More Art on A Whim

-



I don't know why, why I thought owls are awesome, and I should make something with owls in it.  So I went to town with the idea.
Couple hours later, these are the illustrations/designs I came up with.  Somehow when I made this, I kept thinking about my Grandma and how she used to show me all these Chinese paper-cutting art pieces she made from scrap paper.  So at the end, these pieces all end up looking like paper-cut art pieces.  Homage to my Grandma.



I thought of the rainbow color theme but decided that these would look cooler with a tie-dye effect to it.  Now the question is should I sell these prints on Etsy or should I use these designs for my Zazzle shop.  I'm still playing around with the palette and patterns to make them even cooler.  Even though I love paper cutting art, I don't want them to look TOO classic Chinese paper cutting style.  Stay tune for upcoming patterns and Zazzle products.  Feel free to pop me a line if you love it or think it's just weird.  Comments are soul food for artists, so come on, drop me a line.

Love,
The Mochigirl

Yes I'm Walmart's whore.  But it's the first proper store in next town -- 10.4 miles to be exact (I googled.  And no, there is ONLY a tiny grocery store, a gas station, a laundromat, a cornerstore, a coffeeshop, a burger joint, and a restaurant in our town).  So Matt Damon in "We Bought A Zoo", don't you start wit

So I guess I didn't get Lyme's Disease or Colorado Tick Fever....or at least that's what that fading bug bite is trying to convince me.  The swelling has finally subsided and no bull eye's target mark.  Interesting enough is that BBC has posted an article on how some people are really more attractive to mosquitoes than other people.  I can really relate to that.

Just Fart -- Practical Optimism

So last night Bunny and I finally got a chance to go to bed early at 11PM.  We fell into our bed with fits of giggles as if it was the best thing ever after gorging on some extra chocolatey cake (which we did as I made him two huge chocolate cakes for his so-called Russian Cure treatment). But something quickly put a damper on our mood.
