DECEMBER PAINTING OF THE MONTH TITLE: Firebird DATE: 2011 MEDIUM: Watercolor on Paper SIZE: 4″x6″
The Firebird Festival is happening again in Phoenixville Pennsylvania this weekend and I will once again be on hand to provide you with photos postcards and paintings of the bird.
The Festival will be happening this year on Saturday December 10th. The Art Bazaar will be open from 4:00 pm until 11:00. The bird will be burned at 8:00. Be sure to come out and check things out. There will be music, food, performances, arts and crafts and of course the lighting of a giant wooden bird. It is a great festival and a terrific way to spend a cold December night.
Blueberry Arts will be there with its usual fare of photographic Prints, original artwork including comics and paintings, postcards and original books made by yours truly.
Today is CYBER MONDAY, the online equivalent of black Friday. So of course we here at Blueberry Arts are having a sale too. For this year we are going to offer two coupon codes for our shop. The first code is a mystery discount. Who knows what it could be. And the kicker, there is only one coupon available. Once it is used the code will no longer work. The other is a free shipping code for the shop. Will you get the super secret discount? Also be sure to check back throughout the day since random items will go on sale, and then go back to normal in an hour or two. Be sure to remember, these sales and discounts are only good for today, so don’t miss out! Continue reading
Today is BLACK FRIDAY, the day after thanksgiving and the day that the holiday shopping season officially begins. That goes the same for here at Blueberry Arts too. For this years holiday sale, we are going to do things a bit different. The new shop now accepts coupon codes, so in this post I am going to offer a coupon for 20% off your total order in the shop. To make things nice, the sale will last until December 19th. This date also marks the last day to place an order for any in stock merchandise and actually receive it by Christmas (December 25th). Be sure to have a Happy Holiday and a Merry Christmas! Continue reading
November has been here for eleven days now, and every November is now Movember. This is my second year supporting this charity to help raise awareness for men’s health and prostate cancer. I do my part every year by growing my mustache and using my art to raise money and awareness. Now, I am getting this off the ground a little late this year. Those that know me, know that I now have a little daughter now home from the hospital. That kinda sucked my attention away from the business of Movember.
How can I help Blueberry Arts support Movember?
I hope you will show your support. Thank you.
Now, I’m on the hunt for trusty and fearless pioneers to join me by signing up for my team. Together we can change the face of men’s health.
To join my Movember team go to https://www.movember.com/us/register/details/team_id/225896.
Did you know that 1 in 6 American men will be diagnosed with prostate cancer this year?
As more people become Citizens of Movember, more lives will be impacted. You can grow a moustache as a Mo Bro, or join as a Mo Sista to show your support and help recruit other Mo growers to the team.
Once registered, Movember will send you all the information you need to start raising awareness and funds for men’s health as part of my Movember team.
If you’d like to find out more about the programs funded by Movember, please visit http://us.movember.com/about.
Please join me at https://www.movember.com/us/register/details/team_id/225896.

On OH-NO Comics Monday i made a blog post revealing reasons why there have been no recent comic updates. (I did it all in pirate speak for ITLAPD) One of those reasons was that modern computing no longer supports my version of Adobe Creative Suite. I of course discovered this AFTER I upgraded my operating system to Lion (Mac OS X 10.7). Lion is a 64 bit system and, well Adobe CS1 is only 32 bit. SO, I went online and downloaded a free trial of CS5.5 and happily used it for longer than the trial was supposed to last for. Then I had to reboot and my trial was over. Now I am stuck. The only way my comic gets online is with Photoshop and the only way I can make my books is with InDesign. Both are part of CS5.5.
So about the title to this news post. If I sell 100 books, I should be able to afford a student version of Adobe CS5.5 Design Premium and get back to making comics again (yay) and if I sell more than that, perhaps the Adobe Master Collection. The minimum I would have to sell would be 75 to get design standard.
Please help me make more comics. If you already own my books you can help spread the word AND/or buy something else in the shop, every penny counts. My shop can be found HERE (http://blueberryarts.com/shop/).
To buy ARTIST EDITIONS ($20) of my books go HERE: (http://blueberryarts.com/shop/books/). Artist Editions are signed and drawn in. I have a limited number of these, so only order from my shop if you are getting the artist edition.
To buy the REGULAR BOOKS ($12) shipped directly from the printer go HERE: (http://www.lulu.com/spotlight/blueberryarts)
Now here is a little secret about these books. If all goes to plan, these books will be discontinued sometime in 2012 making them collectors items never to be sold or printed by Blueberry Arts ever again. Plus if you bought one of the regular books from Lulu and want it signed, just find me at a convention or art fair and i will gladly sign it for you.
Thanks for your help folks, tell everyone you know!
P.S.: Here is a link for donations if you choose to go that route.
