Galleries back

And you may notice from the happy little logo there on the left, I have switched hosting over from GoDaddy to Dash Systems. Hopefully this will solve all of the previous problems.

Please bear with me as I rename/describe all the images in the galleries.

Thanks for your patience!

Galleries Crashed

Apologies and many angry faces at wordpress or godaddy – the culprit is still being determined.

If you’d like to look at art might I direct you to my facebook fan page (link is to the left) or you can click here

Apologies!

My galleries seem to have gone to that place where bad things go.  Perhaps in a handbasket.

With any luck this will be resolved shortly.  Failing that, the new site should be up in the next week or so.

Thank you for your patience and if you feel like dealing with otherwise hosted online galleries, please see my work on facebook (http://www.facebook.com/pages/Laura-Garabedians-Artwork/212014834464)  or on deviantart (http://lauragarabedian.deviantart.com/)

Oye A-Kon

Just got back from A-Kon…. Crazy crazy funfunfun and exhausted.

Will update more shortly…

Apologies and a plea

Okay, so you all have my deepest apologies. And sincerest pleas. Apparently the fact that I am following the law and reporting the money that I make to unemployment has just screwed me over. They now need to know why I didn’t make money during certain weeks. Who it was that no longer requires my services. So I need to contact the last person who paid me before I didn’t make money for a week. And this has happened twice. Once at Furry Fiesta and at the beginning of may. So I need to find out who it was. Luckily I did in fact have the e-mail of one, and the other paypalled me. But seriously? Why do I need to inconvenience MY CUSTOMERS every time I miss a week of payment. So this is my apology. To those two customers, I will be contacting you within the next hour. You have my DEEPEST apologies, TWC will apparently be contacting you to ask why you haven’t bought anything else from me. I am SO sorry. I will also be sending you a thank you present for your patience.

And my plea.
I need to make some money.
any money.
Every week, or I will keep having to do this nonsense.

My First Convention! AKA Furry Fiesta 2010

Furry Fiesta in Addison was my first convention, and I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Though it does make me wonder why I didn’t start doing this sooner. I came both prepared and unprepared. I was ready to do badges… ish – MANY thanks to myenia for all her help and letting me borrow all the stuff I didn’t have, and to the fabulous person who let me buy some laminating sheets off of them on friday- I just didn’t take into account HOW important they were/what to bring. I was ready for sketchbooks. Didn’t have quite as many prints OR originals as I probably should have. And probably should have had some linework or graphite originals that could have been cheaper than the full color pieces I brough. I need to get a better setup for my pendants/charms/things so people know they are available. Also need to get the ACEO’s cut earlier next year. Had them cut out but never got a chance to finish them in time for the con, and didn’t have enough time at the con either. Met some WONDERFUL people most notably myenia and Lucky Kojak who were booth buddies there. Also a few people who I don’t know if they have DA accounts… so yeaaah. Forrest, Mouse, Mur, SailorAnne, Sisuke (sp?), Taigitsune, Jinx, Ivvy, Mitsu, Friend with the red collar, and the rest of you that I’m sure to have forgotten your names and would recognize you on site – Thanks for stopping by, for chatting, for the commissions. You all absolutely rock, and made my first convention an AMAZING ONE!

Welcome!

Hello and welcome to the new website of Laura Garabedian and Antimony art.  I am so pleased and proud to have this site available for you to peruse and visit at your leisure.  My fantastic Web Designer has helped me to get so many fantastic features on this site.  You can buy prints and originals much easier, there is a RSS subscription for this, my blog area, and of course, you can now share the images you find here via e-mail or any popular social networking site.  Since this is a new website, please, let me know if you find any of it confusing, we are still tweaking some things.  I will be posting various autobiographic comics here as well, should you be interested, and can’t wait to hear feedback from everyone.

Best Always,
Laura
