I know I've been incredibly quiet lately, but it's been for a good reason: I'm one semester away from being a certified librarian! Yes, that's right... in December, I will have completed my Masters of Library and Information Science degree and will hopefully have time to pursue my art on a freelance basis again. </p><p>Now, given that "information science" is part of my degree title, I've also become more aware of the technical and accessibility nuances of web development, copyright, and web presence, so be on the lookout soon for a revamped website with images that are no longer broken links. I have not yet decided if I will stay on the Blogger platform or if I will switch to Google Sites for a portfolio-style website, but changes are on the way either way. </p><p>I am still creating, and in fact, after finishing my <a href="https://sites.google.com/view/medieval-poetic-epics-9428/introduction"><span style="color: #cfe2f3;">History of Books and Media final project (a website) for my summer course (link here)</span></a>, I actually created a redesigned cover of Angie Thomas's <i>The Hate U Give</i> as part of the Springfield-Greene County Library District's (where I currently work in a grant position in Local History and Genealogy) Banned Books Week fundraiser. It will be available for purchase along in September with a number of other banned book trading cards designed by some of my coworkers this past month. </p><p>I would like to share a preview, but at present, I haven't figured out how to make a thumbnail version that cannot be zoomed in, and this is one case where I do not want anyone being able to save it to their computer. It's a fundraiser, after all, not just my own work for my own purposes. </p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><p></p>Nikihttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07340004946220225260noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1890688781846694984.post-28743594449136537272021-06-10T20:16:00.003-05:002022-07-31T19:50:25.575-05:00Image Issues<p> I'm aware that the links to a number of images on the site are now broken. I apologize for this, and when I have a little more time on my hands, I'll get them sorted out. For now, I believe most of the images are currently still viewable on my portfolio website:</p><p><a href="http://www.designedbyniki.com"><span style="color: #cfe2f3;">www.designedbyniki.com</span></a></p><p>Thank you for understanding! I've been working many, many hours of overtime over the past couple of years, so I haven't had a chance to update the site. I've recently resigned from the position and will be taking on small batches of projects in between classes, so I want to make sure everything is up to date.</p>Nikihttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07340004946220225260noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1890688781846694984.post-4479752155405111872018-08-26T17:37:00.000-05:002018-08-26T17:37:06.807-05:00Sassy<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on">

<br /></div>
<div>
I did want to post an update, for those of you who've been following on my BFA journey thus far. I've had to take a hiatus from school until further notice, as teaching classes are getting thinner, and tuition is getting higher. Cheery news, eh? I've been upping my freelance writing work lately, though, so that's getting some more traction, at least.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
But... pictures! Yes! I must share them! If you'd like more description, I did post more details at my portfolio website, www.designedbyniki.com, so feel free to check that out. I'm about out of word power after 6 or more hours of writing, so...</div>

<br />
<a href="https://www.facebook.com/GinnytheGiraffeDoesGymnastics"><span style="color: #fff2cc;">Ginny the Giraffe Does Gymnastics</span></a> (link goes to the Facebook page) has launched a Kickstarter campaign to help cover publishing and supply costs! Donations as small as $5 have fun incentives, and as long as we meet our minimum fundraising goal, we can get this show on the road! The more we have coming in, the sooner we can get published, because like most artists these days, we're doing this in our spare time since we like to, y'know, eat and have roofs over our heads. <br />
<br />
Even if you can't donate much, every little bit adds up, so please don't be shy! We have to make our minimum fundraising goal to receive any funds at all, and there are only 60 days left to meet our goal. <br />

Please share this link if you can--even if you can't afford to donate, simply getting the word out covers a lot of ground.Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1890688781846694984.post-13890174441073679852014-05-18T01:04:00.001-05:002014-05-18T01:04:22.283-05:00Project Teaser: Ginny the Giraffe!I can't share too much yet, but I'm working on illustrating a friend's book for children, and here are a couple of teaser images for the main character (and my first two concept drawings). Don't worry--I'll be sharing more information, including how to buy the book, soon, but for now, just a little taste:<br />

In honor of the sunshine of my life, <span style="font-size: large;">between now and April 7 at 11:59 p.m.</span> central time, all custom portrait/painting orders placed will receive <b><span style="font-size: x-large;">$50 off</span></b>! This means the starting price for a 16x20" portrait, which usually starts at $150, is <b><span style="font-size: x-large;">now $100</span></b>! This is a temporary sale, ending on April 8, so don't wait too long!<div>

<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Note: In order to qualify for $50 off, the down payment (generally $25) and contract must be received by April 14, at 11:59 p.m. This contract simply puts in writing the agreed-upon price and ensures both of us are clear on deadlines for both the project and the final payment in case of any miscommunications. It also puts in writing your requests and/or preferences for the painting so no one is operating on assumptions. :) </div>

Step Right Up!Ladieeees and gentlemennnnn... I have free time for projects, so please let me know if you're wanting anything painted or created! Generally, with the hours I have now, I can tackle about one 16x20" portrait per week, two weeks being my safety net, so don't be shy! I'm eager to have something to work on, and, well, I need the extra income for the next few months--at least until July. This is the best time there is all year long for ordering a portrait, so don't wait too long!<br />
<br />
Starting price for a custom portrait, 16x20" being my basic size, in acrylics, is $150. You'll get a lot of time and focus for that price, so it's a good deal. Message me here, or email me at Niki@Brushstrokes-by-Niki.com if you're ready!<br />
<br />
<br />
On another note, I posted the fall semester's artwork to my portfolio page, so please feel free to check it out! <br />
<br />

Time sure flies when you have not a moment to yourself...<br />
<br />
The semester is coming to an end, and final exams will wrap up this Thursday. Around that time, I should be receiving the rest of my projects back from Color Theory and Printmaking, and I'll be sure to create a photo post for each. :)<br />
<br />
There are some major changes and transitions in the works, but it's too early to say much about it, as there are many details that could go in very different directions yet. So... stay tuned.<br />
<br />
Meanwhile, because I must tease you and hold out a little longer (for the sake of keeping this poor old page halfway organized!), I'll give you a little something to chew on: digital art (some photography, some illustrations, and some digitally manipulated photography) I created this semester for use in various CT and Printmaking projects.<br />
<br />
Get ready, because there are quite a few:<br />

<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
The glue stinks to high heaven, which is why it's on the stove--yay for oven fans!<br />
<br />
It's about 6-8 inches wide (I haven't measured yet), and the color is more teal than straight blue.<br />
<br />
Now, I want to hear from you. This is not a commissioned piece--it's just me following my own instincts, hoping to sell it on Etsy or locally (and at a price where I'll actually be able to pay a couple of bills, y'know, and all... ;) *ahem*). So, I want to know which you think I should make this into:<br />
<br />
*An elaborate hat pin<br />
*Part of an actual top hat<br />
*Part of a 16x20" mixed media collage for the wall or mantle<br />
<br />
I'm going to decide soon, so let me know in the comments here on the blog or on the <a href="https://www.facebook.com/BrushstrokesbyNiki" target="_blank">Facebook page</a>! After tomorrow (Sunday), there'll be no going back!Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1890688781846694984.post-81538502097902278982013-07-03T11:42:00.002-05:002013-07-08T01:37:07.298-05:00Steampunk Hat Pin and GogglesSteampunk goggles! Completed 7/2/13, made from welding goggles, paint, and actual clock gears. Want it to look more aged? Let me know, and I'll add the tarnish/wear effect. The goggles go up on Etsy Thursday morning if no one local buys them (local purchases avoid shipping costs, so it's a good deal to get these pieces early!). Additionally, I can swap out the elastic band with a faux leather band with metal brads if requested for an additional cost, based on material costs. Goggles and hat pin are sold separately.<span style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18px;"><br /></span>

Steampunk hat pin! Completed 7/2/13, made from polymer clay, costume feathers, copper and black metal wire, and metal necklace charm. It goes up on Etsy Thursday morning if no one local buys it (local purchases avoid shipping costs, so it's a good deal to get these pieces early!). Better photos coming soon in the daylight. Lamplight does tend to affect color perception, even after editing the photos. :)Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1890688781846694984.post-34167642734287361692013-07-01T13:22:00.001-05:002013-07-01T13:22:33.515-05:00The First Steampunk Piece!Unique steampunk choker/short-length necklace. Completed 6/30/13. Available for purchase, but only one exactly like this is available, so first come or best offer above production cost--first served!<br /><br /><div>
The first finished piece available for purchase! If no one local buys it beforehand, it goes on Etsy.com Wednesday morning!</div>

Okay, peoples, I'm looking for some items for a couple ideas I have for art pieces I'll either add to my portfolio, use, or sell to someone who's down with the theme. (Finally--an idea that's completely independent of school!) So, if you're cleaning house or browsing a thrift store and see these for, oh, 50 cents or a dollar, please pass them along to me, and if you bought them, I'll pay you back if you really did find it for $.50-$1.00. The key here is not to donate anything that means something to you, as it's going to be taken apart or reassembled in different ways<br />
<br />
*Analog clocks and watches with no emotional attachments (I'll be taking them apart)--big and small both!<br />
*Broken/non-working antique clocks<br />
*Old-fashioned keys (think skeleton or ornate) with nothing to unlock OR along with their matching padlocks<br />
*Ornate but cheap, aged jewelry, especially if it has wings, is an animal of any sort, is floral, or has elegant scrolling lines, colorful gems, etc.<br />
*Old books with missing and yellowing pages, especially those from great writers like Jules Verne and H.G. Wells; also, copies of photos from that time period (I'd feel horrible if I defaced an actual antique photo)<br />
*Antique (especially Victorian style but cheap) jewelry/accessories, including cameos, chains, pocket-watches, pince-nez, monocles, top hats, aviator goggles, rusted/tarnished nuts and bolts, leather belts, [canvas-sized or smaller] wheels, gears, wind-up keys, ruffles, lace, etc.<br />
*Garment items are welcome, but remember: I can't sew! Or, rather, I can barely sew, so it kind of needs to be items that can be assembled to others without needle or thread.<br />
<br />
Geeks like myself probably figured it out before finishing reading the first item on the list, but total nerd cred to whoever figures out the theme I'm planning to play with this summer during my freelancing time. I will say that I'm looking for a variety of sizes here, as I'm looking at playing with making jewelry and accessories as well as mixed-media collages/paintings--possibly even sculpture. I'll definitely be throwing in my own twists on the theme, but if you're familiar with it, I think you'll know what I mean.<br />

Obviously, I'll be looking for these items myself, but remember, other than my freelance work this summer, I have no income, so the more I can acquire by donation or very small prices, the better off I'll be. Also, sooner is best. Toward the end of summer, I'll either be settling into a new job or preparing to head back to teach.<br />
<br />
Oh, and if you come across a cheap dress form, standard female bust (so I can do work with necklaces, hats, etc.), and hand-shaped jewelry-holder, I'd love to have them as well! They'll make great displays and anchors for the wearable projects.Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1890688781846694984.post-43322752188599655542013-05-29T19:54:00.002-05:002013-05-29T19:54:21.886-05:002013 Freelance Projects as of the End of MayObviously, until classes let out, I didn't have much time to do freelance work, but believe me, the moment I submitted grades, I pulled out the paintbrushes and finished Scout's memorial painting:<br />

I've got two more projects in the works, but otherwise, I'm open for freelance orders! I've got the summer off from teaching (not by choice, but when they cut budgets, we part-timers feel it first), so unless I find a graphic design job before fall classes begin, I'll have plenty of time for painting and crafting, and I hope to be able to do a project for you. If you have questions about pricing, media, and options, check out the FAQs first, then email me at niki @ brushstrokes-by-niki .com!<br />

Have a great summer, everyone!Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1890688781846694984.post-27698619265140590512013-05-29T19:47:00.000-05:002013-05-31T17:02:01.270-05:00Spring 2013 ProjectsAcademically, spring 2013's semester kept me busy pretty much every waking moment of the day with some VERY time-consuming projects. I had a painting instructor who was very technique-and-form focused, which definitely was a challenge, and I did have to swallow a bitter pill with earning a B+ (but humility is a virtue, right? ;) And I did learn a lot.), despite my best efforts. My three-dimensional design class was the one that really consumed my time, though, with three major projects (as well as a couple small ones whose images I'll post here tomorrow) that required a lot of ingenuity.<br />
<br />
As with the earlier posts, I'll add captions soon, as well as explain some of the more abstract ideas. :)<br />
