I thought it would be awesome to sell my artwork via a POD (print on demand) site where you have your art on a lot of products the company does all the leg work and you sell your art. See notice what I said there they do all the leg work. Some think they are a rip off but they have all the items which are to be printed on, they print them ship them deal with returns etc and if you can continue to get paid over and over for the same art. I think it is a win win!!</p><p>It is not being as easy as I thought it would be though I am having to learn background removal programs because for most items you do have to have a blank background so it fits into designs well. Its all good though. Its taking me back to my digital art days and I get to tweek things. I am having to learn a few programs really to make sure all looks good. It is all worth it though.<br /></p><p>Oh And I am getting back into some of my funky digital art again. I guess I enjoy a lot of that as many of the designs are kalidescope like and I love Love LOVE kalidescopes!!! When I do the digital art I can actively create it without a background so perfection!!!! Do dah!!!</p><p>Oh and otherwise I am really checking out things to see what I want to sell. I think its gonna be a lot of my watercolor images especially the ones I call my scruffy fluffies, after taking the illustrators course I found myself really feeding my whimsy and so lots of fluffy scruffies have been born from it!!</p><p>I also feel it is just so fun to have my stuff on all sorts of items because it just feels like another level of professional!!!</p><p>This new journey has the ability to catapult me into even more directions. Right now my mind is ticking with ideas.😻</p><p>Until next time be happy and create!!!!<br /></p>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34655912.post-86906491849591080922023-03-12T15:50:00.000-06:002023-03-12T15:50:32.126-06:00I've come a longgggggggg way baby. <div data-editor-content="{"blocks":[{"key":"1jvvs","text":"Now as I am revamping my art site I find myself looking back at all the roads I have journeyed on and the directions I find myself going now.

Happy Halloween/Samhain </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">

<div class="MsoNormal">
The word Halloween means hallowed evening; hallowed meaning
sacred.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
It is a time when the veils between the realms are thin. And
we can connect the ancestors who have passed.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>In my Native heritage the ancestors and their wisdom are honored always
as ones to aid us. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Thus in the Celtic Samhain celebration the dead were honored
not feared. Knowing they are just on another level of existence.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Death was not seen as a negative but as
change. A time of community and celebration where the new ones born during the year
were formally introduced into their community. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
It was custom to leave food for the elders or for the fae so
they would not pull pranks, hence the “trick or treat”. In other traditions
costumes and mischief making singing and dancing was the way of this night and
they would go door to door offering prayers for treats.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Jack-o'-lantern comes from British origins and means man
with a lantern.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Also called will o’ the wisp
which refers to the neat flickers of light in wetlands at night said to be fae
or ghosts pranking. So, such has an appropriate place in the Halloween
celebrations where they are generally outdoors lit by candles.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Bobbing for apples has been seeing in many ways but one that
I think is neat. It was said that If one caught an apple when bobbing for
apples they were to peel it carefully and to slowly circle their head with the
peel thrice and then throw it over their head.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>The letter shape that appeared would be the first initial of the
individuals’ true love. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
No matter how you look at the day be it from a stand point
of ancient traditions or of a day of fun and merriment. Let it be one of joy.</div>

My Beloved Grandmother passed. I am so glad I was able to spend time with her before.<br />
I was asked to make the memorial cards. I felt honored to do this for her.<br />
<br />
We laid her to rest yesterday. I really did not want to go up to the coffin but did so and it hurt my heart so much.. not the grandma I know and love so fully of fire and spunk... It surely must be another...This all a dream I will awaken from. Wake up Lis!<br />

I don't. I don't need to look at others as a race, a color, or a lifestyle. Nor do I need to stereotype.<br />
<br />
Let not our world be about divisions but about appreciation for one another.<br />
<br />
Let not our world be about fear but about wonder.<br />
<br />
Always makes me think of a childhood experience of mine. I was visiting my aunt in the city with my mother. all week long I had played with the neighborhood children. All of a sudden one of the childrens mothers would not let him play with us saying he was sick. He wasn't he snuck to the window saying as much.<br />
<br />
I told my mother about this and she told me his mother was being prejudice. I had no idea what she meant. She explained that his mother did not want him to play with us because we had different skin colors from him. I looked at her with my face scrunched in confusion and said, "that doesn't make any sense." Out of the mouth of babes as they say.<br />
<br />
Thanks mom for teaching me to be good to others and for not teaching me about prejudice.<br />
<br />
Also makes me think of my good friend Jig (Jason). One never knows what lovely color would end up in his hair, or what fun look he would be inspired to have. Many would label in a certain way... he really doesn't he just knows who he is. You rock my "Silly Dragon".<br />
<br />
I feel individuality is frowned upon because their is no predictability in it. In a world the demands strucure it creates fear. Those of us who are free from this are labeled rebels,..anarchists. The majority of us just desire the truth, justice, and honor of days gone by. Is it truly gone though? Not as long as there are those who live it.<br />
<br />

When I was a child my mom would always tell me I should leave things better then I found them. I took this to heart. <br />
<br />
Always leaving my Mother Earth more glorious then before. Removing the litter, adding flowers... one cannot have too many flowers.<br />
<br />
When moving from a residence. Giving it a new paint job,... Yes more flowers in the yard too! Besides the fairies like a well kept place as well.<br />
