Melissa,
While I appreciate that you like my work, I do not sell any of my images. I make a living licensing my designs which are all copyrighted images. You can find images for sale on most vector sites that sell them but anything that is a design like mine usually is not for sale and is copyrighted work and I wouldn't use it without permission or it would be cause for legal action.
Good luck on your blog and search for an image!!
Thanks,
Ellen

It's a Three Ring Circus...
It's a three ring circus ... This is what's currently in my hoops. Whatcha' got going in yours? Post it to our flickr group.
I beg to differ though on that one Andy- I know first hand of one popular person a company took on just for that reason but guess what- the line isn't selling!! Like we couldn't see that coming either- if you have no range you cannot sell goods period.
I am hoping now companies will see this as not a plus!

Follow your dreams!
So are you "Following your dreams" ? What are you doing today that you have dreamt about? Or are you still waiting to do what you wanted to do? Ever since I was young I always knew I would be an artist but as I grew older I came to define what that really means and what type of artist...

Eiffel Tower, I love you
I know the Eiffel tower has been photographed a million times. All you have to do is sit across from it and have a picnic at sundown and you'll see constant flash bulbs going off, almost like the Paparzzi catching a celebrity in L.A.. I know it also might seem like a tourist trap. And in so...

Leslie we got hit too or rather I got hit bad for 2 yrs- so I now what you mean. Its not easy to see your savings and extras get taken away, infact it was a brutal year and still will be until Oct for me. I am just trying to look to the future instead of dwelling on how hard it is, just to keep me afloat!
thanks for all your wonderful comments everyone!

Okay folks here it is! I for the record want to say I love Paula Deen and her story is quite amazing, but when she signs her name to a product she needs or her people need to do their homework! Take this for example that came to my attention yesterday. The company Kaleen, who produces Paula De...
thanks Mary for your wonderful comment. Yes the rip-off from Kaleen was extremely disgusting and believe me they are in for it.. I would love to blog about some news I know about how Paula Deens people took care of it but can't yet!
I will always fight for what is right and never let those who try and benefit from others get away with it within reason! Since I would rather be a lover and not a fighter!

yes this sort of thing has got to stop! and Christine.. it happens allot I am afraid, but you have to be on top of it! Last year I found a product in Michaels stores that was the same one I did for Fred Meyer- I called them up and in this case they took care of it right away! Sometimes its the vendors overseas that sell these to stores not even thinking an artist owns the copyright to it!
