Here's a place to check daily for great ART FOR THE HOLIDAYS Christmas shopping with W.W.A.O

who or what is W.W.A.O ?
Worldwide Women Artists is an international collective of women artists showing and selling our original art through the worldwide web. As women artists, we give birth to our ideas in a variety of styles and media. We embrace the diversity of each other's work, celebrating the joy of creating our art and sharing it with the world.

Our artists sell their own original inspired creations. You won't find any mass-produced, soulless work here. We work in a variety of styles and artistic media.
Remembrance Day - also known as Poppy Day, Armistice Day (the event it commemorates) or Veterans Day - is a day to commemorate the sacrifices of members of the armed forces and of civilians in times of war, specifically since the First World War. It is observed on 11 November to recall the end of World War I on that date in 1918. (Major hostilities of World War I were formally ended at the 11th hour of the 11th day of the 11th month of 1918 with the German signing of the Armistice.) The day was specifically dedicated by King George V, on 7 November 1919, to the observance of members of the armed forces who were killed during war; this was possibly done upon the suggestion of Edward George Honey to Wellesley Tudor Pole, who established two ceremonial periods of remembrance based on events in 1917.


Take 2 min at 11 am, to think about those who gave their lives so that we could live as we do.

Ok another part of my weirdness. Not really art related, but then again she IS wearing her artists garb.

She arrived from Rising today! My daughter and I have been playing all morning. Olivia is my alter ego.
My latest in the dime store dollies project. This was one of those truly ugly Bratz baby rip off dolls. Her head and limbs kept falling off. I remounted the head using elastics around the neck knob to hold it firm, and glued the arms and legs into place using a type of white glue, but much stronger.

She was primed and them hand painted with artists acrylics. I painted her T-shirt and added little "dance pants” striped stockings and Mary-Jane shoes in paint.

I really like the way her eyes turned out this time.

She will be available on Etsy in the near future.

I spent a part of my childhood growing up in Mexico. The Day of the dead Celebrations were an amazing thing to experience.Sugar Skulls and chocolate coffins! What more could a weird little kid like me ask for!

Although I have mixed feelings about appropriating the customs of other cultures, I have such a fondness for these images I needed to work one out.

not completely sure that I'm happy with this. I need to rework parts I think.

Alice Lino Cut Print

It is exciting! I was so pleasantly surprised, some of the bits like the eyes /lips were pretty detailed I wasn't sure they were going to work out.
The easy cut definitely helped with that!
She's a dark Alice if she remains Alice at all, getting the lino ready to print up some images.So far not major injuries to my hands

You can find the Treasury here: It's my birthday in a parallel Universe" unitll Nov 1st
Lots of great art in this one too!
The thing that makes me insane is the morning wait for the "phone call" . The call itself is what makes me insane. I HATE the phone ringing and the fact that it goes off between 6 - 7 am while it's still dark makes it worse. I'm the only one awake, so I feel like I have to catch it quick.It's right here beside me but it still causes me anxiety. I have Q107 playing on the computer so I don't feel completely alone.Yet still somehow my heart starts to race after 6:00am, waiting for that SOUND.

Ah yes another Phobia in the wonderful wacky world of my brain.

alice through the looking glass WIP

this is a drawing I've had roughed out on illustration board for about a year now. Decided I needed to work on it. Not sure how much time I have considering all the things that I should be getting done, but at least I can bring it to the jobby job.

So Cafepress allows you to make as many "free" stores as you want, the only draw back is you have to have only one image per product.
So I have created Stores for each Image I wanted to share. ( with the exception of wickeddollz which has a selection of stuff)

The link for each image is above the picture :D

New Website
Originally uploaded by wickedollz
I found a web space for free flash websites...well I'm ALL ABOUT THE FREE, although I do pay when I find something I truly enjoy or find useful. I have looked at other "Free Flash" sites, and most of them seem pretty lame. WIX however is pretty cool.There is a lot of lag at times, but I think that may work itself out. or it could be my connection. So that being said I am recommending it if your looking to create a slick flash site. Although I would always keep a basic HTML site available for people who don't want flash.
SO here si my Falshy Flash site, it's still in a beta condition, but feel free to pop by and post a comment here.
