Years ago we jumped onto the world wide web with thegoldengallery.com. It was pretty much a portfolio site for our gallery. People in a hurry could briefly visit the brick and mortar gallery and then go to the website later if they liked what they saw.
Problem was, they couldn't buy directly from the site. This was pre-Paypal. Well, after years of laying dormant, we are going to re-launch the site, hopefully soon. It will feature my work, my mother's work, some of my grandmother's knitted scarves, my dad's audio CDs, and my son's and daughters' artwork. We will also have some of our long-time employee Melissa Manley's metalsmith work.
The re-launch may coincide with our 30th Anniversary celebration (more on that later) in November.
You can see the beginnings of the new homepage

I have long wanted to do something with monsters, and finally have started with the first in a series. "Monster Heartbreaks" uses some of my urban textrues with a simple illsutration style. I am still figuring out exactly what this series will be.
I mentioned cards early this year, and finally...they are becoming available in my Etsy Store.
Well... of course I do! Robots need love too!
One of my most frequent requests for my Fido Series is the Yorkshire Terrier. Finally done, and on Etsy. This was a good exercise, as long hair was not something I had done yet with the dog series, so some stylistic figuring out was required. This will make a Sheepdog and some other dogs lots easier to do.
This is by far the hardest breed I have done! It took several days to get the hair on the top of the heads right. But they are finally done and available on Etsy.
Last week, quietly and with no fanfare at all, I passed 1000 items sold in my Etsy store.
It's time for another BOGO sale. See details in my Etsy Shop description...
I have always loved soapbox derby cars and the roundness of the racecars of the 1930s. That's what inspired these 4 collages of some racers that I designed. These are new and really have a masculine bent to them.
