In our larger bathroom at the tattoo studio, we had a wall with no art on it still, so S finally told me to buy a large canvas and make something new to hang there. Squeeee! Any excuse to make big art. You know I love me some figurative art, so, I painted this:

Introspection 36″ x 36″ oil on canvas

But because it’s a tattoo studio, I didn’t stop there, lol:

That Tattoo Girl_compressed

That Tattoo Girl 36″ x 36″ oil on canvas

That’s right, I gave her a full tattoo sleeve, because hell yeah.

Both images are available as prints and on various merchandise on Fine Art America (here and here), RedBubble (here and here), and CafePress (here and here).

Thingsies I Want To Wear

Y’all. There are women who make matching outfits for themselves and their kids. There are kids who make matching outfits for themselves and their dolls. And then there’s me. I want to dress like my paintings all the time. Allsies. For my birthday, I splurged and got one of my paintings printed onto a dress. I’d been coveting this thing for months. I’m a serious coveter. If there was a gold medal in coveting clothes that look like your paintings, I’d win that shit. Here is me, in my painting.

Where’d Emily go? Can’t find her. Oh wait, there she is, blending in with her painting!!

I even wore my art to an art opening that celebrated last year’s grant winners from the United Arts Council. Because I’m cool like that. And then I stood next to one of my paintings holding my book that I won the grant for. And every time someone complimented me on my dress, I opened up my book to this painting and awkwardly showed them how “awesome” I am. Because, again, I’m cool like that. And also because I’m totally terrified in situations like that and forget that I know how to speak English (not the best thing when you supposedly wrote a book in English).

Who’s obsessed with elephants? I swear, it’s not me.

Luckily (or unfortunately, depending on your perspective), there are sites for such obsessions as putting your artwork on all sorts of merchandis-y crap (I’ve already shared several examples of my art on swag with you here and here). And probably support groups. And I discovered a new site. And now I want all the thingsies. There’s just one sliiiiiight glitch. I don’t have all the monies. But if I did, holy shit. I’d dress only in my own artwork. Fuck LuLaRoe. This is LuLaEm.

I’m totally addicted to VIDA design now. A few examples of the schtuffs that I want:

VIDA 1.png

Release Sleeveless Top

 

VIDA 2.png

Evening Poppies Sheer Wrap

VIDA 3.png

Swirlie Tree Tank Top

VIDA 4.png

Drippings Pendant

VIDA 5.png

Remember Me Tote

VIDA 6.png

Drippings Wrap

VIDA 8.png

Elementally, He Is Love Scarf

And yes, I’m just getting started. Now that I’ve discovered this site, I can’t stop. I can’t actually buy any of the things I’m making, but a girl can dream. Someday, when I’m rich and hopefully not too famous (a girl does like to be able to run to the grocery store without getting all dolled up for the paparazzi), I will match every painting I’ve ever made. Yaaaaaaaaasssssss, bitchez. You can check in and see what’s included in my collection so far on VIDA here.

Now, quick! Buy all my thingsies and make me jealous (and rich so I can buy them myself)!

Mother’s Day is fast approaching, which means you’re now scrambling to figure out a gift to give to your mom or the mother of your children. Much like you or your father, she doesn’t really want a neck tie. What she really wants  is art. Glorious, wonderful art. Or art on awesome shit, courtesy of yours truly. Need some ideas? Ask, and ye shall receive.

On FineArtAmerica.com, Pixels.com, Redbubble.com, and CafePress.com, you can find most of my art available on a boat load of swag – not that you need a boat load. You don’t even have a boat. Or maybe you do, in which case, can I go on a boat ride? Here’s a small sampling:

Mother's Day gifts 12
Mother's Day gifts 11
Mother's Day gifts 10
Mother's Day gifts 7
Mother's Day gifts 6
Mother's Day gifts 5
Mother's Day gifts 4
Mother's Day gifts 3
Mother's Day gifts 2
Mother's Day gifts 1
Mother's Day gifts 13
Mother's Day gifts 14
Mother's Day gifts 15
Mother's Day gifts 16
Mother's Day gifts 17
Mother's Day gifts 18

Is original art more her thing? Well I just so happen to, you know, make art. I also just so happen to, on occasion, sell art. You can purchase said original art through my website. And if you purchase from my store between now and May 3rd, you can get 10% off your order! Just use coupon code ILOVEMOM when you check out. Here are a few paintings to choose from:

buddha

Abandon corrected_high res
Awakening 12" x 9" oil on canvas

????????????????????????????????????

And finally, give her a hug from me and tell her she’s kicking ass at this whole life-of-a-mom thing, ’cause that shit’s no joke, y’all.

T’is the gift giving season, and I have to honest that I’m somewhat enamored with my paintings on merchandise. I know, it’s vain. I don’t even care. Luckily, I don’t have enough money to fill my house with my own art-drenched pillows, tote bags, beach towels, shower curtains, phone cases, prints on wood, mugs, etc. But you do! Knowing that sometimes people have a hard time envisioning it, I’m going to make it easy on you. Here are several of my paint and sip studio’s paintings and personal paintings on throw pillows. The same paintings and others are available on a wide variety of merchandise. Click on the title below each picture to purchase and/or see other options (this will take you to Fine Art America. Below the image on a throw pillow, you’ll see other merchandise. If you click on my name, it’ll take you to all of my available merchandise and prints.):
