A few arts

Got another card for the kennel Club Deck, the Brittany Spaniel. I used to groom a few of them back when I worked at a grooming shop, very sweet dogs..a few of them had a very proud/haughty demeanor..but I liked them for that.

Also finished or rather/almost finished the leopard painting and planning another painting, not sure of what just yet.

OOH and does anyone know of a good place where I can buy cheaply priced but good quality mat board?? I need to start matting pieces for AC and I really don't want to pay the outrageous prices of mat board at Michaels. So if anyone has websites or good places to go in Washington state, I'd greatly appreciate it!

The finished leopard piece..the photo desaturated some of the colors..but I shall take better pictures tomorrow and tweak things that are bugging me. Piece will be called 'I Will Protect you'..roughly 10.5 x 13 inches

And an ambigram concept for the back of the kennel club deck..they will likely not use it but I had fun designing it nonetheless. Hopefully you can read that it says 'TheKennelClub'

Oh my goodness! I saw this and my bad day just went out the window. O_O *clings to both you and the smooshy lion* You makes me zeeee happpyyyyY!

:) I really got all misty looking at the painting. Such pretties!

I can't help you too much with the mats, but my roomie's mother is a professional artist (Sue Moon!! :D :D), and I can ask her where she gets her stuff.

Speaking of art supplies, did you still need the tablet pen. o_o? If ya still do, I've got it sitting in my apartment, ugh, my email is the same as my LJ username at gmail.com.

*clings to smoooshy lion too and drools a little* Pink makes me droool XD! o_o not sure if thats a good thing *twirlFLAP*

and chyes do ask :)..any info is better than no info! I appreciate that in advance!

and as for the pen..YESS..my tablet is being a spaz..it started working again but I think it is the pen..when it goes spazzy the pen nib feels odd against the tablet surface..so it probably shifts every now and then or I drop it one too many times..ehe...I'll e-mail you later or just leave a comment with my addy in your journal..WOOHHH stalk meh *wants a staaalkkkeerrrr*

*whines and snivvels* :D!

Hmmmm, okay. >:D I'm gonna leave candies at your door, and pen nibs that will dance around in small circles going "Roo, haaa, laaa, raaahh!!!"

Then they will take my smooshy lion and make him their king. O_o Or something. *snicker, snicker*

Yay, you will have a replacement pen for more pretties!

I also asked my roomie's Ma where she gets her stuff, and she says she has a supply place that she gets them from in Mexico, so uh, that wasn't much help to you. :(
