Help for Haiti

The recent earthquake in Haiti has devastated children and families in the Western Hemisphere's poorest nation. The magnitude 7.0 earthquake struck just ten miles from the heart of Port-au-Prince, Haiti's capital, where people are left to search through rubble in hopes of finding loved ones.

Emergency supplies such as food, clean water and shelter are desperately needed.

Here is how I'm helping. Any sales this week on items that are 40% off (non originals) already will have 20% donated to the Red Cross. Any sales on full price items (originals) that I've listed here will have 50% donated to YWAM Haiti Relief. Click on my banner above to go to my Etsy shop.

So just so we're clear. All originals are now normal priced and will have 50% of the profits donated and all sales items will have 20% donated.

I've added some new items that haven't been listed in a long time because they were at a local shop.

Please help me do my part for Haiti and get some cool art in the process!! Thank you for looking!

Priority changes = BIG SALES for you!

I am offering 40% OFF everything in my ArtFire and Etsy shop, even sales items. I just want it gone and need to start fresh! 40% OFF until it's all gone!

Below is a little blurb. If you'd like to read more about why I'm doing this you can visit my new blog: Lo Mama Adventures. Thank you!

Starting today I am going to only create art for Bad Girls Project 52 (I'm on the design team for a year) and create art for fun and with Lorelei. If I sell a piece of art because someone likes it, then great! I'm not going to mass promote it on Twitter, here and Facebook it's such a waste of time and takes up too much of my time with little or no response. Life is too short to live it online trying to make your life grand. Yeah there are critics who will say you need something for you, you need a hobby. Yes that's right but I have a responsibility to my girl and there is always time for hobbies in the future. I'm not quitting all together I'm just changing my focus. I feel like there will be a blessing for her and for me in this. She needs me and I need her. I'm going to start exploring hobbies with her and nurturing her the way I should be. Just typing this is freeing and I know I'm making the right decision. Follow us on this journey if you like. This blog is where I'm going to post our grand adventures and times together. Her and I. Because of that I need less online activities to maintain. Life is too short people!! I hope you understand!

Christmas is coming and so are the sales!!!

Art Walk

Create!, originally uploaded by creativeFlutter AKA MazerDesign.

Hi all,

Just wanted to write a little about the art walk I had been posting about earlier. Well it was this weekend and it was the first really nice weather we've had which I thought would bring the crowds, um no. Not up here! Everyone was busy doing things outside, why not it was the first gorgeous day in a really long time up in the cold north country! Anyways we had spurts of people come in. Nobody really buying anything but I got lots of great feedback. My art will be up for a few more weeks at the Lily Pond so if you're nearby go check it out, it's much better in person! I did sell the sweet little piece above named "Create" to a sweet young lady named Ella. She was 8 and 3/4 years old and came in with her mother Dena who also purchased my new piece Happy Happy for her office. Ella is very creative and just loved this and the colors were her favorite. They were my sales for the day which was great because they were so appreciative of my art and gave me great feedback! It was nice to be so appreciated. I was displaying next to my friends from the Lily Pond who do amazing bead work that I would have no patience for! I was honored they asked me to be a part of it!! All in all it was a good day!!!

Thanks to all who came and especially Devin and Pauline from the Lily Pond.

Art Walk this weekend!!

Hi all!!

I'm blogging to let you know if you're local you can check out my art in person and meet me! I'd love to meet you!! My art is featured in the annual art walk in Plattsburgh which takes place on Saturday the 25th from 4-6 pm. I have about 35 pieces available for purchase as well as prints and bookmarks. The weather is supposed to be gorgeous so we should have an awesome turn out!

I'm also excited because my art made it into the paper too. So much cool artsy stuff going on!

If you haven't voted yet check out my last blog post and please vote for my art. I could win a solo exhibition in NYC! Voting is open until 5/1.

Hope you all have a fabulous weekend and if you are local come on down to the Lily Pond in Downtown Plattsburgh!
