Listening For The Boss

2012-01-29T15:28:00.000-05:00

I call this painting Listening for the boss. I know it is a little late for holiday paintings but i just haven't felt like taking the picture.

I painted this with craft arcylics. I didn't really want the blue in the snow but dripped some in there by accident, but as Bob Ross says there are no accidents.;-)

Art With Words - The Fool, The Whore, The Bride

2012-01-11T17:28:00.000-05:00

She hangs from her own troubles knotted in a rope around her ankle.
Flashes her gold baubles and body like The Whore she is she.
But she is also The Fool destined to fool herself into thinking she will be The Bride.
So she hangs over her one stop drop into the abyss of fiery lava.
She dancing caring oh so much but can not stop destiny for only a fool believes they can

Sunday Sushi - Dragon Wonderland

2011-12-04T18:53:00.002-05:00

This one the first drawing I did on the computer years ago. This is Poinsettia and Mistletoe. They were part of my Dragonz and Dollz site. If you don’t know what Dollz are you can Google them and you will probably see a few still but I don’t think they are as popular to do any more. They are little cartoon pixel images usually of people but I did people and dragons. I wanted to be different.

Sugar Skull Box and Padre Pio Box

2011-11-21T21:58:00.000-05:00

I did these both the beginning of this month. One for Day of the Dead and the other for All Saints Day.

I also attended my first craft fair only sold one box but it was slow traffic.

New Confuzzled Faes!

2011-10-31T09:19:00.000-04:00

For Halloween I came up with a little Confuzzled Mischief Fae and used it on Confuzzled Books for a post.

I am thinking of making a Confuzzled Fae Calendar on Zazzle

Then I also drew this Snow Fae a while back but never got to finish it until today. It's a little different.

Peacocks!!

2011-10-21T09:34:00.000-04:00

I painted two ATC (Artist Trading Cards) both are peacocks from a children's story I wrote and hope to one day get published.

Here is Juniper

And Here is Virginia

The Original can be bought at the Confuzzled Design Etsy store

And some card of the art can be bought at the Zazzle store flash panel and link below

Holiday Boxes and A Breast Cancer Survivor Frame

2011-10-14T14:58:00.000-04:00

So I have 2 new picture boxes and a breast cancer survivor frame up at the Etsy Store.

I am not so sure about the frame. I painted thinking that the angel wing represent guardian angel like the pin on it but I think it could be taken wrong. I have up any way I really didn't mean it in bad taste.

Here I have the Pilgrim / Turkey Picture box. I painted his one arm kinda funky it just came out that way but kinda looks like he has it on his hip.

This one is my favorite Jack Frost / Yeti Picture Box.

At first I was going to paint a Snowman but then Jack Frost came to mind and then the Yeti decided to visit.

Ronald Reagan Caricature

2011-10-10T09:50:00.001-04:00

Sunday Sushi - Preparing for the Holidays

2011-10-09T22:54:00.000-04:00

Zombie Fae by (me) Shannon McGee

Halloween is coming which is the start of the holidays to me. So I have been preparing the Etsy store with holiday items. Only thing is I haven't sold anything on Etsy yet. I am hopeful because I like my stuff so usually if you like your items that means someone might right? I have some people who have favorited a couple though so that is promising.

I have sold in the Zazzle store only a few things but the items I sell at the Etsy store I have only sold at flea markets. I am bad at marketing I really try but I know it something you have to keep at and that is my downfall.

I have a few things I am painting more for the Etsy store and couple ideas for Zazzle Art. I have a Thanksgiving box, a Breast Cancer Frame and Medusa Mask. The hardest will be the mask I have to work on how I am doing the snakes. :-/

For the Zazzle store I don't really have any holiday ideas well one but I don't know if I can do it right. The ideas I have are of caricatures of Reagan and Obama... I did a study of Reagan already but Obama is still an idea.

Halloween Boxes

2011-10-07T14:03:00.001-04:00

Dreamcatcher w/ Love Birds

2011-09-30T19:11:00.000-04:00

I know it's a little light and hard to see sometimes but if you get the right light I think it looks great.

I got the idea from a wedding topper I made for my mother-in-law's wedding. I thought it would look good as a invitation. You can get the design at Zazzle on a few items. Link Below.

WIP - Just Fooling..

2011-08-12T13:43:00.000-04:00

I am working on this painting at the moment. It has references to Tarot, and Bible. It needs a lot of work yet. Lately I haven't felt the need to work on it but yet I have it staring in front of me everyday. Part of me wants to work on it to fix the errors like the arm and more since it is right in front of me. The other part doesn't feel like bringing out the paints.

Clown Entrance

2011-08-09T10:20:00.000-04:00

The more I look at this one and think why didn't I paint in oil or acrylics. I entered this into a exhibit too at Ebsqart.com. It just did not come out as I had hope after I added the blue. I don't work with pencils or colored pencils that often so I need work with them. Plus these were watercolor pencils so I used water on it to mask the lines but that didn't work either. Now I think I am going to delete it from Ebsq and do it again.

Old Painting - Native American Woman in Blanket - 2007

2011-08-03T06:23:00.000-04:00

Old Paintining - Nala Sitting - 2007

2011-08-02T09:17:00.000-04:00

Old Painting - Lazy River - 2007

2011-08-01T13:04:00.000-04:00

I am not sure if I studied a picture with this one or not. I know the title came from the lazy river in Disney World at one of the water parks. That park was so nice a relaxing.

Old Painting - Kitten On Couch - 2007

2011-07-29T08:07:00.000-04:00

You can't tell but I actually studied a picture for this painting. Always been bad at perpective. lol Working on it.

Back

The dragon on the back did not come out as I would have liked but nothing is perfect right?

Old Painting - Grandmom Kilpatrick and Dad - 2007

2011-07-26T07:11:00.000-04:00

Princess Series : Rapunzel Box

Old Painting - Graceful Ceiling - 2007

2011-07-21T07:15:00.000-04:00

Have you ever look at clouds or a ceiling and seen images in it. Well this what I use to see when I took baths at my parents house. An image of a baby in a bathtub surrounded by skeleton, clown and dragon. I didn't show this one off so well. I don't know why I picked brown as a background. Looks much better in drawing then painting.

Nala and Smokey Story Board 1

2011-07-20T04:28:00.000-04:00

These are the first three panels to a illustration to a children's book. Not the final but a start.

Old Painting - Excess IV - 2007

2011-07-19T16:10:00.000-04:00

Just another Abstract ...

Old Painting - Excess III - 2007

2011-07-18T09:32:00.000-04:00

This one too me looks stonehenge/ sci-fictionish.

Old Painting - Excess II - 2007

2011-07-16T08:48:00.000-04:00

Another Abstract. Some people don't consider this as abstract because I was really set on a meaning. I think the meaning of art can come after. Like I see this as very Georgia O'Keefe like but maybe that is just me.

Old Painting - Excess I - 2007

2011-07-15T08:30:00.000-04:00

Ignore the date stamp. I trying to figure out how the camera worked then I think... I call this Excess I . I felt bad about having all this excess oil paint after done a painting so I tried abstract. This is what I got. No real meaning just excess. lol

Old Painting - Duck - 2007

2011-07-14T15:15:00.000-04:00

This is done in acrylics and on paper. I drew the duck first looking at a picture. Again not my best but pretty good I think.

Old Painting - Dragon and Fairy - 2007

2011-07-13T10:06:00.000-04:00

I did this painting once before and thought it was horrible and threw it out but I realize now that that first one was much better then this. So to say the least I am not happy with this one. Oh can you tell what is missing in this picture. lol

Dragon is missing arms.

Old Potrait - Digital Potrait 2007

2011-07-12T14:56:00.000-04:00

I am not going really explain this one.

Sunday Sushi - Reaching Out

2011-07-10T08:12:00.000-04:00

This week I attended group at a new community place for people recovering from illness call The Reach Out Foundation. Website here http://rofbucks.net/

The Group I attended was called Creative People in Recovery and it meets on Saturdays.

I was very anxious the whole time and I don't know whether I am going back.

It is nice to be in a group with people who have similar interests but I was having a hard time enjoying myself.

Anyway for the week ahead I will probably show more of my old paintings. I do have some things that are WIP like a snow white box and more Confuzzled Fae in Clay but I really having been doing much painting or crafting mostly writing. I have ideas for caricatures of Reagan and Obama in mind but have not buckled down to do them. I have a schedule but I haven't really been following it so maybe I need to change it. I don't know.

Have a Great Week

Old Painting - Boy in Goggles - 2007

2011-07-08T10:11:00.000-04:00

Just in time for summer. I could really use to go swimming now.

Yes I know his arms and hand are kinda off. It's not perfect but I tried and if I tried for perfect I would never call it done but done it is.

This was done in Oils on Canvas

Old Painting - Balancing Act 2007

2011-07-07T13:48:00.000-04:00

I haven't been doing much crafting or painting. Except in my head. I have ideas but just haven't formed them on paper or in paint. So I thought I would show some of my old paintings. This was for a contest that I think the theme was circus. From just doing it from my head I think it came out pretty good. I still consider myself a amateur when it comes to painting.

Paul Revere Caricature

2011-06-16T12:22:00.000-04:00

2011-06-01T06:47:00.000-04:00

Sunday Sushi #3 - Selling of the Art & Crafts

2011-05-22T07:39:00.000-04:00

This weekend I took my Arts & Craft to a local Yard Sale to see how we would do.

We made our money back but for how much we spent on food because we didn't pack anything was quite a bit...something to think about next time.

I counted the small boxes and I have over 45 of them at the start of the day. Yes there are actually 45 + boxes on that table. I sold 7 boxes and three books which we had at the sides of the table.

The Cheshire Cat Box is gone, along with Sailboat, Phillies, Halloween and two other boxes I can't remember.

I was actually asked if I had anything with Snow White and I am going to paint and idea I have of one up...hopefully.

This past week I showed you :

Cheshire Cat Box

A Painting called Lamb's Lullaby

A Frame with Friends & Shopping Theme

A Cross Blessing America

And some of the boxes I was to sell at the yard sale.

Week Ahead

What I hope to be working on:

Birthday Invite

Heart Box

Writing Confuzzled Stories and Query Letters for series I wrote to publishers.

A Painting

Frame with Baby Dragon

Confuzzled Clay Sculptures (still working on)

Book Illustrator Interview or Spotlight.

American Cross

Friends & Shopping Frame

2011-05-18T07:00:00.011-04:00

This Frame's design came from the shoe decal that is actually for fabric.

WWII Memorial To Grandpop

2011-05-10T15:47:00.000-04:00

Memorial Day is coming up so I thought I would hang something special on my door related to my family.

My Grandfather Flannery was in WWII in Italy as radio controller. On this Clip Board you will see a picture of him in uniform, a clip art I found, and map of WII Italy marked where troops were stationed.

Hanging from the Clip Board is a sculpy dog tag with V. Flannery 1916 - 1978

I never got to know my grandfather. He died not in the war but after. I was almost 1 year when he did die. Pictures are all I have.

Candy's Corner

Sunday Sushi #2- Art is Art is Art is Art

2011-05-01T16:58:00.001-04:00

Sunday Sushi - Art is Art is Art is Art

In the month of April:

The month of April I haven’t focused on art as much as I like to but I think I did a fair amount some I haven’t even shown here. This April I shared my love of book cover art . I shared my Easter decor and some Fab eggs.

My creative whims sometimes wander on certain thing and when I get an idea I gotta start I may not finish till later. Some of the whims came in a Spring box, Yin Yang box, and Fox Mask.

Sometimes my art is in writing whether it is on Confuzzled Books or a children’s story I am writing. I have a couples images I haven’t shared ...they are just sketches really for a children’s book about our pups

These are a rough sketch and me practicing for a story I wrote on Nala and Smokey(r.i.p).

I have other drawing and sketches I am working on but this is all I am going to show for now..;-)

Jumping ahead in May:

I hope to do more in this blog and connect to the other blog...
As for now what is ahead for Confuzzled Designs....little more art for stores like Zazzle and CafePress
More Painting on Canvas,
More writing,
Return of the Etsy store!

I have so much more planned for this blog, this creation, in my head. I just have to move forward.

Red Fox Mask

2011-04-28T23:46:00.000-04:00

Here's a mask that I decorated with gems stone, paint and boa.

More Fab Eggs in Magnet Form!!

2011-04-23T14:28:00.000-04:00

Hubby and I painted some more wooden form (balloon) from our local craft store and created our own Faberge Eggs.

Here's Thorin's

Here are mine:

Here they are hanging on the frig:

Spring Love!

2011-04-16T00:21:00.000-04:00

Here is a little something I saw set up at my local craft store I decided to give it a shot. All it took was :

square glass container

glass beads to fill inside container

small pack of white lights

decor bird and nest

some scrapbook paper

decorative fabric jewels

and a hot glue gun

And LIT UP!!!

Had to lay it down to take a picture lit up. Silly lights keep going out when standing up. Always check your lights. :-)

Easter Door Decor!

2011-04-15T10:17:00.000-04:00

The back board I got as a wedding gift for placing picture. I think I always put them in wrong because the pictures never stayed. I like the design so I thought it would be a pretty back board for easter eggs and springy things.

Picture didn't come out that great but here are the eggs close up. They are my take on Faberge Eggs made with wooden eggs from craft store, glued jewel, and acrylic paint.

My favorite this blue one is actually wooden balloon piece upside down.

Yin Yang box

2011-04-14T16:32:00.000-04:00

I made this with someone special in mind. Here's what I used:
1 Yin Yang iron on pattern (clearance at A.C. Moore)
1 hat box wooden
Acrylics paints uses:

Wicker white paint
Black wrought iron
Gunmetal metallic
Fuchisa metallic
Petal Pink metallic
Inca Gold metallic
Banana yellow

Here is the Top of box with Iron on glued to it:

Here is the angle of top and bottom( I know the lines are not perfect that is the point) :

Here is the inside a Lotus representing heart and compassion:

Calypso Lion

2011-03-15T14:18:00.000-04:00

The Calypso Lion is a little doodle I came up with in one of my old sketchbooks years ago. Looking through it I thought it would be cute on some kids items at Zazzle. I added the palm tree and sleepy parrot for fun.

Okay I kinda stole this from the people who do Sunday Salon for Book Blogs ( And if you haven’t checked out Confuzzled Books then head over)

So this is where I give a little update of what I have been doing Art wise (This means writing, painting, drawing, and crafting)

Last Week - Starting Sunday March 6th 2011

Sunday - I created a birthday card kinda in the honor of those who have there birthdays on March 6th ( I’ve known quite a few)I wanted to do the Pisces sign but ended up with the fishes and seaweed making a six. I called it Lucky 6.

Monday - I posted the card on Zazzle. And here it is …

I even made up the poem inside.

Tuesday - I wrote an update for here but did not post so I guess that doesn’t really count.

Wednesday - nothin’

Thursday - I wrote and posted a review of Fun Home: A Family Tragicomic by Alison Bechdel at Confuzzled Books.

Friday - I came up with 00Shamrock the Leprechaun. He’s a parody of James Bond with fairies and gold silhouetted.

Project: St. Patrick's Day Graphic
Title: Leprechaun 00Shamrock Silhouette
Time Spent: 2-3 hours
Technique: Photoshop 7.0

How I came up with the idea: Originally I thought of a Confuzzled Fae dressed as a Leprechaun with a shillelagh. Like James Bond with his gun... but the image I found of a gnome on a free clip art CD seemed to fit better after a few adjustments. I added the coin that he is flipping and the two sexy fairies for flavor.

The first one is Bill and Sookie from Dead Until Dark by Charlaine Harris. This one is up for auction at Ebay
