03/10/09: New mixed media, ink drawings, edits, and links below. More to come later.
02/16-18/09: Alright, I have updated six new edits (some from christmas) and two BCBG inspired edits. I also updated four painting (One with two views) and added a new link to my "Favorites" link
02/06/09: So! Some of you might have noticed the site was down for a week or so there. The reason is because my computer crashed and it somehow uploaded a blank index page. I had to rewrite the code (and it's still not quite right) but we have at least something able to be navigated. No new art since December, sorry. Mostly because I've been sick and on mandatory Over Time at work (for 8 weeks!) I know, I should be happy these days to have a job let alone mandatory OT. The simple thing is, I got burnt out. 50 hour weeks getting yelled at 10 or more hours a day... its not pretty. BUT enough of that! I do plan on getting a few works up here shortly so stay tuned.
12-3-08: I didn't send out an invite last month so I'll recap the changes. Obviously the layout is different. Please let me know what you think of it! I also added new picture edits, paintings, and change the "commission" link to "ordering" where you can see the products you can get my paintings and pictures on as well as information about requesting your own piece. I'm very excited about this and in time, I should have a better ordering system, but I want to see what the demand will be before I go that far.
11/26/08: Wow, two months in a row...I'm on a roll! Ahem. So, I decided to update my website again not just in material (which will be published within the next day or so) but also a new, cleaner look. I got my inspiration for the layout from the many websites I deal with daily at work, and the constructive feedback from my co-workers and friends. I wanted the focus not to be the website itself, but my work. Please, as always, give me feedback on the navigation. Is it easy to navigate? Are the links in a logical order, etc?
10/24-28/08: Yay! I actually updated within a month from last time! Okay, new sketches, new paintings, new Photo's and a Halloween inspired Photo edit/gif. I also have a WIP, any input on it is welcome!
9/24/08: Between today and tonight/tomorrow I'm adding new picture edits, pencil drawings and paintings. I'm also going to add a "artist" page that will harbor more information on myself, and a "featured artist" page that will include links to some of my favorite artists. Enjoy!
07/05-23/08:****NEW DOMAIN NAME**** Okay, so I revamped the site but I also made a new, easier to remember domain name. (www.meoag.com) Which stands for "Mandy Elliott's Online Art Gallery" Pretty simple huh?
***NEW WORK*** That's right, even though I've been redoing the website, I still managed to do some new picture edits, paintings, and photography! I even have a new spotlight! Check it out and let me know what you think.
***PLEASE,PLEASE,PLEASE*** If you find a broken link, report it! Go to my contact page and let me know what page it's on and what the picture is. When I imported my old site, I had to redo a LOT so I might have missed something in the move.
03/28/08: Sorry it's taken me so long. Many new Colored pencil drawings, you can tell which one's are magnets. If you'd like your own magnet (no bigger than business card size for now) please put in a commission request through my contact page. I'm working with some water color colored pencils my Grandmother Peggy got me for my birthday just past (I'm now twenty-two) and you can see my first work on my paint page. Soon I'll be redoing the whole site, so look forward to that. A few sketch's too, but so far, that's it.
02/01/08: Okay, so there's new pencil and ink drawings, new computer colored drawing, new paintings, and that's it so far. I'm going to be updating again soon , as in again this month. I'm also looking to sell much of my work and ready to do commissions. Please see my contact page for more details.
12/19/07: Eight new picture edits and an updated WIP. Paintings coming as soon as I upload the pictures I've taken. I wont send out the update e-mail until then.
11/20/07: WIP is updated again with two new pictures. One of which has a GIF to show the step by step process of how the picture was made. The other is simply a before and after. All final picture edits can be found under the "Picture Edits" link. Thank you and enjoy.
11/06/07: I'm leaving the last update red because this one is so new. It's a habit I guess. Once I get updating I just keep going. Anyway, you should notice the new link "WIP" which means "Work(s) in progress." WIP is a new feature to show clients who might not be "here" to see the progress of their commission and to make suggestions to the work. You'll notice WIP has it's own contact form, this form should only be used by those who's work is shown here. If you'd like to commission a piece, use my "Contact" form under the "Contact" link. That's it for now. Thanks to all my supporters!
11/01/07: Well, I'm a bit late on the "once a month" updates, but I'm sure you'll forgive me. Today I have twenty-three new photo's, nine new photo-edits, and eight new ink drawings. Plus, I have a new and special SPOTLIGHT. So, check it all out and let me know what you think!
09/22-23/07: I know, I know, I didn't update in august. Sorry! I always mean to keep up, but i rarely can. This update I have a new spotlight, and you can check the link anyway for a link to my Talent Database site where I have an exclusive on the next piece of the "Dream Series" which began with "A Turtles Dream". Please leave me an acknowledgement and you can even create your own listing. It's FREE! As for new art (seen on the listing as well as here) I have one new colored pencil drawing as a tattoo idea for a friend, Five new paintings too. I also think I fixed the pencil and ink page, if it still looks weird, let me know! Thanks and Enjoy!
07/24/07: Please see the previous update if you haven't visited this site since June. On top of those, I have added 20 new picture edits (some not so new but new to this site) and put the AOL profile and web page background samples on a different page, linked off of the picture edit page. Same with avatars and signatures. You'll have to check those sites more frequently for updates as I may or may not post their updates here. Thanks and enjoy!
07/21/07: Since this update is so close to the other one, I'm going to repeat what I updated on the 19th, plus this go around. A lot of new photo's, a couple of sketches, and I've updated the spotlight. I've also added a "Notify me when you update" option on the contact page.
07/19/07: Updated about nine photo's mostly of cats and in black and white. (going to add some archive-not-yet-posted-work in the near future.) Added two sketches. Enjoy.
06/08/07: Because my updates have been quick this go around, I suggest you look at every page. I kept all the new stuff new and added some more new stuff. In the edits page, I've added all the AOL Profile pictures that I've done, so they aren't in the "New" section, but they are new to this website. Enjoy!
06/07/07: New Edit's that I think are cool. I didn't take either the background pictures, nor the figure pictures. They only inspired me to create these works which I enjoyed doing. I hope you enjoy them too.
06/05/07: You may have noticed it's been a while since my last update when I said I was going to try and update once a month. Well, Life got in the way of that and while I kept drawing, I didn't have time to post it. As well, I have been wanting to revamp the site and haven't gotten around to it yet. Hopefully really soon. In the mean time, there are new pencil sketches, Mixed medias, and colored pencils.
01/29/07: Okay, so It's been a while since my last update yes? Well, I've finally put up my "Spotlight" page to let you get into how I come up with this stuff. Also, You'll see some new sketches and new paintings. Enjoy and look for more frequent updates.
10/07/06: Alright, I am limited on my Internet connection for a while, so my updates are few and far between. As of now, I have five new pencil sketches and eleven new paintings. I have to thank Raquel, a woman I work with, for inspiring me to get back into painting and I hope that she does too. Sooner rather than later I'll be adding more to my "me" page (Which you can find by clicking my picture on the Site Information page) as well as a photography page and a "My Twins Art" page. So look back in about a month for those things. Thanks for viewing!
08/25/06: I've added a link to my Elfwood Gallery and highly suggest anyone visiting here take a gander at the artists featured on Elfwood. I owe them for allowing me to post my work so many years ago. It gave me pride and helped me to want to do better to get good reviews from fellow artist. Thanks Elfwood, and Thanks to my fans!
08/23/06: Sometimes I wonder about myself. What I meant to say with that last update was that 60 new works were posted. 23 of which are pencil or ink,9 of which are colored pencil or pastel, and 28 of which are paintings or mixed media's. I must have been really wired or really tired to screw it up that bad.
08/09/06: Okay, A lot of updates today. Most of which are in from my archives (A huge old army trunk I keep my work in). 23 newly posted works done years before; 9 newly posted pencil and pastels; and 28 newly posted paintings. That's 60 works retrieved from my archives! Enjoy.
07/09/06: New colored sketches on my colored pencil page.
06/12/06: I've added two pet portraits to the "Paint and Mixed media" gallery and one sketch. Thanks to my cat Wolfie for sleeping so nicely for me so I could paint him. And thanks to Tinker for taking good pictures. :-) Enjoy.
-05/24/06: I was wandering through Elfwood, a place where I host my art so the world can see and critique, when I came across Jessica 'Vestaka' Douglas, a very good artist. She inspired me to continue my line of butterfly animals. So I did. Four new sketches updated. The colored versions coming soon. As well, in the "Computer colored" section, I have updated two new pictures which I colored. The drawings themselves were done by, Emma JC Nilsson, who gave her permission for me to post them.
-04/08/06: Bonjour! My loyal fans, I shall not disappoint you! One new sketch posted (More to come, my camera batteries died) Two new Pastel drawings (Sorry for their size!) Two new Paintings and four new mixed media's including an old News Paper maskot idea. Sort of... um, loserish, but I thought it was cool when I first did it. So... Enjoy and look forward to new stuff within the month.
-02/26/06: Alright, seven new picture edits. Thank you to Jinger for providing the original pictures for me to play with. Um, I think my submit button is fixed on my "contact" page, so... If you have a problem, e-mail me at "solushospes@aol.com"
-02/03/06: Woah. I put a lot of time into this newest update. There are 17 new sketches and ink drawings, 2 new colored pencil drawings, one new painting, and one mixed media. However, these are older pieces I've finally gotten scanned. It occurred to me as I was posting them, that it would make more sense to have the pages arranged with the oldest ones first and the newest ones last. That way my viewers can see my progress more easily, and identify my updates more easily. SO, I rearranged the pictures. Hope this makes things better. TELL ME WHAT YOU THINK!
-02/02/06: 2 New computer colored pictures. An animations showing the step by step on how I created them. :-) Enjoy.
-01/31/06: Added three new sets of picture edits. It should be noted, that they are in the order that I did them, so you can see the progress I've made in picture editing from the first to the last. I am very proud of myself.
-01/17/06: Thirty-Six new sketches and ink drawings. Two new drawings in the colored pencil and Pastel gallery. One new painting (Long awaited I know). And One new edit on the photo edit page.
-01/05/06: Alright, well, stupid me, I didn't notice that my contact page wasn't working. So no one could contact me to tell me, it wasn't working. How ironic no? Anyhow, that's fixed now. Haven't done any other updates, but I hope to within the month. HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!!
-12/09/05: Four new desktop quality pictures on the "Photo Manipulations" site. Check them out and let me know what you think!
-12/08/05: Alright. I believe all the images should be viewable. As always, any links that aren't working, or aren't working properly, let me know. I'm so excited about this new site. Give me input! I'd love to know what viewers think of the new layout. Good, bad and ugly, I can't improve if I don't have second opinions.
-12/07/05: All the pages are up and running, the images have been put on the site, but It seems many of them are not showing up. Please be patient while I correct this problem and check back in a couple of days.
-12/06/05: The new site is underway and under construction. Please be patient with me as I create each page and make sure everything is working properly. If you see a link that isn't working, or have any suggestions that might make this page better, feel free to contact me and let me know. I would be most appreciative.
