I have a lot to celebrate these days! I've been making some great changes!
First, I merged my blogs which was a big step and was a catalyst to help other important things move right along, as well.
I've updated my look and I'm really excited about that! It's been a long time coming.
I'm starting an email newsletter, something I've been wanting to do for a long time. I'll be sharing a mix of things with you in it -- my latest news, giveaways and other promotions, events, Etsy and pet portrait discounts, and links to things I think you might be interested in, including other artists who inspire me! The newsletter allows you to sign up for as LITTLE or as MUCH information as you like about my goings-on. Just click on the check marks you're interested in, and you will only get the info that you request.
To mark the big moment, I'm giving away a prize package!!
The package consists of everything you see in the photos of this post...

• a selection of 10 of my "Classic" Wellerwishes greeting cards. Several of the cards feature my Funny Bunnies™ characters, and eight of the cards are hand-painted. These are limited edition and out of print.
• 2 glossy ACEO prints (artist cards editions and originals). An ACEO is a baseball-card sized "trading card", but they are for art, not baseball. They are, basically, mini prints or originals, suitable for framing and signed/dated on the back. You can enjoy them several ways: in a keepsake book, in a frame, give as a token or gift to a friend. The ones in the giveaway prize pack are glossy quality archival prints of my "Adorable Pug" and "Greek Lemons" art (two of my personal favorites)!
