Quizzie reborn!

Candace Bell — Mon, 15 Feb 2010 01:30:46 +0000

Hello everyone, been some time since I did an update, I have been very busy making new clothing items on Second Life (see blog here) But I have been recently inspired but an old critter I made up years ago called the Quizzie. Perhaps some of you remember? Back in the day when eBay was a more lucrative source of selling original artwork! I’ve had my quizzie also refereed to as ugly bunnies lol. I name em Quizzies for being quizzical, they came from an idea I had for a story I had started writing. You can read a bit on Elfwood in my old “Tribes of Arcadia”

This is one of my original Quizzie paintings, acrylic on canvas pad.

And here is the new one! Prints are available for anyone interested in it This is an 8x 10 digital painting.

Gypsy WIP

Candace Bell — Thu, 08 Oct 2009 18:08:47 +0000

New Gypsy Vanner painting is coming along well I’m pleased with it so far! This painting is an actual full sized 9×12 inches. I love all my equines! I feel like they are all somewhere in mind all lined up in individual stables in my fantasy land, hehe. Its nearing completion, just need to finish up the boarder and do last minute touch ups!

New painting Wip – Electric eraser?

Candace Bell — Wed, 07 Oct 2009 14:36:18 +0000

Hello everyone! The artwork wont stop! it just keeps on coming! Gotta rebuild that portfolio with recent stuff and need new awesome art to bring to ConnectiCon next year! Anyway, have a work in progress (wip) of my next piece, I kind of felt like doing another equine. When I have enough I’ll make a calendar of them! This one is a tribute to the Gypsy Vanner, I LOVE those horses, id argue probably the most beautiful breed, and I wish I owned one!

Hes all tied up in ribbons! im excited to get started on this painting, so far as you can see I have just done the line work.

Here is something weird! a sort of artists relic of the past I suppose. I didn’t even know these existed! An electric eraser! My friend Avery brought it over for me. It has a chord you plug in, and a button on the side of the actual part you hold, and it spins the eraser around. Apparently they load with a very long pencil thin eraser and you just pull it down more as its used, and ti claps around it like a drill does to a bit lolI guess this is a tool architects would use to erase the pencil from their line work, which makes sense on the scale they work! still it seems like a silly invention to me, but its cool and I like it!
