Ch-ch-ch-ch-changes...

Finally I’ve given some attention to my poor neglected little Etsy shop. I hadn’t listed anything new in it since last October. Yikes! So I’ve now changed things around. Out with the old and in with the new. I’ve decided for the time being that I’ll not list paintings/ACEOs but try something different. TtV photos! I seem to be spending more of my free time playing with my cameras than with my paints and I’m really enjoying this TtV technique so it made sense to go this route for now. I certainly don’t consider myself a professional photographer by any means. I’ve never considered myself as a professional painter either. Or a professional ACEO maker person. I just like creating. And I like Etsy. Sometimes the creations and Etsy work well together. And sometimes not. Part of the fun is not knowing, and then the buzz you receive when somebody likes what you’ve done. Likes it enough to purchase it, or make a nice comment, or heart it, or feature it in a treasury or on their blog. I feel really fortunate in having experienced all of those things with my artwork. I’m hopeful that people will enjoy my new stuff. So here are a few of my TtV photo listings.


I'm lucky to have this one currently in a very cool treasury curated by Marebear. Thanks Marebear!


Now with the promotional stuff out of the way, I’ll leave you with a fun quiz to do. I found this on the awesome Tea & Honey Bread blog recently. I don’t often do quizzes but this one I was strangely drawn to.

You Are Elmo

Sweet and innocent, you expect everyone to adore you. And they usually do! You are usually feeling: Talkative. You've got tons of stories to tell. And when you aren't talking, you're laughing. You are famous for: Being popular, though no one knows why. Middle aged women especially like you. How you live your life: With an open heart. "Elmo loves you!"

The Sesame Street Personality Quiz

As it turns out I am an Elmo personality type. I’m not sure how accurate that result is. Especially considering that I fibbed a little with my answers. Purely out of fear of being labelled a Bert. I really didn't want to be a Bert. Not that I have anything against Bert. He's a likeable enough muppet and all. I just didn't want to BE a Bert. That whole vertical striped skivvy look just doesn't suit me. I'm not saying a body covered in red fur suits me either. Ummm...I've no idea what I'm trying to say. Think I'll just be quiet now.


Nope. I’ll be quiet in a moment. I swear I will. I just remembered this award that the lovely Richie from Sweden of Richie’s Inspirational Designs blog gave to me a few days ago. Translated it means “you have a cute/sweet blog”...awww shucks, thanks so much Richie. Ok, I’m being quiet now. Really and truly I am.
