Mary's Art | Our Stock | Our Photography



Sorry to have been mostly absent from DA lately. Been sick as a dog for the last few weeks, first with a head and chest cold and then with a kidney infection, plus I have been working as many as 7-12 days straight without a day off for the last few months, so not a lot of time for the internet or for photoshop. As always, really wishing right now that there were more then 24 hours in a day so I could actually have time to do some of the things I enjoy and not just the things that work and real life require of me.

On a more positive note, a local alternative clothing store run by friends of mine is encouraging local artists of all varieties to place their work in the store, both as display pieces and as items for sale, giving us a chance to have our work seen in a way we might not otherwise be able to. I have gotten permission from a number of stock providers and models I love on DA to place a few pieces I have made using their stock at the store and actually sold my first piece just last week and have 3 more pieces that people have laid claim to for purchase as holiday gifts. So excited at the moment that things are starting to look up in that area. Also I was contacted a few weeks back about having some of my art featured in a goth/industrial e-zine's next issue. So in spite of being sick and working my tail off, there are some really positive things happening as well. Hoping this is a sign of how the next year will go.

I am hoping to get some new pieces done and added to the gallery in the next few weeks, so keep your fingers crossed that I will actually get enough free time to spend it playing in photo shop and not running errands, cleaning house or getting called in to work early lol.
