Two 1:12 scale dollhouse miniature original paintings.




I finished two little miniature paintings yesterday, inspired by the Atlanta Botanical Gardens.
One is of a little girl "Runaway" running away from her parents who are obviously occupied talking. Watercolor with a little bit of ink.
It's listed on eBay at: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=290386424711

The other is "The Hot Seat" - a garden bench in the tropical garden hothouse in the ABGs.
It's all in watercolor. The image size on both is 1.5" - but I've left a white border around the outside that can help with framing.

3 little ducklings - ink sketch on 100+ year old paper




3 of the cutest little baby ducklings on 100+ year old ledger paper with copperplate handwriting on it - my original art. I'm loving doing these. :)
They were in a country store nearby (Rainey's in Sam's Valley). The black background is just for display purposes.

Bunny rabbit fun! Original art.




Just listed on etsy (handmade online selling site).
http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?listing_id=36831359

A very unique, one-of-a-kind artwork. A great conversation piece.

A book out of a handwritten ledger book - this page is dated 1905 and has accounting details on it in copperplate handwritten script. Torn edge where I tore it out of the ledger. And the bottom is cut fairly straight across, making size approx 10.25 x 8" (SFA). I've printed a scroll of flowers (the ONLY thing printed) in pink.

Then I've sketched (HAND-DRAWN) a cute black and white rabbit on it, in ink pen.

The old book page is heavier than typing paper, and is 'as is' - in line with being over 100 years old - some of its condition is slight discoloration.

Art Prints / Posters of this are available on Zazzle @ http://www.zazzle.com/artistjillian* - there may also be other gift items, cards, etc with this image on them also.

Zazzle Christmas Special - 60% off art prints/posters



Today's special on Zazzle is for 60% off art prints and posters.

To celebrate I created a triptych (set 3) posters of my first series of alphabet ACEOs - all made using a book from the 1800s. This special is almost like buying one, and getting the other 2 free.

Would look really great framed and hanging as a set.

Binder for ACEO collections - my design!



Just created my first binder for sale on Zazzle.
Of course it HAD to be for ACEO collections (just add trading card sleeves).
I used images of my original ACEO collage alphabet series images, so HAD to call it A-Z.

Need something to store your ACEOs in?

Great gifts for Christmas - very unique.
Despite being on a commercial site, these are printed on demand. NOT mass-produced.
