Lucky Armadillo - Ursula Vernon

SQUEEEEEE!

I was the lucky bidder in an e-bay auction of the original of Urusla Vernon's Lucky Armadillo - and it arrived today!

SQUEEEEEE!



I took the image from the e-bay auction, but you can see it, and all her other neato-keen stuff here:

And, in fact, the following two are my favourites, even though it is very hard to choose:

Well, I've hunted and hunted, but I can't find the Lucky Armadillo image on her website, because she usually sells prints - and I always like to read what she has to say about the piece.  Oh, well.  This is now your excuse to spend lots of hours on her site, looking at all her good things - it's research!  :)

Thank you ever so much for giving me this drain on my time so late in the evening! My boss will thank you as well when he finds me asleep at my desk tomorrow...

Ahhh! lucky you!

I wish she'd do some hamsters -- mice seem to be her rodents of choice.

Awww, that's just so cute.

A year and a bit ago I managed to get my paws on one of the limited (10 only) number prints she made of her first winged phalloi. It's only 2.5x3.5", but it's soooo cute. I haven't hung it up yet - for the sensibilities of daughter and her friends - but I think it's about time I got it up soon.

Oh, well done you!

I love Ursula's stuff. One day I shall follow your bold example :-)

(You do read her LJ too, yes? Her writing is almost as much fun as her pictures..)

Ah, that's lovely. I cherish Ursula's work. (Me, I ache and pine just for a print of her Klimt Vulture...)
