Flower of the World

Posted on April 27, 2018 by Victoria

Happy Friday, everyone! Have some art!

EDIT: This item has been claimed.

I am, indeed, still working through this backlog of physical pieces of art I’ve got for sale, and this time I’m putting up a mandala I call Flower of the World.

This one was originally designed digitally, printed on watercolor paper, and then I practiced blending shades and hues and gradients. In the end, it ended up a sort of mass of flowered plants floating on the water in the darkness of space studded with stars.

Yes, stars. The background of this piece features silver-tone metallic watercolor speckles and dots that do give it a little sparkle. This should give some idea what it looks like in person:

As usual, this went out first to Patrons, but now it’s available to the general public. :) Flower of the World is 8″x8″ unframed, 14″x14″ framed as shown above, on 140lb cold press watercolor paper, with the outlines printed with regular laser toner (later inked over) and colored with watercolor paints. $40 unframed ($60 framed as shown) plus shipping. Email me if you’re interested.

Tree in the Grass

Posted on April 11, 2018 by Victoria

The catalog keeps growing

I am, yes, slowly catching up on the backlog of physical art that should be for sale. :)

This is a piece I completed back at the end of 2016, when I first started going beyond plain trees without background.

Tree in the Grass, watercolor and pen on paper

This piece is watercolor for the background and ink for the tree itself, all hand painted/drawn on 4″x6″ 140lb. watercolor paper. This is an entirely original and one-of-one piece, not a print.  Available now, $40 unframed or $55 framed, plus shipping.

Please email me if you’re interested; payment preferred via PayPal.

As a reminder, patrons get first dibs on new pieces (and at a discount).  You can get in on that at my Patreon for not a whole lot per month.

It Grows As It Flows

Posted on April 4, 2018 by Victoria

Because Naming Is My Strong Suit (or Something)

Today I’ve got a semi-original piece I’m making available to you all. It’s one of my first in this style – the outlines were laser printed on watercolor paper, and the coloring was done by hand with watercolors. I suppose I could be fancy and call it “mixed media” but that’s not how I roll.

Anyway, after a long dive into my file folders and RedBubble and blog site, I finally determined that this one had no name and have thus given it the title “It Grows As It Flows”.

It Grows As It Flows – 8.5″x8.5″ watercolor on paper

8.5″x8.5″, toner and watercolor on watercolor paper, $45 plus shipping.   Please message or email me if you’re interested; payment preferred via PayPal.

Mandala itself is 7.5″ round, so I would recommend a floating frame, rather than trying to cut down for an 8″ frame.

As a reminder, patrons get first dibs on new pieces (and at a discount).  You can get in on that at my Patreon for not a whole lot per month.

Posted on April 2, 2018 by Victoria

Monday! Mandala! Monday! Mandala! Roundup hoooooooo!

Welcome to April and the Monday Mandala Roundup post for March!  As with previous MMR posts, this covers a month of the Monday Mandalas posted publicly on my Patreon page.

Click the images to go to the full page on Patreon (these are snippets, Patreon has the full images).

Also, I’m considering uploading some of these to RedBubble to make into die-cut stickers (typically 3×3″, high-quality).  However, it would take some investment of time.  If you would purchase some of these, please let me know in the comments.

Spring is here, oh yes Spring is here, life is skittles and life is beer

It is Springtime! Finally! Oh yes, hooray!

Thus it is that I am bringing to you all a new piece, which I’m calling Flowering of Light!  This mandala was designed, drawn, and colored entirely on the paper, no digital processes involved. I completed it back in October, and am finally bringing it out into the light.
