eBay is my Concubine

Mon Aug 31, 2009, 12:07 PM
Don't ask why I titled this journal as such, but I do love eBay. Buying and selling. Lately I've bought a few small ACEO (art cards at 2.5 x 3.5). This is the first time I've actually won auctions for original art. It is really fun and addictive! It is also interesting to see how other artists selling their work go about it. I've sold in the past, but never bought so this is definitely a good learning experience (being on the other side, you know).

This here: [link] is a link to my listings on eBay. I sell ACEO art cards, usually about animals. Many examples can be found in my gallery. I am also trying to sell some Michael Jackson artwork there. The Michael auctions are "Giving Works" auctions, meaning a percentage goes towards charity. As always, I'm available for commissions and more information on that can be found at my website here [link]

Feel free to check out my auctions and let me know what you think of the auction layouts (I love sparkle borders! But maybe they are distracting?)

Anywiz, thanks for reading my journal! :)

Street photography is NOT a photograph of an empty street, traffic lights or graffiti. If you want to find out what street photography is really about check out the The Yard Collective [link]

Thank you Amanda. I really would of liked for the colors to be more brillant, but I didn't have the correct colors. But it came out pretty good overall!

Hey,

How are you? I'm trying something new with the Bird of Paradise. It's hard to blend those color pencils.
Bye for now!
:iconcatwomanjedi:
Hey!! Yeah colored pencils are hard to blend with for sure...have you ever seen woodless colored pencils? I really like them, but they are still hard to blend.

Humm, I can't say I have seen woodless color pencils. I mean I haven't really looked for them. Are they better some how? I really like the look and the results!

Yes, they are hard to blend, but I like the challenge!
