The magi align the very fabric of reality into a pattern that suits the Elven kind. Their beautiful queen must sit at her throne and view the powerful colorful spectacle as a matter of protocol. The ageless monarch has seen the annual event hundreds of times so she is quite blase' about the whole affair. To keep from getting bored, she makes sure to have a fine book on hand of her favorite tales of adventure, one of the only luxuries she can afford now that she has so many responsibilities.

I hope you like this one. I sure do. I will make more and post as soon as I can. Much distraction at home. Must blaze a path to keep this project going! ;) Hope to see you back then...

This one will be listed tonight on a 5 day listing (click here to see it after 7 tonight)

The beautiful Queen of the Mermaids coils comfortably in her coral bed kingdom. She sits with a regal grace as she meets the viewer's gaze. Light flickers down on the warm waters of her aquamarine realm.

This is the last of the mermaid series. Definitely NOT the last mermaid ACEO I will be doing; not even in the short term. I will be doing more mermaids and soon. I will simply be exploring other subjects from now on as well.

Things on the homefront are really full of upheaval, stress, and uncertainty. That was the major reason I haven't posted in a while.

I am in real need of funds so I will be listing them with a buy it now feature for a while. Click here if you are interested.

The stag strides confidently through a fragrant and verdant field. The mermaid fairy rides him carrying very fine things in the small chests on either side of her.

I didn't post yesterday because there was a storm here in Los Angeles. It knocked out about half my block from the grid. Power finally came back on early this morning and I finished them up and posted as soon as I could. I hope you like them.

Will be on ebay this evening. Click Here to see it tonight.

Not even the mermaid fairies can fly through the water with the grace, maneuverability, and swiftness of the penguin. That's why they domesticated them and enjoy great adventures over the vast distances of their migratory routes.

Both # 19 and this one, #20, are listed on ebay. Buy Original Art On Ebay

This lovely mermaid has a gift with birds; they naturally trust her. Even though they have never met, the white breasted kingfisher approaches and perches on her hand without the slightest trepidation.

Will be available on ebay tonight. Click here to watch or bid (other works available now)

Once revered as gods in their realm, this mermaid and her jaguar protector now stand guard at the portal to the last remnant of this once mighty civilization. The mermaid has adopted the Day of the Dead aspect to honor those long lost; noble princes that sacrificed the greatest warriors of their enemies to her; their shrunken skulls now a decorative warning.

Will be available on ebay later tonight. Please click here to watch and/or bid.

The tiger had not eaten for a week when he caught the scent of carp. When he followed it to the riverbed, he was enchanted by the lyrical homage to Mt Fuji, that a beautiful Geisha mermaid was playing. He rested there with her and found a new and very special friend, instead of a meal.

Happily, all of those listed have thus far sold. The last three are still available. This one is currently listed on ebay. (click here)

A mermaid of a royal bloodline. Her butterfly fish advisers whispering liquid wisdom and mischief into her ears, as she surveys her coral reef domain. This one is more ornate than the others.

I will not impose any limits re: subject matter, except maybe porn. For the time being, I will definitely be doing a series of mermaids. I will list the "ACEO = number" in the title regardless. Knowing me, drawing mermaids, although they are a lot of fun and inspiring, will get too dull if that's all I do. I will include more subjects inspired by fantasy, wildlife, and art. I think that I will be making lots and lots of mermaids first though.

Site Launch And What Is An ACEO?

Saturday evening November 14, 2009. I started this project just yesterday, and decided to make a blog for it. All of my works will be for sale via auction on ebay (click here to view the current availabilities).

So what is an ACEO anyway? The acronym stands for Art Cards, Editions, and Originals. They are miniature artworks about the size of playing cards. They are currently all the rage on ebay, etsy, and other places original artworks are offered for sale online.

My goal is to make at least one new ACEO every single day for as long as I can. I hope you follow my progress enjoy my artworks.
