Surprised by how many products with this Measuring Spoon drawing I've sold this year.  I've sold quite a few pages of stationery since I put the product up a few years ago. 

I've always liked this little drawing.  I remember how happy I was when I worked out how to to create the metallic look of the spoons.  Ah nostalgia.

A New Look and a New Focus

Looks like I've not made a post in literally years. I've taken the focus away from selling my work and focused on being a better artist and really finding themes I resonate with.  I've been doing lots of ATC trades and gifts. Just finding my my, as you do.  You can see my progress and latest ATCs and other drawings and sketches over at See. Draw.  Share.  or check out Mellanie Collins, Artist on Facebook.

I'll be opening an Etsy shop soon and working on stocking it with small format artwork:  ACEOs, 5x7, and possible 8 x10 orginals. So pardon my dust while I get my house in order. 

Thanks!

People Still Buy Mousepads!

Seems like whenever I decide to shut down my Zazzle shop, I get another sale.  I was surprised to see this one.  I didn't know people still bought mouse pads.   This mousepad features an ink sketch of a cat that I did a few years ago.  So cool to see that the old designs still sell.   

New Original Artwork Bookplate Stickers

In the last few months I've added some new designs and experimented with some new products.  I've seen a number of cute bookplate stickers on Zazzle, so I decided to try designing some of my own.

Many thanks to Eric from Wadsworth, Ohio and to the lovely affiliate who guided him to my design! I'm having such a great year on Zazzle!

One of my owl designs is featured on this Cute and Funny Owls page.  Check it out.  There are so many really sweet owl designs there.

This has been a great year for me on Zazzle and 2012 isn't even close to half over yet!

I'm working on another bulldog design.  So very soon I'll have more new products to show you.

Thanks for stopping by and checking out my work.

New Bulldog Design and Products!

Bulldog Watercolor Puzzle by genxster

I was looking though some old scans of artist trading cards I made last year and found this bulldog watercolor painting.  I remembered how pleased I was with how well the nose came out.  Well, I decided that this might be a charming addition to my shop.

Watercolor Bulldog Wrapped by genxster

My best dog drawings so far have been of English Bulldog puppies.  I love drawing their sweet brown eyes and those folds around the mouth.  If I continue I may just end up starting a shop devoted to them.  For now I have new English Bulldog gifts items and practical items too including:  laptop and tablet sleeves,  iPad, iPod, and laptop decal skins, and assorted hard-cover phone cases.  In addition to those there are postcards, coffee mugs, ornaments, keychains, and many other fun trinkets.

I'm having such fun building my shop and learning how to promote myself.  I hope you give the shop a visit and check out all my current designs.
