2nd Paint Party Friday!!!!!

Hi all you paintin' party animals!!!! I'm new to doing ACEO's and I am loving them!!! Since they are so small, I'm finding they are the perfect thing to paint on the weekend and then submit for PPF! So here's my 2nd ACEO ever! I painted him last Saturday. His name is Gandalf Gecko and he is getting ready to work his magic on you!!! The best part is, I sent him to a friend for a sneak preview and she wants to take him home so he is already spoken for ready to be shipped! Thank you my friend!!!! Don't worry the rest of you gecko lovers out there, I will be painting lots of little gecko aceo's to come in the future!!!!!

  13. Thanks for your comment on my blog. Yeah the butterfly is transformation and I am very into Native American totems. In fact I am a regular zoo all on my own!! I sign my art Blue Otter because Otter is my Talking Self totem!! Otters like to play and are all about woman medicine. Are you into totems too?
