Tamisery's talent is beyond words!  I've known her since she entered the MLPArena and asked her for some advice on how to improve my art. I consider her one of my best friends in the whole wide world, even if we still need to meet in person!

I can't honestly tell you how amazing she is. She's good at drawings, paintings, sculpting, digital art, vectors. You name it, she will make an excellent job! She has some amazing pieces that I just drool and drool for, I need them all in my life T^T

I own 2 prints from her, and sculpted earrings from a long time ago (I lost one at Space Mountain in 2012 T^T) ,  you can definitely feel the love and care she puts on her products, amazing quality on her homemade prints and incredible attention to detail in every image she produces!

Next one is:


I loove her ID! ^


Piquipauparro!

Where does her talents end? No idea!

When I was introduced with her, on an online group, she made this curious, fabulous digital and traditional drawings. From there, she started to make adorable fabric kitty companions (I have some of them !)  and today she makes the most amazing, impressively detailed characters plushies! She's another example of attention to details, fromt he fabric choice, to what she uses for bases and accessories and final detailing for her works.


Beautiful handmade Toothless plushies!
She has also made needle-felt dolls and sculptures, fur suits for a local business in Mexico City, tiny polymer clay sculptures, oh gosh, you won't get tired of her work!  She's aiming to increase her range of products to a more affordable range as well with some DIY projects!  I can't wait to check on her future projects!  I know some, but I won't tell you ! =D

You can mainly check her updates on her pages:



As far as I know, as she lives in Mexico, international shipping for the holidays makes it difficult for her to send items to other countries during this months. But you can write her for future commissions info or for her to include you in her wait list for next year!  She's a busy girl that spends all day trying to get more ideas flowing!  (you need to rest! >:( )

I love my kitties! I will bring them with me in January <3 Visit her page for gooorgeous plushie art!!

She is currently trying to help her family as she works from the time she gets up to the time she finally decides to go to sleep at night.  Please, support her work by purchasing directly from her and by sharing her pages! =D  So she can sleep more and be strong, healthy and happy to keep doing what she loves more in the world <3  ^-^


Starting with the custom vinyl toys section, my list is too wide, but I'll be featuring my favorite customizers eventually.  For today, I'd like to start with one of my friends and amazing supporter, Studio JujuB !




Miss C, owner of Studio JujuB, is a very talented artist as well!  She makes this incredible Dreadlocks My little ponies that add a really incredible piece for your collections! I believe her works deserve much more viewers!  As a customizer, I know materials can get really expensive and doing any kind of weird idea consumes time, effort and an incredible amount of patience to be developed!  

G3 TE Masquerade with dreadlocks!  how amazing is that? ! 

She's currently starting to develop more digital art of her amazing selection of OC's, as well as small crafts if you're looking for a little special gift for someone in your life! I own a little cute clay bear she gave me as part of a little giveaway she made, it's a gorgeous piece I have on display in my small studio, on my inspiration shelf <3 She takes commissions, don't forget about that!

Don't mind my shelf <3  <3  Go and check her art and crafts and get something for yourself of a loved person!!

Visit her sites for more info and more pics of her pieces!







Last but not least important! (you know, it's difficult to choose orders between loved friends and awesome artists!), let me introduce you to BlueAlhena <3

More of her awesome art at http://bluealhena.deviantart.com/



This wonderful lady is also one of my favorite persons in the world, she works non-stop, has an EdD. and she's aiming to publish books for children <3  She's also into drawing, painting, craft making aaand ! She makes awesome dishes and desserts! <3   But it's hard to show you how good she is cooking, so I will focus on how amazing she's at drawing =D

Her images are usually made with markers, which she adoores. But she developed a series of 4 paintings depicting Seasons for a local little dessert store ran by a dear friend:

paintings she made with acrylics and are now showing on the store <3

One of my favorite pieces from her is "Hada Morgana"  which I think I've seen in person (she's also the girlfriend of one of my best friends <3 and he had this little collection of her drawings  * melts * ).  Hada Morgana has all the details I love of her works, watching it in person lets you see all the details and blending that she develops as well as her amazing style for making cracks on drawn walls and jewels <3

I'm not sure if she's taking commissions, but you can always ask!  She's really fast and dedicated and has this impressive attention to detail that you will love to see your OC in her style!  She uses to go to a local convention in Mexico, last one was this weekend =)

Do you want a wonderful pic for your loved one this next Valentine's day?  Visit her page, drop her a message and open the door to her wonderful world of magic and color! I'm sure you'll loooooove what she will make for you!

And, that's it for today =)

I will see if I can get my ideas together and try to make a weekly feature for my favorite pieces on a week ^-^  So I can feature more and more of my dear friends and favorite artists!!  This group of girls is really close to my heart, they're gorgeous persons as well as incredibly talented artists and crafters (multitasking as well!! ) 

This plan will start next Monday!  I hope to be able to make it during the holidays!  My phone is not the best way to feature anything, I swear =|

Well,  I'll have to get back to work. I hope you liked this little post, remember to support your friends and favorite artists by sharing their work with your people!!

See you tomorrow! <3

When you have cute pony toys and you turn them into zombies.

Crazy Lily

"They were playing hide and seek in the graveyard.
Yes. 
They were.
Who were they? – She asks herself every time when the hunger goes away.
There were laughs, yes, lots of laughs. Yet, she never moved from this gravestone… why? Why was everybody laughing?
Oh yes!
“I was counting!” – she smiled.
“1 … 2 …3 … “ – she knew she was counting, although her voice sounded so weird… “… 10… 11… 12…” there was no sound but her voice in the graveyard. “98… 98… 100!”
“Ready or not, here I come! “ she started walking, searching for her laughing friends, until the chain stopped her… Again.
At the distance, she saw curious faces. She could hear them laughing. She could smell their fear or excitement. Excitement was the best. 
She stopped pursuing her invisible friends and returned to the gravestone lying on the rocks, closing her eyes, lowering her muzzle to the ground. It never takes too much time until she can feel something touching her. One poke… 2 pokes… then she feels something pushing her. “ …3 …4… 5…”
And then laughs. 
“It’s so stupid! Dumb zombie! Hahahaha Look, look!” 
“Stop it! “ said another voice with fear “come on, let’s go! We shouldn’t be here!” 
“How boring, she’s sleeping, c’mon Crazy Lily, come and get us!!! Hahaha” 
The little pony was strongly poking her back, she didn’t feel pain, not even when her skin was breaking by the touch of the little pony hoof. 
And then… 
“100” 
Laughs always turn into screams. Yes, always. 
That day, it was the same. They were playing hide and seek, she was counting while they ran to hide. They all were laughing. And then she heard the screams. 
Yes, she remembers. 
Her own screams. 
And then, silence. 
She looked at the forest around her, nobody was around. The screams and cries stopped, warm blood ran through her mouth. 
“I was counting, they were laughing… yes”
“Who were they?"".

Description

"Crazy Lily" is a custom pony made by me, Dianita. I used a g3 pony as a base and epoxy sculpt, acrylic paints, glossy sealant and swarovski crystals and a chain for her details. Her base is also designed and built by me using a wood plaque, acrylic paints, moss from a crafts store, glossy sealant, a spare block from what appears to be our new kitchen previous remodeling and lots of strong glue to keep it all together <3

As you can see, she was designed and made with lots of love and care, yes, lots of love, even if you don't believe it =)

My Lil' Zombies are an ongoing series of custom My little ponies that I started a few years ago and have become popular from time to time. They were mentioned in the most amazing feature from FearNET.com and have found loving homes in the most amazing families I could ever ask for in Germany and the USA.

I currently don't take commissions for custom ponies as they're very personal projects and I like to keep this hobby as something personal and fun. So from time to time, listings like this will pop in my store so it's your better chance to own one original and special design that will not be recreated in the future.

If you decide to give her a home, you agree that this is a display-only piece. It's not meant for kids to play or even to touch. It doesn't have sharp edges, but pieces can break and cut skin or be swallowed. So please, do not allow your kids to play with this pony. Of course, this means that if it falls to the ground, it might break, as any delicate piece. I will not be held responsible if you break it.

Shipping will be made in the most careful possible way to make sure your pony will be delivered safely. The inside will not look fancy, but it's for your pony's good, trust me.

This said, inside the USA I ship my items through Priority Mail . For international destinations, please contact me with your info to give you a more exact quote, I'm giving the most accurate prices I can offer right now for the most usual destinations.

However, in case that you choose not to buy insurance or registered mail for your package, I can't be held responsible for any kind of problem during the shipping process.

You can see more of my works onhttp://www.artbydianita.com and follow my future projects (art and crafts, including custom toys) athttp://www.facebook.com/dianitaart.

Custom ponies production stopped til further notice =(



 (Pony in progress, missing its gross factor because her blood won't shine without a gloss glaze T^T)

Today I went to my local Home Depot, with hopes to find a polyurethane water based glaze for some charms I'm making and of course, for my custom ponies. My surprise was that I just found oil-based glazes from Minwax, and that they're not going to carry more polyurethane glazes for wood any longer. This is a crazy situation and sadly, all my projects will be delayed til I find something good to work with.  Sculpey Gloss Glaze whas my favorite varnish, until it started to crack the painting. For some projects looks cute and it adds some elements of surprise. But in other projects, well, it's disappointing

So, I won't be working on the projects I expected to work before closing all sales during mid-November, in order to avoid Xmas rush and mail delaying. It happened to me once, sent a pony on the first week of December and it arrived til February. =|  And I was lucky it got there!

I will be working on ponies, but I will have to take them with me to the USA next time I go, hopefully now as a permanent resident.  I'm sad, because I have a couple projects that will be shipped to Europe that will cost 10 times more to send from USA than from Mexico =(  But quality goes first.

I'm in the search for this water based glaze, it must exist something !  I have some charms on hold and I don't want to deliver them with cracks!

So I guess that I will be focusing this couple months to my drawings and paintings more than my crafts T.T


Well, happy weekend to everybody... <3
