Celtic Cutout


I can't believe I forgot to put this picture up on here.  Its from my deviant art gallery.

Feel Free To Comment And Stuff!

I appreciate all kinds of input: saying hi, saying you like something, telling me what I'm doing wrong, commission some fancy piece of artwork, whatever.


I am certainly not upset by any lack of response, but your opinions are welcome, and helpful to me.

Klienes Ornamentenbuch


So I got this new book the other day, 800 Classic Ornaments And Designs,  Its a Dover book, apparently they plundered the designs from a 'rare mid-19th-century style book' called Kleines Ornamentenbuch published circa 1843.

I liked the pictures, so I thought, just for fun, since I've mostly been doing 800's pictures (book of Kells) maybe I'd try 1800's (Victorian stuff apparently).

Copying acanthus leaves really is a lot of fun.  As per usual, I slapped these pictures up on my deviant art.

I Actually Sold Something On Etsy!

I got my first sale on my etsy shop the other day, specifically my stellated iteration of the five platonic solids.  I'm just really excited about that, its so much fun to be able to pack them up, ship it off, and make money off the internet!

1000 Views!

I just got my first thousand views.  A big thank you to everyone who checked out my website here!  Unfortunately most of those views were probably from me.  You see blogger counts it as pageviews  when I look at a page, edit something, post something, get too close to the monitor, or probably even just think about it in my sleep!

Still, I feel like having a pageview counter is good as a small token in honor of those who have visited my blog.  I really appreciate it.

It'd been a while since I did any real Celtic designs with zoomorphs and stuff.  I'll draw a more Kells-like version soon, with pointy snouts, intricate knotwork, and forked tails.  For some strange reason, this picture reminds me ever so slightly of art nouveau, so I may need to do a really fancy version of it too.

As with all of my pictures, this one may be found on my deviantart gallery, here.
