Here are even more rooster items I've added to the store recently. I love doing photography and artwork with a chicken in it.
Now that I have added so many new chicken things to the store at once it is time to move onto a new theme for awhile. I'm just not sure what that new theme will be yet. I love to take photos of so many different things. I might make it down to the county fair and take photos of the animals and activities going on down there. I won't know what exactly I am adding to the store next until I actually add it to the store. I have 400 new photos that I took last week and haven't even gotten around to editing or using in any types of digital creations yet. Summer is my busy season. I do a lot more of my digital art in the winter time when I am indoors more. So even if I don't have the time to get around to the photos now I will eventually get around to them. It is esp. fun to work with summer photos on those cold winter days.

Roosters
A really nice lady brought some of her antique glass rooster collection to a farmer's market a few weeks ago for me to photograph. I thought that was so sweet of her. She had been to my store and saw that I love chickens. I've also been photographing my real roosters as well. :) So there are now several new rooster items in the store.

Been So Busy
Sorry I haven't updated the blog in awhile. I've been really busy. I've added lots of new things to the Zazzle store. I've also been going to three farmer's markets each week, taking photos, caring for the critters, etc. Then we also lost our Internet connection for 4 days due to a storm.
Here are a few of the newest additions to the store:

R.I.P Serena and New Ducklings
We lost our dear girl, Serena yesterday. It was so strange last night going to bed and not having her there to say goodnight to and then waking up this morning without her. She was an amazing dog. She would have loved to see the new ducklings that came hatched out yesterday. She loved all animals but esp. the babies.
Here are a few of my fave photos I have of Serena.
Ok, no more. I am starting to tear up again. I'll always have the good memories of her.
On a much happier note. We had a dozen ducklings hatch yesterday. These are Apple's. Apple is my duck I got as a fertile egg from New York that I put in the incubator and hatched. Sky Jr. should of had ducklings also. She was sitting on a nest but I think the eggs weren't any good. She is helping Apple with her ducklings now.

Digital and Paper Collage
I am doing more collage work both digitally and also using actual paper. It is fun. I will upload more to my store soon. I have another stack of paper collages ready to photograph. I also have some more digital collages done and ready to upload. But sometimes there are too many people trying to upload at once so I can't get anything uploaded and have to try again later. Here are some of the items in my store already.
I've also been so busy with the farmer's markets each week but I try to find at least a little bit of time each day to do some collage work either digitally or using actual paper.

Handmade Cards
I have taken some photos of my handmade ATCs, ACEOs, ect. to sale as reproduction greeting cards. They are on Zazzle and a few are on another site also. The other site had the strangest request. They wanted me to make my handmade stuff not look so handmade and look more polished and professional. I thought the point of handmade was that it was handmade and not perfect. They didn't like the crinkled paper I purposely used on some of the ATCs for the effect I was going for. I've decided I won't be designing anything new for that other site and will be designing more for Zazzle now. Zazzle doesn't complain about the handmade look. I even have some fans of the store that like that look. I shouldn't have to change my art to satisfy what someone else (the other site) wants.
Here are a few of them that are new on Zazzle.
The other site let this one on but said it would be better if I digitally added the words instead of using my own handwritten words. But on a handmade card I think it should look handmade. Anyways... Thanks for letting me vent this morning.

Farmer's Markets
Farmer's Markets have been keeping us busy. I've been going to three a week and this week it will be 4 plus a swap meet on Sunday. I took this photo at the Thursday night market. I sold a couple of necklaces and a postcard that night :) Last night at the market I had something marked $2.00 and a nice lady came over and demanded she pay $5.00 for it. Sweet! Most people complain my $2.00 art is too expensive so I never know what to price things at. Well, I best be going as we are leaving here soon for another market.
