20 January 2008: A small update

Hi folks, I feel bad for not having updated in so long and perhaps most of all for not replying to any letters – thank you all so much for the support! I am still on a sick-leave and it feels useless to update when I have nothing to update with. I hope you saw, and enjoyed, Golden Compass. I had tons of fun working on it.

I promise, when I am better, I will create lots of new stuff and update the site frequently. Right now, I work mostly in papier mache – creating masks and such. For now, if you excuse the silly photos, you can at least look at them, ne?

Big hugs, and I miss you all, Linda.

12 January 2007:

Hi everyone,
First of all, my apologies for not having updated for so long. Some of you might know that I've taken ill and been on sick leave for most of the autumn, and I've been somewhat unreachable during this time. My sincere apologies to my many online friends and acquaintances, and to all of my fans for my lack of updates as well as the tutorial I was working on. I haven't really painted since this summer so there's nothing new to show. Don't worry about me though, I'm not dying; I'll get better and I'll be back :)

To my business contacts; don't be afraid to get in touch with me, I'll get back to you as soon as I can, and I hope to be well enough to work again soon.

Anyway, hugs and kisses to you all, I hope you had a great holiday and a wonderful new year.

31 July 2006: Tutorial Preview

First of all, thank you for the many emails regarding the bag: I think I have a few clues and there might be some bags in the works :D I'll end up painting bag-paintings for the rest of the year at this rate, ha ha. If you've written to me, I'm working to get around to you – I received such a massive, wonderful response. Thank you everyone for the sweet letters, all the hints and tips and tricks – I'll send messages individually, just not tonight (it's 4:30... insomnia)

Really writing this entry because of this, though:
Since a few weeks back, I've been working on a massive, free tutorial for my site... mainly because it's been a whole long while since the last one (free one, that is) and I feel it's about time :] It's pretty much the most extensive one I've tried so far, so it's going to take a whole long time to finish. I'm not even halfway there yet.

Here's a preview of the finished piece, though:

22 July 2006: I'll make you a painting

Okay, here's the deal. Let's consider this a competition :)

I have a bag that I utterly love. It's a Jack Skellington bag, a backpack by boblbe-e... prettiest damn bag I've ever had.

Here's what it looks like:

Unfortunately, the thing is getting a bit old, and as I've worn it non-stop since I first bought it – it's getting a bit broken. Coins now spill out of it on their own volition, and as a result, I leave a trail of them wherever I go. It's getting impossible, and I know I'll soon have to give up wearing the bag.

BUT I LOVE THAT BAG.

I initially bought it in Disney Land outside of Los Angeles, a few years back.

Now, here's what:

I very, very rarely do private commissions these days, but I will paint a painting for the first person to find, and give, me this bag (trust me, I charge way more for a commission than this bag costs). I will make a truly pretty painting for you, I promise, but I NEED THIS BAG, prettyplease, I'll do almost anything (actually, I can pay for the bag, too, on top of the painting if you just find it)! I can even promise I'll do a second painting if I get a second bag – I am just desperate for the damn thing, I want a stock of them sitting in my basement.

If you're not interested in a painting, but you know where I can get hold of the bag, please – I beg of you, tell me where. I need it the way I need chocolate. Desperately.
