2004-09-08T17:53:54Dragoness (mailto:dragoness@ladyofdragons.com)NewsThere have been many people who have been waiting for me to run another commission auction. Well, I have some time to do another commission or two, and so I shall! BUT, I won’t be doing an auction. *grins* This time, you have a chance, more than one actually, at ...winning a commission from me! And there’s more, read below.
Firstly... a call for help: Brianne’s Art Raffle.
My good friend Brianne is holding a fund raising raffle to help her mother out of a very desperate and unfair situation. The raffle is for artwork commissions from 40+different artists, myself included, with over 50 prizes overall. Just ONE five dollar raffle ticket buys you a chance at one of the 50 different prizes, including a commission from me! AND you can buy multiple tickets! There's a huge variety of things being offered, and it's for a wonderful cause, so I suggest you all check it out!! Click the banner below for more info!
Second... a call for participants: Dragoness’ Creative Contest!
Some people mat be aware that I am running an art contest over at Gaia Online. Well, I’ve extended the deadline to the end of October and opened up the contest to people outside of Gaia.
How does that work, you ask?
Well, I've added alternative prizes so that people outside of Gaia will have a reason to participate, and a reward for doing so. The top three winners will receive their choice of the Gaia item (October, November and December letters respectively) OR a commission from me (color, ink, and sketch respectively). Sadly I can't offer an art alternative for ALL 34 prizes, (I think I'd kill myself trying @_@;; ) BUT, I'm willing to offer DeviantArt or LiveJournal subscriptions to people who are NOT active Gaia users that win the lesser prizes. The subscription duration will depend on the level of prize won, so the higher the prize value the longer the subscription. (precise details on this will be worked out later) Don’t forget hat the Viewer’s Choice prize is also artwork from me!!
The only hitch is that you have to turn in your entry in the thread at Gaia Online. Sadly I WILL lose track of your entry if you don’t (it’s happened already, sadly enough XP). This requires you to register at Gaia, so you can post your entry in the contest thread. However, it’s free to join and you’re under no obligation to use your account any further, with the exception of me using it to initiate communication should you win a prize!
And lastly-- don't forget-- this contest isn't just for art, it's for writing and other creative outlets. Whatever you're good at - be it scuply, plushies, flash animations, you name it, I wanna see it! Let's get it ON, people!!
Click the banner below to view the contest thread, or the small banner to the right if you want to join Gaia. And if you have any questions, feel free to ask!

ALL of the very belated guest art is now up on the site for all to enjoy. If I missed anyone, and I'm sure I did with all the e-mail changes and hard drive reformats I've endured, then please resend your image and I will add it ASAP! I also apologize that my comments for each piece are a tad on the scrawny side... but after doing 60+ images in one shot you run out of intelligent things to say. XP But, despite that fact, let it be known that I treasure and enjoy every single piece of gift art I receive. I also did not have links for everyone who I've received art from, so if you have an e-mail address or website you want linked along with your image in the guest gallery then e-mail me and let me know.
This update was just guest art, so soon I'll add new artwork from myself, and update the collaborations section. The links section is sadly untouched as well, but that's at the bottom of the priority list. So if you've requested a link exchange and I haven't replied to you, it's not because I'm ignoring you, it's because I'm ignoring that part of my website entirely. >_>;;; *shudders and weeps*
In other news... I've moved to a new hosting service that is MUCH better than what I had before. [pimage] And because of this new fact, you can now all reach The Lair at the following address: lair.ladyofdragons.com!! Even though the old address works (www.ladyofdragons.com/~lair) it's only a forward and will save me some bandwidth if you update your links and bookmarks! Thanks!
As usual... if you find any broken internal links, PLEASE let me know!
Since the last update I have...
Made the following changes:
Modified all pages to reflect new subdomain change (lair.ladyofdragons.com)
Added Jorie and Aelynn galleries to the Guest Gallery

I urge you all to drop into my Deviant Art gallery and poke around. I started it over a year ago but didn’t do much with it until just recently. Well, it’s active again and much more lively. A great deal of the new art I create has and will be posted there immediately, and then will follow on this site during what I hope to be monthly updates.

If you sign-up and tell them I referred you, I get good stuffs!! You'll have to register if you want to rate any of my artwork there.
Since the last update I have...
Made the following changes:
Created a section for PC Gaming related art on the Fan Art page

Lady luck smiled down upon me and I managed to win the October MAG-DX drawing contest with this entry I made for Dolphin-girl. So my character Jorie is now the featured character for December, and Justice has changed the rules so now anyone can enter!! (the eligibility rules used to be more strict) So if you like Jorie and have ever considered doing some gift art for me, now might be a good time to do it, and enter the contest at the same time!
Hmm, I guess that all for now, remember that you can poke around my junk directory and see new stuff I’ve been working on before I post it to the site!
I’m working on the new art update… I SWEAR!!!! =O

I also entered MAG-DX this month, but voting is almost over otherwise I tell you all to vote for your favorite. Well, wish me luck anyways!! =3
Okay, on to other stuff. Because I'm a bum who sucks at updating, I've created a junk folder where I've thrown pretty much all the art that I've had lying around for the past year or so, that isn't up on this site. You can find it here; feel free to pick through it at your leisure. So, even if I do put off actually updating the site for a while longer, at least you get to see the art ahead of time. XP]]>
