New etsy business cards and dirty fingernails

I used GotPrint.com to make these even though there are other great (sometimes free) options (Vistaprint.com, Moo.com) pretty much because you can request a free samples kit which has all the gloss/matte finishes, different thicknesses, coatings, etc.  I really really liked that I could hold little 2.5" x 3" pieces of paper in my hand before I ordered.  They only give you an online/emailed proof though, which really scared me because my monitor and my boyfriend's monitor look radically different, so I wasn't sure if the image was going to print totally blown out or not (it didn't, so my monitor isn't as off as I thought!), but it turned out fine.

Now I just need to work on designing a fine art business card (and I'm thinking rounded corners!)...

my very first solo show!

Two weeks ago I set up my first solo show in the McLanahan Gallery at Penn State Altoona in Altoona, PA.  It's a part of the Ivyside Juried Art Exhibitions.  It runs from January 10 - March 3, 2013. I made a few new 2D pieces for the show recently.  Here are some not-the-best photos I took.  I'll take better ones when I go back to the gallery, probably a couple more times.

Here's a link about the show: http://www.altoona.psu.edu/now/news.php?value=4005

Baby B Jumps over Pie/Fourth of July, 19" x 14", watercolor and ink, 2012.

Finished this a few months ago and never posted it.  I had to wait to do the table cloth until I could buy an appropriate piece of fabric for it.  I have a nice oval frame for this one, but unfortunately the glass broke so I'll to keep looking for another.
