Dog and Cat Greeting Cards (and cows, pigs, rabbits)

I'm very excited about the little "Shop My Greeting Card" widget at the top left of the page. It takes you to my Blessing Art animal card shop at Greeting Card Universe. This is a new company, or a new service of an existing Reminder Service Company, and artists can sell their card designs there as well as open a storefront. It's free, it's fun, and I hope you take a look!

For shoppers, it is 2.49 per card plus postage and you can cusomize your cards. At top are a few I added last night.

Adopt a Komondor, Adopt a Dachsund!

I have a couple of new Adopt a _____ designs: Komondor and Dachsund. The Komondor has a coat that is great fun to draw :) The design is available on t-shirts, tiles, and other apparel/gifts.
I've been meaning to do several of the dogs with corded coats (?) because they are so much fun for caricature, so I will have to pull out my pics and study!




To see what's new at Nearholy Studio, visit nearholy.com or Animal Gift Art and Tiles at ebay.
Thanks for looking!

Who doesn't love a Chihuahua?

I just finished a couple of new designs--I Love Chihuahuas and Adopt a Chihuahua (or two). Since we lost our Chow Chow last year, we are a dogless home, but the 5 cats and 2 cottontails we are rehabilitating have approved the Chihuahua as dogs go, since they are about the same size and the cats and rabbits could give one a run for their money :) Not that they would, of course.




I've also got a Beagle and Boston Terrier design somewhere on my computer that I haven't been able to track down, but as soon as I do, I will add them to the "Adopt a ___" series. Oh, and a Dachsund too.

And as always, these designs are available on my website: nearholy.com and ebay

I was very excited for a short time because I'd found a printer for 6x6 and 8x8 tiles, but unfortunately, I am not able to offer these again until I find another. The last of these bigger tiles went to Artiste, a gallery/shop in Houston, owned and run by the Proehls. (Very nice people, btw.)

There is a short series of dog, cat, ferret, and rabbit memorials that I did for United Priority Distributors, who sell urns, etc for people who've lost their animal companions. Beyond that, I've started a small collection of designs for my own shops and making them customizable to enable customers to have their pet's name included. See a couple of posts back for the new cat designs in this collection.

I have been doing much less actual painting for the last year and focusing more on design for t-shirts and tiles and such. As long as I'm creating something new, tho, I'm pretty happy! Starting to funnel my Blessing Art designs into Greeting Card Universe so all 400+ images from that animal series are available on paper and ecards.

that's it for today!
thanks for reading :)

New Dog Rescue Designs on T-shirts

Well, new stuff today to share: I've been adding T-shirts to my ebay store! Brand new are cocker spaniel rescue and adoption, irish setter adoption and rescue, westies and rescue/adoption, as well as one of my bestselling designs-3 Rescue puppies.

As always, new stuff first goes into my shop at Cafepress: Blessingart. Also, I have signed up with a greeting card universe so all of the Blessing Art designs are available as paper cards, individually and in sets.

And finally :) I have Plus Size t-shirts available! Now you can find SM-5X. Big sizes for big-hearted animal lovers. Check my shop Blessingart at Cafepress for the new sizes. Click on pics below if you want to browse the products. Happy Thursday! Sharon, Nearholy Studio
