Love “Red.” Giclée is an interesting choice - why did you choose giclée?  FYI your title links are broken in your RSS feed.

hmm, I’ll look into the rss feed and see what is going on.  Thanks for the heads up!

I love Giclée because my print shop can print to the edge, it’s waterproof, it last for 150+ years and it looks just beautiful.

I love the wicked print. My sis and I have a running joke about the wizard of OZ, for a while I had a bumper sticker that said “Things haven’t been the same since that house fell on my sister.” You would be amazed at how many people don’t get the reference.

I just happened upon you on Drawn! and I’m glad I did.  I look forward to following your work.  As for something witty and or funny… Didja hear about the missing cross dresser?  They put his/her picture on a carton of half and half!  *this is where you laugh*

I love the Wicked art. Beautiful colours but its her expression and those subtle textures that make this a winner.

The Red Hood is awsome. These geometric shapes make it cool and mysterious.
I like the idea that Red Hood is not a helpless victim. I had tried something similar with a snapshot of my Second Life Avatar(see link)
That Red Hood Print would fit perfectly in my living room:)

Love the Red Hood.  Put me in mind of a piece Molly Bang did on the same subject

So glad I found you on draw and that you have opened Etsy shop....I can feel a lot of presents coming on. Wicked is my favourite but Red is a close second.

Red Hood is totally awesome.

Hai Scott. I dont like to talk about myself, because I’m kind of perfect. But hey, that’s just ME. Also my grandma told ME so when she called ME the other day, again.. But then she started talking about you, that you’re maaaaybe more perfect then ME (pha!) and she wanted an illustration. So since she’s way too busy I have to get her a ‘nice red hood (the illustration!)’ or ‘that wicked thang’ otherwise she scraps ME of her most-perfect-people list. Tsss.. Got no choise here so here’s MY entrance: ‘a friendly and/or witty comment’.

Wow! Fantastic artwork - I love the color, drawing style and especially the contrast between the background and the character - very nice work. Good luck on the Etsy store and thank you for sharing your stuff!

Since I’m from The Netherlands I suppose I’m not allowed to enter...But I like what I’ve seen so far that I’m giving it a shot! P.S. I like your about picture...I’ll shave my head if I win (and send pics to prove it!).

red hood is amazing, is like a powerpuff girl in a bad way, trastornated, and the eyes are so powerful.

amazing!

#17. Posted by on June 10, 2009

I never win anything, so I just bookmarked your page so I could buy something. No I am not being pessimistic, just realistic in my case. I love your Wicked stuff, actually I like all of your stuff and cannot wait to add a piece to my home office!  Best Wishes and Lots of Luck to You and Your Business!

My husband’s cousin decided to claim back a painting her ex-boyfriend (Who used to live there before us) left behind - while we were abroad getting married, and the red hood would look simply perfect in that now lonely and empty space
