Wrist- and Pocket-Watches for All

I've always flt that art doesn't only belong on walls, so I find it very satisfying to try out my artwork on the range of products that Zazzle offers.

Just recently I realized that Zazzle offered a wide range of watch styles, for men, women and children.  I had already added some of my artwork to wall clocks, so I was interested to try it out on the wrist watches too.

I'm including some of my designs here and in each case, the customer can select from approximately 40 different style of watch in addition to the ones I have shown.

The first one shown here was created  just last week, with my latest digital artwork, entitled "Dashing Through the Snow" on the women's wraparound gold watch.

Continuing with the equine art theme, this next one features my digital artwork "Grey Horse at the Stable Door" on the women's classic black leather strap watch.

I think this next one might appeal to men, and would be a nice gift option for husbands, dads etc.  It features a digital painting, based on a photograph that I took while in Yellowstone National Park. It shows a bison strolling past Old Faithful as it was getting ready to erupt.

The last of my watch designs that I am showing today features one of my fantasy artworks called "Vintage Fairy on a Swing".  I like the fact that, on this children's watch, the hands are labelled "hours" and "minutes".

So that's it for my designs today, although I will be adding more watches to my stores as I add new artwork.  But right now I'm going to showcase some designs created by other Zazzlers.

**********************

So far, I haven't included any pocket watches in my own stores, but I particularly like this design that can be customized with your own photo and text.  It's available in silver or gold.

This watch featuring a baseball design can be personalized with a child's name, making it a great gift for boys of all ages.

Cards and Gifts for your Valentine

Can you believe, it's almost Valentine's Day again? 

Love it or hate it, there's no ignoring it.  Craft stores (Hobby Lobby, I'm talking about YOU) are filled with Valentine's themed items almost before the last of the Christmas turkey leftovers have been eaten.

So as we are now safely in January, I don't feel so bad posting some links to Valentine's related cards and gifts on Zazzle.

A few years ago I created a Valentine's card featuring these cute cartoon horses floating on a cloud of love hearts. It's been one of my most popular designs and this year, I decided to add this fridge magnet with the same design.

My second most popular Valentine's card design is this one. It's customizable, making it suitable for anyone to send.  You can change it to "to my husband" or "to our son" or add a name if you wish.

I'm a bit of a geek for soft, cuddly things (I have an embarrassingly large collection of stuffed animals at home).  So it's not surprising that I adore these cute little teddy bears with the customizable shirts available at  Zazzle.   The bears are available in three different sizes and the eyes and facial features are embroidered, so they are safe even for the smallest baby. Look at this cute little guy - don't you just want to hug him?

If your Valentine has a sweet tooth, why not tempt him or her with a jar of jelly beans? This one features a cute array of doodled love hearts in shades of pink can be filled with your choice of candy, from mints to pina colada Jelly Belly™candies.

The doodled love heart design is rather popular and is available on other items too, such as this mug. The design displays on both sides of the mug, so whether you are left or right handed, you can see the loving message.

As some of you may know, I create a lot of my designs in the 3D graphics program, DAZ 3D (hence the name of my blog and my original store - 3D Designs by Jayne).

The last of my items I am sharing here today is this nesting Lovers' Mug set featuring my 3D digital artwork "A Night on the Town",  I often get asked if it's a photograph, but it's not, it was created from scratch on my computer in DAZ 3D and then rendered and saved to a file format that can be printed or uploaded for use on sites like Zazzle.

*************************************

The designers on Zazzle have certainly been busy creating Valentine's related designs.  I will share a few with you here.

This T-Shirt was an Editor's Pick when I was browsing through the site today.  I had to giggle a bit because I wondered what the ratio of customers is -- in other words how many women buy this shirt and give it to their husband for him to wear, versus how many men actually buy it for themselves?

 Perhaps I should get this one for myself?

Both the men's and women's T-shirts are available in a variety of styles, colors and fabrics, so you can always find exactly what you are looking for.

Moving on to cards - I like this one featuring  a patchwork of watercolor love hearts.  The pale green background complements the pink hearts perfectly.

This card is a win-win for me. I love cats (we have a house full of them) and I love the soft color and the puffy hearts.

Vintage, or retro designs are very popular with designers on Zazzle and this one, with a Victorian style  featuring Cupid and red roses is particularly attractive.

A New Year, a New Start

Here we are in 2020 and I realize it has been years since I posted in this blog!

But, rather than make excuses for my absence, I thought I would just pull myself together and start over.

The purpose of this blog is two-fold.  First I will be highlighting my own latest designs and artwork that I have created, and showing some of the items on which they are available in my Zazzle and FineArtAmerica stores.

And secondly, I would like to provide a showcase of the work of other artists and designers on #Zazzle by featuring some of their items here.

*******

I started the New Year the way I mean to go on by working on  some new art.  As some of you may know, I use the 3D graphics program DAZ 3D to create my art.  It's a program that allows you to create scenes on your computer, with a 3D environment, including figures, scenery, lighting much like a photographer would stage a photograph.  Then you take a virtual "photograph" of the scene and do the usual post work that any photographer does to create the final image.

Here's my first artwork of the new year, inspired by a card I received at Christmas.  I called it, surprise, surprise, "Dashing Through the Snow".  

Once the image was post processed and ready, it was time to get to work adding it to my Zazzle store.

Naturally, the first thing I did was to add it to a wrapped canvas print. Zazzle's wrapped canvas prints are made from an additive-free cotton-poly blend, making them long lasting and fade resistant.

I also added it to posters and prints for framing, postcards and customizable greeting cards.

Then came the really fun part - adding the image to some of the quality products on Zazzle and posting them to my store.

I won't show them all here, or this post would be a mile long! But here are a few that I am especially happy with:

I love how the image looks on this throw pillow and can just picture it on a sofa beside a roaring fire in a cozy cabin somewhere.

Another item I think my artwork looks especially good on is this custom wall clock. Featured in two sizes, this wall clock is vibrantly printed with AcryliPrint®HD process to ensure the highest quality display.

So that's it for my art today. Now it's time to feature some of the lovely work of other designers and artists on Zazzle. Since my latest artwork features horses in the snow, I've made that the theme of today's links.

I enjoy doing jigsaw puzzles and this one featuring a family of appaloosa horses is especially nice. It's available in a variety of sizes, up to 20" x 30" - 1014 pieces, which I think would be quite challenging!

Postcards are a great and affordable way to collect and share art that you love.  This postcard features two bay horses, with white feathers on their legs and white blazes on their faces, galloping in the snow under a full moon.

Cross-body tote bags are very useful for carrying just about anything and this one features a cute photograph of two foals playing in the snow.

And finally, I've been a fan of the digital artist CWRW since I first got introduced to DAZ3D.  Laurie specializes in dramatic equine art and this poster is an excellent example of her work.
