Before I start, Lorna and Maddy… behave yourselves!!!!

Everyone else, take a gold star and stick it up on the chart…well done, 5 minutes golden time off Lorna & Maddy for being naughty….and talking in class.

OUCHIES UPDATE

Todays Chiropractor session was a good one, and Suzanne is pretty much pain free right up to the point she paid for it. She is comfortable tonight and hoping this is a sign for things to come… and on a day like this….

…who could possibly feel unwell. It is a truly beautiful Scottish summer day…. even though I’m pretty sure its not summer yet. Its looking good and the blooms on the trees in the street have become gorjuss themselves..

PAINT PENS 2: THE RESULT

Suzanne reached the end of her paint pen experiment late last night, now she is planning to add some more details such as a tree to this picture but she is very happy with the way it turned out.

These pens have now given Suzanne the chance to make canvas paintings again untill she is fit enough to sit at the easel, it will also give her the ability to add fine detail to her paintings. This painting will be available to buy once she has added the finnishing details that she feels it needs.

Then again we may offer it as a prize in this Fridays “FRIDAY NIGHT GIVE AWAY“.. yup take this as your 4 day warning….

ORIGINAL WORKS

We have a lot of queries asking about how to buy originals of Suzannes work, sometimes the original is a sketch, sometimes a print will have been made entirely on the computer and so no original exists. If you are interested in buying an original sketch of your favourite painting/print, check out Suzannes Etsy page first here. It is currently empty but we are working on that, if what you want is not there then please drop us a little mail with what you’re looking for and we’ll check the sketchbooks for it and give you a price. Prices for Original Sketches start at $90.

We have some original Acrylic Canvas paintings currently available… and here is one of the newest paintings Suzanne has done, Inspired by Sweeney Todd (and in part Johnny Depp, not saying which part.. oh man thats me for detention with Lorna and Maddy now). It’s titled “Blue Haze”.

Blue Haze is available for the reasonable price of $200, it is 40cm x 30 x 2cm. 12″ x 16″ x 0.75″in dimension and sits lovely on your wall.

Our next painting has been around for a little while, its called “They Love Me Not”, if you have a blood red room, this is the perfect painting for you… lol. Its 40cm x 50cm x 4cm, which is 20″x16″ x 1.5″.

NEW AMI PACK

Suzanne today has made moves to getting the new AMI pack underway, and so I get the job of sneaking you a peek of two sketches destined for the new pack… to wet your whistles so to speak..

I can also show you these in the stage of being coloured….

Suzys poota..

So its all underway and with her current pain releif we hope to get a pack out in the next few weeks, and we are looking at an ACEO pack as well.. again I’ll keep you informed of all developments as they happen.

Now on to some SERIOUS matters that I feel you all should be made aware of.

 

DOLLFIE ABUSE

I have uncovered a shocking discovery….. Suzannes recent family addition does not have a bed to sleep in, instead she is locked away inside a cardboard box. This shocking practise can not be allowed to happen, so Im asking you all to find a nice bed for Suzannes Dollfie… Heres the shocking evidence…

dollfie foe 2

Not just that…. she still hasnt been named.. we’ve had one suggestion by Christina our recent competition winner, she suggested “Cora”… so we could really use some help..

 

Well goodnight to you all, its home time… and I’ve set you homework and I expect it done… Lorna and Maddy, stay behind… you both have detention…eek so do I..

Classes will resume as normal tommorrow…

    anyone bring snacks to this detention???

    all in good fun

  5. I have some toffees… been in my pockets a while tho…

    Sticking it up on the board is hardly open to rude interpretation is it??
    lol..

    Im gonna have to watch you guys!!

  6. Hmm, I have a corner at my house for the naughty ones, it may have some crumbs in it though from my toddlers getting their own time outs. lol. The new pictures are amazing, Suzanne sounds like she’s feeling better and that’s definitely exciting to hear. I had to giggle about the doll needing a bed, no extra beds here. 🙂 Sorry the name doesn’t fit, looks like she’ll just be “doll” for a while.

    How about one of these? (lol)
    Aliana, Aveen, Edessa, Evi, Jara, Keela, Trinetty, Zaylie (I looked for unusual names… she’s quite an unusual doll)

  7. I suggest titling the new bathtub print either bears ‘n bubbles or teddies, duckies and bubblies.

    Also, I love the diverse new ACEOs. Any chance any of those will become bookmarks? I just discovered Suzanne’s work, and I love it.

  8. here are 2 doll name suggestions- i went with a elvin theme:

    AILSA-from scottish 😛 means “elf victory” apparently

    LIVIA-probably meaning elf army…also possibly from latin and meaning “bluish”…perfect no?

  9. oooh I like Livia Maddy 🙂 she is a beautiful doll

  10. Great to hear that Suzanne is feeling better. The new art is fantastic. Can’t wait to see more.

    As far as maddy and Lorna, well I don’t know what to tell you about the two of them…lol. Lorna is usually very well behaved…lol. But maddy, well she is definately the one to watch. But we all love her! She keeps us hoppin’! *sneeks into detention to give maddy and Lorna some beer and pizza* Shhh don’t tell.

    Hmmm….names for the doll. My daughter use to collect dolls so she was always good at naming them. How about: Larkin, Felicia, Bella, Chloe, Zoey, or Tessa.

  11. OOO pizza wow thank you kim…This detention sounds great lol…How about Denny for dolls name? I think it is sweet

    hugs

    Lorna xxxx

  12. *smells pizza* I hope you two are not eating in class!!!! I hope you have enough for everyone else!!!

  13. The new painting looks wonderful Suzanne! I saw that she got the new girl finished and had to come say that! lol.

  14. I’m so glad you’re feeling better, Suzanne! I love the new art, wow!!
