And The Winner Is...

swirlyarts!

And since Blogger is a strange, strange beast that doesn't let me email you in any shape or form, I'll let you contact me at eggmanstudios@hotmail.com with your print choice and mailing addy so I can send out your new print! Yay and congrats!


In case any of you guys decide to hold your own giveaway drawing, I used this site to get a random number. Pretty cool. I need to do this more often...

I really enjoyed reading everyone's favorite lesser-popular animals. Glad to hear that so many of you like snails and/or slugs. Me too. :) And Karlyn, you cracked me up with your Jaguar Shark comment. Sometimes, I really wish there were Crayon Ponyfishes and Fluorescent Snapper in the sea. Ah well.

I've also just listed some new wee circus painted brooches in the shop.

They're small and super sweet and look so nice when pinned to a jacket (tested and approved *cough*). There's currently only 3 left though 2 now left, so do hurry if you see one you like (the one pictured above is on its way to a lovely dear in France--though I do wish it were me going instead!).My current sketchbook is nearly full and I'm *dying* to start on a new one. I usually get so excited to start a new book by this point that I just abandon the old one and start in a fresh sketchbook. But I will be good and finish this one--every last page. Yes. I will.

Here's a quickie spread I did in it from last month when we had our last snowfall.

And I'll leave you now with a sleepy-eyed kitty that's warming up a spot for me in bed. :)


Happy trails, loves.

PS: Oh, I nearly forgot to tell you all! I'm going to a Death Cab concert this Friday night! It's the opening gig for their Spring/Summer tour, at a small venue in Bremerton WA, was sold out in the presale, and is only 40 mins. from my house. Yes, I'm paying out the nose to go, but I'm beyond excited--and even more pumped that I get to go with my wonderful friend, Rachel. *Happy dance*!

those brooches are so sweet!! (secretly I'm cursing my perpetually empty piggybank... lol)

I love your sketchbook--it looks like its full of all kinds of wonderful treasures and ideas! I really admire artists who keep such compilations of their thoughts; I can never seem to keep up for very long. hehe!

hope you're having a lovely day!

ohh so jealous about Death Cab...Have a great time!

Art Kitten said...

I love your sketchbook too! And your new brooches are awesome as well.

Rachel said...

hehe... now I feel bad for Karlyn, cause I really know nothing about the band. I had to look them up... BUT - they look/sound really cool, so... :D

Thanks for the compliments, guys!

Death Cab is my absolute, hands-down, favorite band. I'm dying to hear their new album! And, Ben Gibbard is originally from Bremerton? How did I not know this before? That would explain why they're doing the Bremerton gig. Small world. :)

Karlyn said...

You didn't know that? He went to my high school. I think it's a toss up between Death Cab and Postal Service for me.

I had no clue (for shame, I know). I knew that Chris DJed for "The Burg" at CWU (...which is *hilarious*, by the way), and that Ben and Nick were WWU pals, but I honestly had no idea that Ben was born/raised in Bremerton. Too funny.

Don't you love when the beds all toasty warm for you when you get there :) Congrats to the winner! I want that fossil!!

Eggman Studios said...

Oh, I know! Kitties are the best. :)

a almost full sketchbook-yum!
I love all the little tents you do. Also, your kitty is so sweet. Is he/she a persian? We had a doll-faced persian that passed away 2 years ago and I am finally ready to get another:) I love those cats so much!
