Rest in Peace




Our neighbor, Antonina, had a massive stroke last Thursday on the anniversary of her husband's death. She slipped away peacefully surrounded by family around 6:30 this evening. Rest in peace, Antonina. You will be sorely missed by everyone. :'(

Be A Super Kid!



Catherine and I created this piece after receiving multiple requests asking for something like this. We hope it pleases the parents who were looking for this!

This piece is focused on encouraging kids to strive to be the best they can be!

Pendants on Etsy!



Besides our usual bottlecap necklaces, we have also started to make these glass pendant necklaces. Here are two of the first ones. We'll be adding more to our etsy store throughout the next few weeks/months. Our necklace supply has a much larger variety than what is listed on our etsy store. (They are all on display at conventions though.) We're quite happy with the reaction to our variety of necklaces. Please contact us if you see a piece of our art that you would like to see on a necklace.

NWI Comic-Con


We had a great time at the NWI Comic-Con Sunday! 

It was our friend's, Celina Barajas, first time showing/selling her art at a convention, so she had a great time! Her artwork is behind us, the Hello Kitty mash-up drawings. 

What a fantastic turnout for the NWI Comic-Con's first year! It was great meeting everyone and we're looking forward to next year's convention!

Next convention on our list is C2E2 April 25-27th! :)

Art Thieves

Beware of online art thieves! We only sell our art online at Etsy and at Spreadshirt. (possibly society 6 eventually) If you see our artwork on any other site, it is not legit and the sellers are illegally profiting off our art. Please notify us and we will take immediate action against them. Most likely in these cases, they are stealing all or most of the artwork in their online shops. (Apparently Etsy has a huge problem with this. We recently stopped several sellers using our art on cell phone cases.) Please be aware when buying online that you're buying from the artist and not a thief! One way is to check to see if the style and quality of the drawings all match or is a hodgepodge of random images. They will even sometimes claim that all art is done by them, but it can be obvious they are lying. Catherine and I make our entire living off of being artists through freelancing and selling art on the side. It's disappointing every time we find someone stealing another artist's artwork.

Anyway, here's another mermaid piece. ;)

Flying Pig

  Here's a redo of one of my first digital art pieces I drew ages ago. A fresh take was way overdue! 🐷
