My friend Kathleen wrote a tweet about forgetting things and tying red string around her fingers, and it inspired this image. There are so many things you have to do to remain a lady, sometimes you can tie yourself up in remembering it all.

This piece is for sale, if you’re interested in buying it please contact me with your best offer. Highest bidder wins, and I will close bids by next Wednesday 2 December.

Details: Ink, coloured pencil and watercolour on Arches Aquarelle paper, 282mm x 354mm.

Once Upon launched last Thursday night, and by all reports it was a fantastic night in Sydney. I wish I had the cash for plane tickets down for the last week, because Happenstance were launching their second issue (which I’m in!) as well!

One of my pieces sold, but the other three are still for sale! They are all framed in gorgeous white ornate frames, I totally want to start using frames like this for my work. I love them!

If you’d like to buy some of my work (which is very affordable, go onnn) you can check out it and the work of the other participating Once Upon artists here!

I’ve just opened up a shop on ArtFire.com to sell my original art works. This is something I’ve been meaning to do for a long time, but I kept putting it off because I have assumed that no one will want to buy anything! I don’t want to believe that any longer! Prove me wrong and bolster my self esteem

I have listed eight pieces right now, but I have another three framed pieces to add as well as a bunch of drawings. All of these pieces are just taking up room in my office and I’d love to see them adopted by people who will hang them up and love them.

The other reason why I am motivated to sell my originals is because I want to start working in different media and experimenting with new things but I simply can’t afford it. If you adopt one of my drawings or paintings, you will be encouraging and prolonging my career as an artist and patronising me – in a good way, hahaha!

Go forth! Purchase some of my original art and fancy up your walls.

I always mean to draw something for Illustration Friday but I never get beyond sketching a few ideas! This week I checked the topic and it fits with something I drew just yesterday! Horah!

Natalie Tyler, or Natalie 1, urged me to submit something to the T-shirt Revolution “Inspired by Facial Hair” challenge so I whipped this up in a few hours. I used new paper too, a Canson illustration paper, which was very nice. I found that my copics did bleed a bit, which was disappointing, but my microns behaved beautifully on it.

When I put these paintings up at the cafe my friend works at a lot of people online were interested in them. Fortunately for you, they didn’t sell at the cafe (I suspect people didn’t know they were for sale because my artist’s cards were removed from beneath them) and I have picked them up, so they are available directly from me now.

I will gladly ship within Australia as well as overseas, but p&h will be extra and insurance is recommended. I accept PayPal, or Direct Deposit if you have an Australian bank account. All works feature painted sides, title of piece on rear, and are signed under “N.Baird”.

Check out the other three after the jump!
