    http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?listing_id=25201295

    It’s just a darling drawing. Love the green dress and that bear is too cute!! I’ve admired this print for so long and I might need to get it soon =)

  3. I just purchased this item, not only is it my favorite item: http://www.etsy.com/view_transaction.php?transaction_id=17043811

    But is is so fitting for a key chain! “The get away” Well isn’t that what we do , when we drive our cars?? Get away. ๐Ÿ˜‰

    I remember rocking on my pony when I was a child, and oh the wonders I beheld. Lands and valleys that held many adventures in my childhoods minds eye. I would spend hours on that hobby horse! It was my favorite toy!

  4. It’s hard to pick just one thing but I’ve loved The Runaway since I first saw it so the print would be my favourite; here’s the link http://www.gorjussart.com/store/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=66_79&products_id=321

  5. I really love this black bag : http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?listing_id=22662804
    It is so cute, and the black color of the bag reveals the sweetness of your artwork.

    I like your blog too ๐Ÿ˜‰

  6. yes very hard to just pick one of them, well my choice will have to be, Rainy Daze original sketch … i have.e asked hubby for it at Christmas , fingers crossed you still have it ..

    http://www.gorjussart.com/store/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=71&products_id=712

  7. So hard Suzanne to chose just ONE item ! But finally I decided: a bookmark because I am a huuuuuuuge reader since forever, and this one http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?listing_id=26365572 because I’m a witch who hearts Samhain and waits all year long the end of October to celebrate ๐Ÿ˜‰

  8. Hi there! How are you? Hope you are well! This is my first time posting here! I just LOVE ALL of you artwork!! It is FABULOUS!! Just wish I caould get some here in the US! Haha! That or come an visit there!!! Thank you for sharing your art! My FAVE is the Ruby Pendant! First of all, I LOVE her name and the color! I would have to second, that my birthstone happens to be Ruby!! SO it is PERFECT, as is ALL of your things! Thanks!!

    Take care!

  9. My fav item is the original I found my family in a book http://www.gorjussart.com/store/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=71&products_id=642 when it came out I saw it and instantly got it, while i was deciding if I could really afford it it was sold ๐Ÿ™ I wish I hadn’t delayed and I had got it when i saw it,

    Am currently saving for some large canvasses i can’t wait to own x

  10. This post introduced me to my new favorite object, which is the I Love You Little Rabbit tote! http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?ref=vl_other_1&listing_id=26712781
    I love the expression on the gorjuss girl’s face, and the sweet little rabbit! I also like the size of the bag–it would be perfect for carrying a book or a snack–or my wallet and keys when I’m running out on a quick errand!

  11. I like the original art piece: “ORIGINAL painting – 6 x 6 – The Two Stars
    This is an original 6″ x 6″ stretched canvas painting.. gallery wrapped, painted around the edges so no framing required, just hang it on your wall and enjoy!” that is located at http://www.gorjussart.com/store/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=71&products_id=546 because it is a painting and it would look adorable in a little nook at the top of my stairs leading to the bedrooms.

  12. I love tote bags. Don’t want this to sound tooo gorpy, but as I am disabled and use a wheelchair when I am out shopping, tote bags are wonderful to keep small items in because they are not bulky and I can keep it close to me and if someone tries to grab it, I can multi task with the chair. lol

  15. I love this print because her painting the rainbow is a reminder that God is and artist and he loves art, the colors, the mediums, the creativity. Wonderful work!

    http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?ref=vl_other_2&listing_id=20371653

  16. My favorite item right now is the large organic totes that you offer. I love this one – http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?listing_id=21423708

    BUT I’m also hoping you’ll make a tote with this print http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?listing_id=22784795 or this print http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?listing_id=26313689 on it because these are my favorites! ๐Ÿ™‚

  17. I love the Alice tote: http://www.gorjussart.com/store/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=90&products_id=710. I am a huge Alice in Wonderland fan, so combined with being a Gorjuss Girl, how could it not be my favorite thing? : )

    XO

  18. It’s a tough choice, but if I could buy something right now and had to choose one thing I think I’d get the Heartless print: http://www.gorjussart.com/store/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=66_76&products_id=720 ๐Ÿ™‚

  19. My favorite is http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?listing_id=26671849,
    Canvas Bag, I love Polar Bears and I am addicted to collecting Canvas Bags.
    And what better then my favorite bag with my favorite artist on it.

    hugs

    The Calm After the Storm is my favorite because it represents my two girls and I. This is probably the closest we get to looking like Gorjuss.

    My older daughter is always wide awake even if we are all supposed to be sleeping. And both of my girls love their books and their stuffed animals – and are not always willing to share everything. So while one daughter keeps hold of that one stuffed animal, they’ll somewhat share that one book.

    *****
    Thank you for sharing the pics from the gallery. Looks like an exciting crowd in there! :oD

    Can’t wait to see the new paintings as always! Have a Gorjuss weekend!!!

  21. Without a doubt, Little Annie is my favorite. She’s adorable with that red hair and those cute little freckles!! Love her hair style with the bangs and that curious expression on her face. Couldn’t ya just hug her. LOL She always makes me smile.

    http://www.gorjussart.com/store/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=66_75&products_id=247

  22. Here’s the url of my fav item:

    http://www.gorjussart.com/store/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=66_76&products_id=720

    The print of Heartless. I adore this painting and if money weren’t an issue in my home, I’d purchase a 16X20 canvas wrap. I am saving my pennies for a print though. The girl in Heartless makes the title an oxymoron- she is clutching her beloved teddy with care even though her heart is flown away to the ground. To me it means that no matter how many times your heart gets torn out, as long as you have that one someone to love it’ll be OK.

    Sorry for a long post.:-)

  23. Congrats on what looks like a fabulous show.
    My favorite item (TOUGH TOUGH choice!) is this pink canvas bag. It caught my eye when it first came out because of the beautiful color. Love the image on it and have kept my eye on it still! LOL

    http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?listing_id=24000608

  24. My very favorite item is The Runaway http://www.gorjussart.com/store/index.php?main_page=product_info&products_id=321&zenid=1ed43a929b111b5f50807ca6686c6a46

  29. My favourite item is this lovely bookmark with The Runaway. I have loved Unicorns for as long as I can remember, something about them just pulls me right to them lol I also love your Gorjuss girls, they are so whimsical and enchanting…a perfect match for the magical and mystical Unicorn ๐Ÿ™‚ I also read a lot and use all my Unicorn bookmarks often so this would really be handy to use for me!

    http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?listing_id=26006895

    The Take Me Away With You Print. I don’t why I love it so much I just do. It would be perfect to hang above my bed and would look beautiful against my purple walls. It is just so whimsical and dreamy and I could get lost in fantasy for hours just looking at it. It just really captures my imagintion and I will be saving up to get it! xx

  31. I hope I’m not late ๐Ÿ™‚
