Heads up, Cali! I'm coming to Designer Con 2015!

So here goes! It looks like I'm gonna do it! If everything fares well, this November I will be vending at my *first* West Coast convention: Designer Con! I'm SO EXCITED! I've had my eye on Designer Con for awhile as a potential West Coast convention to attend. The art scene out there is so much up my alley, plus California in general has stolen so many of my creative friends from NYC. (I'm looking at you, DC Comics...)
 

I'm going to be sharing a booth with my pal Peter Goode Art and my husband Phil and I will be taking a much deserved vacation the rest of the week, visiting stuff like Disneyland, Universal, Little Tokyo... So many things to check out. I haven't been to LA since I was a little kid, and then it was only because my family had won a trip to Disneyland. I'm excited to go back! Plus bonus: since I'm going at the end of November I'll be getting out of NYC just when the weather has gotten shitty.

Peter Goode and his creepy awesome monster paintings.

PLEASE HELP SUPPORT ME this very expensive trip I'll be taking (I've calculated the costs of going and I kind of want to cry...)! Visit me at one of my upcoming convention appearances and buy some of my merch! Not in the area? Check out my Society 6 store! Or my Stickermule marketplace! I might even get my etsy store restocked one of these days, haha! 

But That's None of MY Business

Just a fun little piece of art that's part of a series I'm playing with that focuses on emoji's and memes and twists them around in my own style.

Based on the infamous Kermit sipping tea meme that can be seen around the internet.

Like it? Know someone who would? Be sure to check out my Society 6 store for all kinds of goodies with this art on it!

After 6 months of working on this great big beast of a piece I am finally finished! Now onto finding a printer, getting it framed and sending it off to Cali for Moon Crisis 2014!!

Not going to Cali for the show? Me neither. :\
Buuut you will SOON be able to order a print of your VERY own at Society6 or thru my future convention tables!

My Society 6 Merch in REAL LIFE!

This Christmas about 99% of my presents given were items purchased thru my Society 6 store. Admittedly my intentions for doing this were a bit selfish. They don't offer samples of your work (which is understandable as that could be easily abused...) so if I want to check out the quality of the plethora of items Society 6 has to offer with my artwork on it, I have to cough up the money myself. Also my family is notoriously hard to shop for, and having a gift of my artwork on usable items like coffee mugs, pillows and totebags makes it hard to regift or return. Plus they really dug them all, so yay! Double win! Check out my Society6 store HERE!

The Queen coffee mug: get it HERE

I was rather happy with the quality of printing on my items. Some colors were a little off or washed out (Society6 prints using RGB colors instead of CMYK colors...) especially on the mugs, but the printing on the totes and pillowcases is bright and beautiful.

Knockout tote: get it HERE

 Now I want to buy a ton of stuff from both mine and my friend's sites on Society6 for myself. I mean, one can never have too many tote bags, right? Also, all friends/family going forward get Society6 merch for their birthdays/holidays.

Blonde and Brunette Sailor Mermaid mugs:
  get them HERE and HERE.

 For the most part my only gripe now is that I can't buy my own pieces in bulk to have available at my convention table. Or I could, but the prices would have to be crazy expensive to make any sort of profit. Or I could buy one and label it 'Display Only' and then explain where they can get one, which would be a giant pain in my tookus.

Card Queen throw pillow: get it HERE.

Also what's cool about Society6 is that with every sale I get a percentage. Not necessarily enough to retire on as of yet, haha more like get a Venti from Starbucks. But I can definitely see how it can add up. Be sure to check it out for yourself! As I get more stuff I'll post it here!

Amor Eterno coffee mug: get it HERE.
