Pirate Ship Treasure Box
My last art show is over for the year and it was fun. I had a roomie in my booth, my friend Amelia and I shared a booth. That makes the day go by a lot more smooth and it's also more fun to have someone to laugh and gripe with. Sales were decent and I did more face painting which is such a kick. I even wore my own snowflake glitter tattoos. Fun :)
If you saw my last post, it was about a painting of a pirate ship I did. I put that painting on a box and many other illustrations with it. It was the very first piece to sell and here it is :)
I used prints of my original paintings and illustrations so I can recreate this box, although it wouldn't be identical which I don't want anyway.
I'm linking to Paint Party Friday =) Check out the talent!

You are a fabulous illustrator AND writer, Jaime...
ReplyDeletean Mom...and
DID YOU EVER THINK OF WRITING? ILLUSTRATING A CHILDREN'S BOOK????
Put that on your to-do list. My Dad always wished for me to do it, but it's not in my imagination...YOU can do it. ♥♥♥
Your painting of everything is so precise, I am absolutely in love with all of it. The ship is brilliant, the telescope, oh my, love the pirate and the map, oh my, just great. I can see why it sold right away. It appeals to our pirate mystery thoughts. Blessings, Janet PPF
