Hi! I live in the USA. I prefer flat, paper cards without 3d elements. I prefer hand drawn or painted, but please feel free to do other styles. I love glitter, shiny, shimmer, gold/silver leafing, metallics, glow in the dark. Please no digital prints/reproductions of your work, creepy bugs, clowns, Santas, politics, nudity/pinups/NSFW, curse words or blood/gore. Thank you for claiming me!

• Limited palette art - do a piece with black plus one other color. No other colors. (i.e. blue & black, yellow & black, green & black, gold & black etc.) The subject matter is your choice, it doesn’t have to be one of my themes from below. Example: If you pick pink as your color and you are painting a flower you cannot use green for the foliage. It will have to be shades of pink or black. You can change the values of each color (i.e. the very lightest to darkest shade for each of the two colors. So for blue, extremely pale blue to deep dark blue and for black you can use black, greys and white).

• Bird or birds
• A super sweet fluffy birdie
• fairy wren
• bird dressed for winter
• bird in clothing
• bird wearing a crown
• bird in a party hat
• steampunk, bionic or robot bird
• crows or ravens
• hens
• hens doing silly things or getting into trouble
• birdies doing silly things or getting into trouble

• Something you would find in a treasure chest or a dragon’s treasure hoard
• Geodes
• crystals
• gems
• jewel encrusted something (normal like jewelry or silly like a jewel encrusted wooden spoon)
• dragon egg
• Fabergé egg

• Enchanted forest (sweet or dark)
• fantasy creature (i.e. dragons, jackelope, wolpertinger, phoenix, unicorns etc.)
• cute creature/mouse/etc on a journey (i.e. something like a little mouse with backpack and walking stick walking in a strange world. Doesn’t have to be this exactly, but something that evokes the same kind of feeling.)
• It’s a zombie apocalypse! Here’s what’s in my backpack…OR Here’s my outfit and weapon of choice…
• stars

• art done in the style of James Christensen, Edward Gorey, Mouseguard, World of Warcraft, Creaks (amanita designs), machinarium (amanita designs)

Hi,I’m Linda. I live in coastal North Carolina with my husband and two black cats.

We moved here to be close to the ocean and mountains, and for warmer
weather. I really hate the cold, but I love the wintery images of snow,
snowflakes, ice, etc. My favorite time of year is actually spring. I love seeing the
new plants and baby animals.

I collect certain themes:

tropical scenes, flowers, beaches, drinks
vintage things, old lace, sayings, things from the past
anything with cats
alphabet
insects and spiders
positive affirmations
religious icons, including Madonna with child or Mary
Fandoms: Dr. Who, X-files, Supernatural, NCIS,Silent Witness
Rainbows
cariactures of famous people doing everyday things
interesting techniques (but, please, they must fit into my notebook pages so
nothing too thick or out of the size range)
flowers
artist favorite

I am not into cutesy, so no Disney or anime for me.

A funny character from your imagination is perfect, though!
I have one that I drew on my toy box when I was three!

I don’t mind swear words or adult themes as long as they are not mean
or abusive. Old sweary words are fun, like “conniption”, or my Dad’s favorite,
“Dagnabit”!

Just have fun…your creation will find a home in my collection.
