I will be changing the layout frequently because I’m obsession with new ideas lol. But it looks damn good for me doing it myself. I’m so proud.

Finally! I’m done! here they are…

This one is a redo of another painting I had done a year ago..I didn’t think it was going to turn out but I’m very pleased with the results. Go me! lol

These are a add on to another painting I did that goes in the middle. I didn’t have the original so I’m really hoping they look ok together..I think the colors are off a little. Hopefully she will still buy them. ::cross fingers::

So this is the painting I am working on, obviously not even close to being done. I had to start off with something simple to get back in the groove. I haven’t painted alot in a while and I have to paint 4 paintings by Thursday to take out of town with me..eek! I’m going to Fairhope/Gulf Shores for a family wedding. I’m so excited because I haven’t been to the beach in 9 months and I miss it terribly. Since moving to Huntsville I realized that the beach is my home. I will never be happy anywhere but there.

I will now be sending out an email newsletter to all of my followers. It will include new Etsy shop items, sales, coupons, and other brief but important information so you all can keep up with what I’m doing and such. I’m always dabbling into new arts and crafts so it should be cool and in the least bit boring..if nothing else, you will get some eye candy out of it because it will be mostly pictures of my work.

If you are interested in being on my mailing list email me at Jennfunique@yahoo.com with your Name and email address. Most likely you will only receive between 1 and 4 emails a month, depending on how productive I have been. I will not give out your information to anyone else or anything like that.

Using an actual e-newsletter company will depend on how many people sign up. If it gets crazy busy then I will use a company, but for now it will be me, Illustrator, photoshop, my keyboard, and you. So tell your friends and family!

Email me at Jennfunique@yahoo.com with your Name and email to sign up for my newsletter! Thanks guys!

These are my newest paintings that I did for a friend. I don’t know if she really liked them or not. But I though they were good…not so much on the middle one though.
