Description In case you havent noticed, I like to draw fish. And to be honest, I think Ive gotten rather good at it. hands? not so much. bowls of fruit? hell no. But fish, yes.

Anydoodle.
My friend Christy gave me a bunch of her old jewelry to see what I could do with it. So I took this coral-y necklace and made some fishie friends for it. Drawn on shrinky dink paper, baked and sealed with resin. Secured with jump rings.

shranky daaaaaanks.

Auction? Yes. Unless, of course you want to buy it straight out. In which case it is $20 and 100% of the profit goes towards our adoption fund.

holla.

quidditchmom In reply to Sompy-Stuff [2009-03-04 18:20:44 +0000 UTC]

Thanks! I just use colored pencils and a micron pen. The paper works really well with colored pencils!

Thank you! You know, when my son was first born and I was soooooo bored at home, my MIL bought me a bunch of Shrinky Dink paper. I was like "umm......ok?"
Oh, little did I know....

lol thank you. Sometimes when Im drawing and its SHIT, I will just draw a fish to make myself feel better because I know its a sure thing, lol.
And if you are worried, I will probably make more of this type of stuff down the line.
