Miniature Art, Pins, and Comics

hey, more items in the Shop (http://www.sprouthead.etsy.com/), like these cool little miniature doo-dads that you can hang on your wall or use as ornaments. They're mini pictures in mini picture frames, and have a little string that makes it easy to hang over a nail or push pin. I also posted some plush cloth pins, bookplates, and a silkscreen print, and there's already some t-shirts in the shop.

ATTENTION ALL COMIX FANS: i'm trying to motivate myself to do some comics now. i've done a few in the past, and really enjoyed the process but i've been stuck in artist's block land for a few years and really haven't done much with it. but COMIX WILL PREVAIL! My friend Melanie and I came up with an idea for a Comix Club, where we give each other subjects for comics and try to come up with one inspired by that idea. If anyone from the Rochester, NY area is reading this and would like to be part of the club, e-mail me at good_old_fashioned_smell@hotmail.com. If anyone outside of the area would like to be part of the Online Club, e-mail me too and we can all share comics through e-mail. This is not a contest, it's for fun and to help comic artists motivate themselves! i know that i certainly need a lot of motivation to get anything done. P.S. if you know of any cool comics, let me know so I can look at them.

hi aijung,

i saw one of your miniatures on ross hoffman's wall in philly and really liked it. he gave me your business card and here i am at your site--i'm thrilled by your art! very lovely creations. i'm curious, do you ever sell your drawings or paintings? i might like to save up to buy one...

anyways, thanks for the inspiration!

hi liza,

thanks so much for writing! i always feel in the dark about how strangers feel about my art because barely anyone leaves comments on the site or e-mails me. so thank you.

i've actually never sold an original drawing or painting (though i'm not opposed to it), i mostly sell my prints. but let me know which pieces you're interested in so i can think over pricing and things. some of the drawings are rather large (dimensions are listed on the site), so i don't know if that'll be a factor in your interest in buying them. most of the prints are available as well.

i have a lot of new work that i want to put up on the website, but my friend shane is redesigning the site and hasn't gotten to it yet. please e-mail me so i'll be able to contact you directly. i've got so many projects that i'm bursting to make, but it's taking its sweet time. i'm selling more of the miniature art that ross has on my Etsy website: www.sprouthead.etsy.com. i'm calling them "pocket pictures". they're $7.50 each or 4 for $28.

anyway, thanks so much for your interest! did you go to school with ross? i don't think i've met you before since i've never visited him in philly.

have a great day!
