About Me:
I'm new and still trying to figure out how this site works! Apologies if my responses are slow and if things look a bit boring.

I'm a freelance fantasy artist, programmer, and history tour guide in Singapore. I'm currently working on updating my website and making it easier for people to shop for my stuff. I used to love eBay (now I'm looking for other venues) and am hoping to sell on etsy soon too.

I love painting ACEOs, and am open to artist trades of any sort. I'm addicted to handmade soaps and craft items, and anything secondhand.

At the local craft fair where I paint portraits, my market is much the same, except it becomes more diverse in age and national background. Most of my customers are very Internet savvy.

Generally, I'… Continue

June MAAD-ness

Portrait Day on June 7th was smashing--how I missed you! I'd forgotten how much fun you could be--even if some sitters move too much. ;) Got to do 9 paintings all together. Sold one-third of them--which isn't great as sales rates go, but not too bad considering how many artists were there, so that portrait-sitters had at least 12-15 completed portraits at any time to choose to purchase. Hrmm. I wonder if the other artists are like me--bringing home and stashing the unsold ones in a drawer until… Continue

Lovely!

For the first Saturday in a long time I'll be able to make it to MAAD tomorrow. I think I haven't been to this craft fair since January or February, and I miss the atmosphere--the deejay has my taste in music, and there's something enjoyable (or mildly masochistic?) about frenetically working on producing a full-colour portrait every 15 minutes or so for 5 hours. I think painting fast is a good skill to develop, it helps foster bravery i… Continue

etsy was a bust for me! I thought the same thing ... but I found ebay works ... if you work it ~

but there's NO way to "work" etsy ~ unless you want to spend way more than you would spend on an ebay store and do their showcases!!
