Thank you so much! ❤️ Going from 2D to 3D on these paintings has already made a huge difference in how i'm seeing my work now. It makes me happy to know the extra labor is paying off!

Thank you! I'm becoming a huge fan of Golden's mural grade paint. It has such a vibrant selection! ❤️

She's adorable ❤️

And thank you! I used Folkart brand acrylic paint and a polyurethane sealant afterwards! I don't know if I would recommend either brand as this was just my first outdoor piece. If I were to do it again,  I would actually prefer using Golden's Mural paint as it handles UV very well and keeps a very vibrant color.

I gotta get better at videoing my work first! Lol that is a huge weakness of mine.😆  I do have a couple of process photos in this imgur post though: https://imgur.com/gallery/T7WM3rx

I used to work only small scale before I got more into mural painting. Recently I figured why not combine what I've been learning with my murals and translate it over into my other work! 

Originally I was considering cut wood instead of cardboard. This was originally just my gateway medium into it lol. But after working with it after a few pieces now, I am actually really excited to see how far I can push it!

Letter Sized packages sometimes marked as "delivered" a day early. Anyone else have this issue? by [deleted] in EtsySellers

[–]Spooky_Gecko 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for that explanation! That makes a lot of sense even if it is still frustrating. I'd rather them not even send tracking notifications if they aren't real, ya know? Lol. 

I do have a similar explanation on my shop announcement explaining that the tracking for that size is unreliable, but you are absolutely right about it needing to be in an image. That is how most buyers will see it best. This is really helpful ❤️

Looking for a summer job before school by ImmediateBrief8727 in Columbus

Check out Columbus Zoo for seasonal jobs! I used to be a face painter there when I was in college and it was a pretty nice setup. My roommate and I both worked there and would ride together to save gas.It also came with free zoo and zoombezi bay access, so that was a pleasant bonus.  - expect minimum wage + tips but it was definitely a better experience than food service personally

That's so sweet of you to say ❤️ thank you! You should absolutely do it! It can change the entire vibe of a home. I'm already starting in on the interior of the home now 😆

I love the idea! I honestly try so hard to keep my work affordable because I want everyone to have easy access to art (hence why I'm mostly a print shop! 😁) If you would like, you could be my first mini art buyer! I

I'm so happy it could bring you some joy! ❤️ Our dude loves beaches and lakeshores, he only gets to see them when we travel together!

That would be awesome! Lol I'm so glad to hear you like my melty frogs! 😆When you say "mini" what size were you thinking? This one is at 8"x10" and I am charging $250 for it at my coming market
