I have to admit, I have a thing for pillows. Even better when I can see my designs come to life on them. I love Labs and thought I had rescued one from a shelter ten years ago when our dog was only two months old. When I brought her to the vet for her first check-up, he let me know, to my surprise, that we had an Ibezan Hound, not a Lab. Well, she turned out to be a Lab-Ibezan mix. And when those ears of hers stood up like bat wings at around 4 months of age, I knew for sure she wasn't a Lab. We're talking huge ears! So granted, she wasn't the Lab we wanted, but we fell in love with her. She's such a part of the family that I can't imagine our life without her. Oh, and click on the pillow. It will take you to my store. And you can also see the other products, too, while you're there. Thanks for visiting!

After the creation of the art, cleaning and adjusting in Photoshop, the art is ready to upload the the stores I have on the net. The fun one is Zazzle, even though there are many artists that frown upon net stores like that. I actually do pretty well on that site and find it rewarding to see the art on a myriad of products. Zazzle keeps adding to the product line which makes it that much more time consuming to create. I'm not one to use their "Quick Create" button that places the design on a hundred products. I carefully fit my art on products I feel the art looks best on. Quality is definitely better than a bunch of products with ill-fitting art. Click on the picture to see the new products that I've been creating with this design. Thanks for looking!

My dog loving friend's birthday was yesterday, so I quickly sketched this as an email card for her. I'm showing it here as a work in progress, but the final art is now completed. I'll finish it up in Photoshop and put it on my online stores. Links to the finished work to come. This has inspired me to do more art in the same theme. See you back here soon! Thanks for popping by. Always appreciated!

Just after I uploaded this card to my Card Gnome store, I noticed a smiling face with the little bud as the nose. Completely customizable for your own message with a lighter version of the floral design on the inside of the card. Click on the image to visit this card on my Card Gnome store. See you there!
