Introducing Strangeling SHOES! Also - Important Vacation Ordering Info, Zazzle T-Shirt SALE! [Jul. 3rd, 2009|10:16 pm]
Hi everyone!

Some news & info for you tonight - firstly I'll be out of town next week and had some important information regarding orders & shipping, then secondly I wanted to let you know about my new line of Ked Shoes up at Zazzle (these are gorgeous!). Also Zazzle is running a SALE on shirts for this weekend only, and I wanted to give you the discount code!

Yes - Matt & I will be out of town (camping and exploring ancient ruins), and AWAY FROM THE COMPUTER! However, none of the original art auctions I'm running (for the original paintings or ACEO cards) will be affected - so please bid! Orders already paid by July 5th at noon EST will have already shipped, no worries! We'll be shipping out at the crack of dawn Monday before we leave, so you need to get any payments in by noon on Sunday.

This means that my eBay Store (and Etsy shop) is in "Vacation Mode". Don't worry - all the listings are just hiding temporarily. They will pop back as soon as they get back home. PLEASE feel free to bid as usual - none of my active auctions will be affected in any way - I'll be back in gear in plenty of time to ship with no delays. You may notice that about 1,000 of my store listings have "disappeared" - don't worry, they will magically "reappear" as soon as I'm back. You can still order through www.strangeling.com but orders won't be processed until I get back. I should be back online by FRIDAY, JULY 10th! All email, computer correspondence, processing & shipping will resume on FRIDAY, JULY 10th! Thank you for your patience - in the meantime got lots of stuff up while I'm gone - and again - bid with confidence - I'll be back shortly! And for those watching her - "Golden Mermaid" ends tomorrow night and I can ship her before I go if you are lucky enough to win her and send Paypal ;)

Jasmine's JOURNALS (with matching pens!) - and NEW BIG Pacific Trading Statues! [Jul. 1st, 2009|10:52 am]
Hi everyone!

New Pacific Trading products for you today! Statues & journals - very exciting!

I will have a new update soon with new artwork as well, I just thought in the meantime you may want to check out the new merchandise!

To see all of my currently available ORIGINAL paintings - click below (some are ending soon!!):

Jasmine's Original Paintings

Okay - now on to the new stuff! First off - the new JOURNALS! These journals are gorgeous - almost like a resin statue that is a journal (if that makes sense!). These are made by Pacific Trading and are available NOW on their website (they will ship next month, so get your order in now!). There are five designs - "Fairy Voodoo," "Devilish Fairy," "My Three Kitties," "Bat Wings," and "Mermaid of the Deep". Each journal is hand painted resin on the front, and each comes with a free matching pen for you to write with! Wonderful for journals, address books, spellbooks, etc.! To see the journals, click below:

Jasmine's Journals



Next are the new STATUES from Pacific Trading. These are very different in one BIG way - they are MUCH larger (more than twice as big) as my other Pacific Trading figurines/ornaments from my Strangeling series. Basically they have taken five of my most popular Strangelings ("Poppy Garden," "The Secret of Notre Dame," "Red Ribbon Fairy," and "Golden Guitar Fairy," - and they have made them twice as tall and have sculpted them with more detail (the wings on "Notre Dame" are a whopping 9" wide, making it one of my largest statues to date). Rather than being the hanging ornaments as in the Strangelings series, these are more along the lines of STATUES that are made to sit on a shelf, or display, or knicknack wall, etc. These are fantastic! You can order them online at Pacific Trading today! They will be shipping out next month, so be sure to get your order in early.



Jasmine's BIG Statues from Pacific Trading

Back from the Ozarks! New penny paintings, $1.70 Postcards, $5.95 Statues...... [Jun. 29th, 2009|05:45 pm]
Hi everyone!

I'm back from the Ozarks, had a great time visiting my family down there. I'm back with my paintbrush in hand though of course and I have TWO brand new original paintings for you - the next two in my "Faces of Faery" series - "Faces of Faery 20" and "Faces of Faery 21"! Both are ready-to-hang and starting at just one penny! In addition I wanted to give you the good news about some of my figurines in the LTD Catalog (my best selling figurines only $5.95 each!) and also some new T-Shirts & POSTCARDS (postcards are only $1.70 each!) up at Zazzle! So - this is a particularly good update for those of you on a budget, or who are bargain-hunting!

First off are the new original paintings - "Faces of Faery 20" and "Faces of Faery 21" are the titles - number twenty and twenty-one - in my painting series called "Faces of Faery". Each is an ORIGINAL PAINTING (not a print of any kind). Faces of Faery all feature beautiful faery-inspired creatures, these are no exception. The great thing about my "Faces of Faery" series of paintings is that they are all the same size and are intended to hang beautifully in a group as well as on their own - for example they make fabulous groupings of several paintings together Like all Faces of Faery each is 6"x6" on a 2" deep cradled masonite panel that is READY TO HANG and needs no frame

"Faces of Faery 20" features a rather sad/worried fairy girl with hair the colour of straw, and hazel eyes. She is so beautiful! She's up on eBay starting at ONE PENNY for a 10-day auction ending the evening of Thursday, July 9th at 5:29PM Central Time. You can see her below:



"Faces of Faery 20" 6"x6" ORIGINAL PAINTING

"Faces of Faery 21" features a very cute fairy girl with a kinda grumpy expression OBVIOUSLY up to some mischief! She has dark hair with brilliant red stripes in it, and startlingly blue eyes. What a cutie! She's up on eBay starting at ONE PENNY for a 10-day auction ending the evening of Thursday, July 9th at 7:00PM Central Time. You can see her below:



"Faces of Faery 21" 6"x6" ORIGINAL PAINTING

To see all of my currently available original paintings (including Faces of Faery 19, Golden Mermaid, and my magnificent folding altarpiece painting - Eve Triptych, click below:

All Jasmine's Available Original Paintings

Next up - four of my best selling statues - "Fairy Voodoo," "My Three Kitties," "Devilish Fairy," and "Skull Stealer" - from my Strangeling Fairies series made by Pacific Trading - are now available from the wonderful LTD Catalog! And they're only $5.95 each! An unbelievable bargain - if you are looking to round out your collection or just START your collection, you can't do it cheaper than this - yes, $5.95 each for the official figurines.

They are on the LTD Catalog website below to order online:

Jasmine's $5.95 Figurines from the LTD Catalog!

All Jasmine's Zazzle Stuff

I've been publishing some of my paintings on Zazzle as postcards. This is especially for all of you who have been asking for more inexpensive options to display & collect my paintings. Well here you go - one postcard only costs $1.70! They're well made too, very nice. You can frame them as pictures or even just send them in the mail as regular postcards. You can't beat $1.70! When looking at the postcards for some reason it often defaults to a quantity of 8 - just change the quantity to "1" or however many you'd like to order, hehe - you don't have to order 8. I have several postcards up there now and will be adding TONS more in the weeks & months to come. To see all of my currently available Zazzle postcards (only $1.70) - click below:

Jasmine's POSTCARDS on Zazzle - only $1.70

Next are the new T-Shirts - again - ALL MY SHIRTS ARE AVAILABLE IN BABY SIZES UP TO 6X ADULTS! You can also select them in ANY style (such as hoodie, tanktop, t-shirt, baby onesie, etc.) and ANY colour (they look BEST either in the dark colours shown or on white though, I think) - just be sure to click on the "Select a Different Shirt Style" link by the sizing options - customize it just how you like it! Again - this is true for ALL my shirts. Even if it shows an XS female wearing that painting on a black shirt, you can still go to "Select a Different Shirt Size" and get in in a size 6X Men's white T-Shirt, makes no difference.

Until next time...

Off to the Ozarks, New Faces of Faery Original Painting, Alice in Absinthe Shirts...... [Jun. 26th, 2009|08:21 am]
Hi everyone!

I have a brand new original painting for you - the next in my "Faces of Faery" series - "Faces of Faery 19"! She's ready-to-hang and starting at just one penny!

Also just a quick head's up - I'm on my way to a family reunion camping down in the Ozarks this weekend, I'll be back day after tomorrow (Sunday). So if you email me or place an order, I'll be getting back to you on Sunday rather than Saturday. No big deal, just thought I'd let everybody know =)

In addition I have some new T-Shirts available! "Mermaid Eclipse" and "Alice in Absinthe".

First off is the new original painting - "Faces of Faery 19" is the title - number NINETEEN (the nineteenth one) in my new painting series called "Faces of Faery". This is an ORIGINAL PAINTING (not a print of any kind). This is the 19th in the series. Faces of Faery all feature beautiful faery-inspired creatures, and she is no exception. Her eyes are amazing - glittering hints of yellow peer out from her mysterious green complexion! As I'm currently visiting my family here in the Sunflower State (Kansas), I thought I'd put a sunflower in there too, hehe. The great thing about my "Faces of Faery" series of paintings is that they are all the same size and are intended to hang beautifully in a group as well as on their own - for example they make fabulous groupings of several paintings together Like all Faces of Faery she is 6"x6" on a 2" deep cradled masonite panel that is READY TO HANG and needs no frame. She's up on eBay starting at ONE PENNY for a 7-day auction ending the evening of Thursday, July 2nd at 7:00PM Central Time. You can see her below:

Jasmine's New "Golden Mermaid" Original Painting, and New T-Shirts! [Jun. 24th, 2009|08:04 pm]
Hi everyone!

I have a brand new original painting for you - a GORGEOUS Golden Mermaid - ready-to-hang and starting at just one penny! In addition I have some new T-Shirts available! (Pssst - new T-shirts include "Eve Triptych" and "Red Riding Hood in Autumn" and "Mildew"!).

First off is the new original painting - "Golden Mermaid" is the title - such a delicately beautiful painting - I love her so much. She looks a little sad - she needs a hug! Subtle pinks, violets and turquoises reflect in the sea around her - an approaching (or is it departing?) storm in the distance..... This really is a stunning piece - it truly can be the focus of any room. This is an ORIGINAL PAINTING - not a print of any kind! It is on WOOD CRADLED MASONITE - Matt has added a hanger on the back, so it is READY TO HANG! No frame needed! Of course you can always add a frame if you want (if it's gallery profile, as this is 2" thick!), but she looks awesome by herself too. I've painted the wooden sides a glossy black, so it looks pretty sharp. Rather large in size - 20" wide by 16" high - she's up on eBay starting at ONE PENNY for a 10-day auction ending the evening of Saturday July 4th at 7:53 PM Central TimeTime. - PLEASE NOTE (folks in the US mostly) - this is the evening of the Fourth of July, so if you're going to be out watching fireworks, be sure to get your bids in early so you don't miss out on your Mermaid!

Eve Triptych - Folding Gothic Triptych - ORIGINAL Painting, ACEO Cards & New Shirts! [Jun. 21st, 2009|08:37 pm]
Hi everyone!

I have a brand new original painting for you - possibly one of my best masterpieces to date - and it is a huge FOLDING TRIPTYCH (altarpiece style) called "Eve Triptych"- an amazing frame by Matt -and in addition I have new ACEOs and some new T-Shirts available! (Pssst - new T-shirts include "Little Miss Muffet" and "Snow White and Her Animal Friends"!). The original painting & ACEOs are all starting at a penny. This is a particularly wonderful update tonight, so be sure to scroll down to see everything!

First off is the new original painting - (or THREE original paintings actually - all in one!) - this truly is a masterpiece! The most impressive collaboration between me & my husband Matt so far! For those art history buffs, this is my first FOLDING TRIPTYCH - done in the medieval altarpiece style. In the past, many churches would have folding altarpieces that they would unfold on Sundays or on holidays to display the painted interior. This is one done in high Gothic style - a solid wood triptych (three paneled painting) first cut & carved by my lovely husband Matt - and then finished by me in an antiqued gold leaf finish. It is THREE original paintings in one - medieval/spiritual iconography - it features a saintly woman on the left panel holding a scroll, a skeleton/memento mori on the right panel, and a beautiful maiden in the central panel holding an apple. Holding true to the altarpiece theming of the creation, I've called it "Eve Triptych". And yes indeed - it has hinges and folds closed easily - it is way cool. We're very proud of this one! A whopping 34" high at the central apex and about 20" wide when extended. I've never done anything quite like this before - please do check it out! All ready to hang - this can truly make your house look like a Gothic Cathedral or a fine art museum! Original acrylic painting on solid wood with gold leaf and metal hinges. She's up on eBay starting at ONE PENNY for a 10-day auction ending the evening of Wednesday July 1st 8:06 PM Central TimeTime.



"Eve Triptych" 34"x20" ORIGINAL PAINTING - amazing folding triptych!

Now for the new ACEOs - for more info about ACEO cards, how I make them & what they are (basically tiny hand embellished one of a kind canvas prints, trading card sized and highly collectable), consult the individual auction descriptions - they are each one of a kind, hand-painted with accents by me, the artist, and are awesome! All are each starting at a penny, with no reserve for seven-day auctions ending on the evening of Monday June 29th 6:00-6:09PM Central Time:

I've finished the frame with the gold leaf. After I finish the actual PAINTING part of it, hehe, Matt will add the hinges. I want it to be a traditional "folding" triptych in the altarpiece style - so the wings will fold in and close too! How cool is that?

New "Little Miss Muffet" Original Painting & New Stuff & New Prints! [Jun. 18th, 2009|07:36 pm]
Hi everyone!

Getting ready to go wait around at the hospital since my nephew Fox should be born any minute!

In the meantime.....

I have a brand new original painting to show you - a VERY pretty painting called "Little Miss Muffet". The latest in my long-running fairytales series, she's starting at just ONE PENNY! In addition I have new items in my Zazzle store (bags, totes, TONS of T-shirts), and also this week's SALE PRINTS ("Mermaid in Rococo" "My Tentacled Friend" and "Brother Raccoon")!

First off is the new original painting - "Little Miss Muffet" is the title - the latest in my long-running Fairytales series. Some of you may remember the other Miss Muffet I painted about 8 years ago - I thought I'd paint another one since I'm a better painter now, hehe. This one is BRAND NEW - Little Miss Muffet - sitting on her tuffet - (or in this case by some creepy vines) - and the SPIDER (who in this case wouldn't really scare anybody - he's too cute!). What a fun painting! She is 16"x20" - an original acrylic painting on 2" thick cradled masonite - READY TO HANG - GALLERY STYLE - NO FRAME NEEDED - and is up for sale on eBay - a ten day auction starting at ONE PENNY with no reserve - yes, a penny - ending on the evening of Sunday June 28th 7:17 PM Central Time- you can see it here (go see this one, really it's cute & pretty!):



"Little Miss Muffet" ORIGINAL PAINTING

Next up - new merchandise in my Zazzle store! Some of my favourite paintings are now available on T-Shirts and totebags too! These are GORGEOUS! And also.... ALL OF THE SHIRTS are available in all sizes (up to 6x), are available for both men and women (even babies and children) and all colours (look at the preview though to get a good idea of how they look on different colours - some go better than others). It's quite simple - if you see a painting you like on a shirt, even if the picture shows a young lady wearing that painting on a red shirt, you can then click the "Select a different shirt style" link and switch it to men, or child, etc. Then pick the style of shirt - like tanktop, sweatshirt, V-neck, etc. Each style of shirt has different size & colour options. Some only go to XL, but some go to 6x so keep looking if you want bigger sizes. Some are pastel or light colours and some are dark colours. The price varies a lot - you might get the shirts cheaper than the listed price if you pick a different style, etc. Same with the totebags - they come in different sizes & styles, you get to customize them yourself! Visit my Zazzle store by clicking below:

My Zazzle Store!

Good news! "Mermaid in Rococo," "My Tentacled Friend" and "Brother Raccoon" are all now this week's SALE prints! Check it out - here are all my current sale prints:

TONS of new T-Shirts - getting ready to go to Kansas City [Jun. 15th, 2009|06:03 pm]
Today was spent mostly getting our hard drives and other files backed up - getting ready to go visit family up at our little house in Kansas City tomorrow. For those of you not in the loop, Matt & I built a little secondary home/studio to use as a painting & shipping center when we're up there visiting family. Our main house of course is here in Florida, but we go visit our families a lot up there so we had to build another house! Luckily having the little house means I don't even have to stop painting for more than a day, with never any delays in shipping or orders =)

While I was waiting for the computers to do their thing today, I created several dozen new shirts up in my Zazzle store! I have been SWAMPED by you folks asking for different pictures on shirts & other products. Don't worry - this store is a work in progress, and tons more things will be added on a daily basis.

Also - to answer 50% of the questions I've been getting, hehe - ALL OF THE SHIRTS are available in all sizes (up to 6x), are available for both men and women (even babies and children) and all colours (look at the preview though to get a good idea of how they look on different colours - some go better than others). It's quite simple - if you see a painting you like on a shirt, even if the picture shows a young lady wearing that painting on a red shirt, you can then click the "Select a different shirt style" link and switch it to men, or child, etc. Then pick the style of shirt - like tanktop, sweatshirt, V-neck, etc. Each style of shirt has different size & colour options. Some only go to XL, but some go to 6x so keep looking if you want bigger sizes. Some are pastel or light colours and some are dark colours. The price varies a lot - you might get the shirts cheaper than the listed price if you pick a different style, etc.

Again, ALL SHIRT IMAGES ARE AVAILABLE ON ALL SIZES / STYLES / SLEVE LENGTHS / COLOURS / MENS/WOMENS/KIDS. You don't need to request that I make a different shirt with that same image - you do that yourself by clicking the "Select a different shirt style" link. Hope that helps!

(and scroll down and click the "T-Shirts" link under Product Types to see the shirts! Tons of them!

Enjoy! Off to finish packing, I'll be in Kansas City in not much longer. Baby Fox isn't born yet - maybe he's waiting for us!

New Strangeling Framed Original Painting - Pale Green Eyes - Zazzle Update [Jun. 14th, 2009|07:34 pm]
[mood | accomplished]

Hi everyone!

GREAT news tonight - firstly I have a brand new original painting for you tonight - "Pale Green Eyes" - a GORGEOUS piece with a brand new "Strangeling Frame" - and it's a more-improved Strangeling Frame too.... because it's all solid wood! No resin or plastic - one single piece of solid wood. Matt has done a phenomenal job making the frame - you have to see it! And also in very exciting news, I have started a ZAZZLE store with many new and customizable products - T-shirts (you get to pick the colours, style, size, etc.!), postcards, buttons, stickers, skateboards, mugs, mousepads, US Postage stamps, and more. I've created a lovely assortment of my paintings on all the merchandise (Zazzle ships all over the place too, including the UK, Canada, Australia, etc. for my overseas fans). TONS more stuff will be added soon too.

All righty - "Pale Green Eyes" is the title of the new original - "Pale Green Eyes" - a portrait of a delicate beauty of a mermaid with pale, almost glowing green eyes and dark hair..... This is the ORIGINAL PAINTING itself. She's an acrylic painting on a circular masonite panel. Framed she measures 16" wide by 9" high. I am VERY proud of this original picture frame. My husband Matt made it out of a SINGLE PIECE of solid poplar wood (environmentally selected). The frame is very ornate, SOLID WOOD - no plastic or resin/foam - this is all wood. Two of my mermaids are carved at the bottom to make the base, with and ornate circular frame. The frame is all one solid piece. One of the most beautiful picture frames I've ever seen (I'm so proud of Matt!) I have finished the frame with antiqued copper & patina finish. Check out the pictures! This is an ORIGINAL PAINTING - not a print of any kind! Matt has added a hanger on the back, so it is READY TO HANG! She's up for just ONE PENNY on eBay for a 10-day auction ending the evening of Wednesday, June 24th at 6:14PM Central Time, and you can see her below:

I finished my commission so after I finish exercizing I'll be painting for myself today! I'll try posting a few in-progress shots while I work. Mostly in my Mobile Uploads folder on Facebook (easiest for me) but probably a couple here too =) Baby Fox still hasn't been born yet! Could be any minute now! Matt made me this lovely solid wood Strangeling frame (out of poplar wood - all one piece!) in his workshop - so whatever I paint today will be going in here! I've started putting a neat patina/copper leaf finish on it, but here's how it looked bare:

Off I go! Have a great weekend all!
