Zombie Monkey

I sold a second item, it was a custom item...Zombie Monkey.  I think I am going to have to do a lot more of the zombie animals, it was way too much fun.  Tonight I will work on a couple of new ones, it is blizzarding out there.  I mailed out the oh so cool first zombie monkey and I hope his new family loves him.  I am starting to get ready for my trip to the Caymen Islands.  Short blog, but yeah I am a boring person...so have a great night and stay warm.

My First Sale!

I have now officially sold an item on Etsy!  I sold one of my favorites, the big brown monkey with detachable banana.  I did take an order for a zombie monkey, so I may even have two sales by the end of the week.  So I am on my way now with my little online store.  This week at the Gallery will be a nice relaxed one, last week we had an opening with our love show.  Next week a new show will go up, so I am going to enjoy the quiet.  On the 21st Derek and I head off to the Caymans, never been anywhere warm like that before, should be great.  Well I think that is all for now, so have a great rest of your day!

My very first blog entry!

Hello, so my very first blog entry, not exactly sure what to say...so here goes.  I am now a wife, mother, artist, and gallery owner.  My girlfriend Becky and I opened an art gallery about 2 years ago.  We have now grown and moved to a beautiful new space and completely love it.  My daughter is almost 14 mos old.  Her name is Emma and she is more challenging and amazing than I ever though a child could be!  My husband, Derek, is a first year resident.  He is learning all the ins and outs of being a doctor, he is gone a lot because first years tend to get all the call nights!  So that brings me to my art.  I am an artist struggling to find time to create, but I have been making time lately which is very exciting.  So now I am listening to an old Cardigans album that is still one of my favorites and trying to think of something cool to say in my very first blog entry!  I also make little stuffed animals, they are all on the right side of my page.  I sell them on Etsy, an amazing place for artists to sell work.  So you can check out my stuff at www.amyjoshandmade.etsy.com.

Have a great day!!
