Rock and Roll Etsy

I just added a new and very unique item to my Etsy shop. Typically I add prints and photographs, but I thought someone would fall in love with this retro piece.

This olive green wallet has an overall distressed, vintage appearance, with perfectly worn edges, and a washed out look. The Led Zeppelin symbols representing Page, Jones, Bonham, and Plant are hand drawn on the outside front flap in black.

I made one of these wallets for myself and have gotten countless compliments while out shopping. Everyone wants to know where I got it (they all thought it was passed down from a rock and roll loving parent from the 70′s)! This is the perfect gift for a Led Zeppelin enthusiast, and at a very affordable price. Proudly display your love of Led Zeppelin and attract compliments from classic rock fans at the same time!

The wallet was originally purchased in H&M and has a 100% cotton shell exterior and a 100% nylon interior lining. It has two pockets for standard bills, six credit card slots, a zipper coin pouch, and six other compartments for all your money carrying needs. There are two metal snap closures and the wallet folds up to 3.5”x4.5” to fit perfectly in your pocket.

New Etsy Item

I am currently offering a smaller Framed Beech Wood Wave Print in my Like Tidal Water Etsy shop.

The frame is a 8 ¼”x6 ¼” table-top or wall frame. It is a hand-finished, hardwood, beech wood frame.

The background/matte paper compliments the frame and print beautifully. Since the paper is a natural, floral, handmade paper, each background is slightly different.

I am excited to be selling this new smaller print, because these will ship easily, and inexpensively. A lot of my customers ask if they can order prints without frames, to save on shipping. So this smaller print will be nice for people looking for an affordable framed piece of artwork.

I recently had the pleasure of photographing the ska-rock band (What’s In This Juice?) in one of my favorite natural food markets-Nature’s Pantry in Fishkill, New York. The owner and employees there were super helpful and friendly!

So go check out What’s In This Juice?

Spiffy new web site looks great!

Didn’t win, oh well! But LOOK my image is in the background of these shots, good enough for me! They were able to sell a bunch of the entries to benefit the Surfrider Foundation, which is pretty awesome! I wonder if mine sold, I love finding out my art work is hanging in some strangers house far away making people happy! I hope it did so it could benefit Surfrider Foundation, they do a good job of keeping our oceans happy!

Wish I Could Go!

I was just e-mailed the invite to the coloring contest art show. Oh man do I wish I could go and see all those awesome entries!

Coloring Contests Are NOT Just For Kids!

Winning that last art contest really put me in the mood to enter another one! This summer during vacation from school, I colored in an awesome surfing image by Andy Davis! This time it was to win $500! Andy Davis (one of my very, very favorite artists ever), puts out an annual coloring contest. You can find the image in Surfer Magazine or on his blog. I colored in the surfing drawing and sent it away to California a few weeks ago. There are a ton of entries and it was just fun to enter, but I will put it out to the universe! Anyway, they didn’t announce a winner yet, but they did upload 35 images to their Facebook page. They said they had hard decisions to make and they chose to enter these ones for Andy Davis gear. It is a people’s choice award and whoever gets the most LIKES on Facebook (same as the last contest) will win! I was happy to hear I was in the 35 they chose and that alone makes me very happy!

Be sure to go LIKE Andy Davis’ Facebook page:

I am going to be the runway photographer for the Vegetarian Expo I keep talking about! They are having a vegan fashion show and I can tell it is going to be good. I also get to do the behind the scenes, putting on makeup and getting ready stuff, and that should be a lot of fun. Seems like they are going to have some great companies displaying their clothing lines that day.

Vegan Fashion Show – My mug is at the bottom of this page too!

Also, mentioned here too!
