-deep gallery stretcher boards so these are truly the next best thing!


Part of my "Poissons Volants" series ("Flying Fish" - combining my love with sea creatures and Rococo era portraiture - "La Coiffure" (the hairstyle!) features a beautiful maiden with an amazing powdered wig against a pastoral landscape amidst many magical winged fish. I simply love this painting!
