Well, my migraine finally broke after several days (during which I still managed to do several tattoos, because I am a superhero…or at least, because I wore superhero underpants. That’s the same thing, right?), and I got in a lot of painting yesterday. I finally finished two pieces I’ve been working on forever. Here’s the first, which is a little still life I have sitting in my tattoo studio room. I posted it on Facebook and asked for suggestions for naming it. Someone suggested “Lavender Blue,” which put that damn song (for a truly obnoxious rebooted version of the song, click here) in my head for the last 24+ hours, so I’ve decided to be evil and put an ear worm out there for everyone who reads the painting title. Mwuahahahaaaaa! I give you, “Dilly Dilly.”
Dilly Dilly 9″ x 12″ oil on board $300
The original is available here. You can find prints and mugs and greeting cards and a million other fun stuffsies here and here and here.

Looks good, Emily. Reminds me that I need to branch out beyond Threadless though. How many print on demand websites are you on?

Reminds me that I need to get onto Threadless! I’m currently active on RedBubble, FineArtAmerica, CafePress, and on a more limited scope on VIDA. Technically I’m on a couple others, like Society Six, but I found their sites too cumbersome to navigate so haven’t used them in ages.

I’ve tried a few others, but tees on Threadless is the only thing I’ve had any luck with. I want to do Society 6, but the UI is just… Woefull…

I sell a crap ton of stickers on RedBubble, but only make $0.20 – $1 on them, so you have to sell a lot to make any actual money. I like the variety of products that CafePress offers. FineArtAmerica has a really good community of artists that work to promote each other’s work, which is helpful at first, but eventually you kind of plateau and it’s not worth the extra work.
