Personalised Diamante Name Collars and Cat Portraits
I thought I would join this forum as, besides being a cat lover and owner of several wonderful animals over time, my wife and I suddenly find we have cat items for sale. My wife has a costume jewellery shop on Ebay and unexpectedly the diamante names on cat collars have become her top seller! You can view her items at: gogogiftshop items - Get great deals on personalised phone charms, Christening gifts items on eBay.co.uk Shops!
I am a portrait artist and illustrator [ Paul Tucker Portraits Paul Tucker Illustration and do portraits of cats occasionally. Recently I started making prints of 3 of my watercolours for framed prints and also as cards. I sell these at Portobello Road Market where I have a stall when the weather is nice!
Recently I finished a painting of a much-loved cat called [by me!] Fluffy, with whom I lived for many years. He was from Battersea Dogs Home [!] and my ex-partner and I think he is part-Norweigan Forest Cat- besides looks, he comes down trees head first [apparently a trait ]! [ He is the long-haired grey cat].
I sell A4 prints for £35 and cards for £3.50. Postage would be maybe £5 for the prints and not more than a pound for cards. I haven't worked this out yet. Originals take me weeks and I find it difficult to quote.
