Lustrous and Dark – An Art Print Sale!
SURREAL ART PRINTS BY SHADOWARTFINDS
Magical May Art and Print Sale
I thought it was about time I had a sale to celebrate my new shop. I’ve been slowly moving away from Etsy in favor of a shop through Storenvy. Etsy has been great over the years, but my needs have changed. Here are a few things I love about Storenvy:
- I have a theme I edited to mimic the look of my website.
- There are no upfront fees. I only pay a small fee when something sells and my listings never expire.
- I can have ‘Coming Soon’ and ‘Pre-order’ items in my shop.
Ultimately, I wanted a shop that cost me less money and less time. I’m more focused on selling art offline than online, but for those that can’t buy from me direct my shop is the next best thing. For the entire month of May everything is 20% off when you use the code MagicalMay at checkout.
Did you miss out on my Kickstarter? My first sketchbook is bring printed now. You can pre-order a book in my shop!
Didn’t have a chance to buy my art at JordanCon this year? I have a section just for Art Show prints!
Next week, prints of Renascentia will be available to order!

Fantasy Art Prints from Amanda Makepeace
One of the drawbacks to creating digital paintings is the idea that these are massed produced artworks, or not true art at all. I’m not going to argue what is and what is not art. I’d rather create something and share it with people who appreciate art in all its forms. However, the idea that digital paintings are something massed produced and easily created is nonsense. I spend hours working on sketches, thinking about colors, and eventually painting. So inevitably, I’ve been working on some big changes to how I market and sell my art. The answer for me Limited Edition prints.
limited edition
noun
: a special book, picture, medal, etc., for which only a small number of copies are produced and sold
The prints you’ll find in my new shop are all limited edition prints and they are larger than the standard prints I sold in my Etsy shop. Editions sizes will vary. As an example, I’m selling both prints of Forest Guardian and Spirit Guardian (the enhanced version). However, there will only be fifteen prints made of Spirit Guardian, whereas Forest Guardian will have thirty.
There’s also been an upgrade in the paper. I decided to go with Somerset Velvet, 100% cotton rag and acid free. It’s a common choice for fine art prints. Prints are long-lasting, rich in detail and color and all signed and numbered. Essentially you are buying a collectible piece of art; hence, the price increase. Prices for my prints will range anywhere from $25.00 to $60.00. I’ve already sold 1 of the 15 Spirit Guardian prints. Be sure to follow my Facebook page for announcements on new prints to the shop.

Will I be selling any traditional artworks?
Yes. I do plan to eventually sell original drawings and the occasional watercolor or oil painting. I’ll also be selling one-of-a-kind canvas prints for my digital paintings. When I say one-of-a-kind, I mean a one off canvas print–the only one in existence.
Will I still offer open edition prints?
Possibly. I may still sell these, but only at conventions or other events. If I do, they will be smaller in size and printed on standard matte or lustre paper. If you want something more original, a work of art, hold out for the limited edition.
