I’m getting ready to send five of these heart inchies off tomorrow for a swap. I showed one of them in an earlier entry before I glitzed them up. They look pretty cool in the bright sunlight we’re having today. I have to say, as much as I like inch-sized art to look at, it’s trickier to do than I anticipated. And as you can see, these are not that complicated. I’m looking more forward to what I can do with the photos and video I took of them than I did to the actual handmaking process. I have to get past this. Nobody wants to buy digital art. They just want to steal it. (Postscript: After I posted this I thought I was being a bit harsh with the line about stealing. Nope. Probably while I was writing it somebody lifted something from here and made a MySpace background from it, with no credit, no link back even.)

Hi Gretchen!
I loved your inchies before you added the glitter, but now they are absolutely gorgeous. I hope you get more buyers than pirates!
Hugs, Julie

I am with you on the stealing issue, I have it happen too, and it’s really wrong. Arhg!
Love these tiny works, it amazes me that anyone can work that small and have the art still shine!
