Moon Tree Giveaway

As part of the May Giveaway being hosted at Sew Mama Sew (click on the image in the sidebar for more information), I'm giving away this 'Moon Tree' drawing.  It measures approximately 5 x 7 inches and was drawn on kraft card using ink, gel & waterbased marker pens.  It's the first drawing I've done in weeks.  Boy does it feel good to be drawing again!


If you'd like to win it, please leave a comment for this post.  I will ship Internationally.  You can either have it framed or unframed.  And you can either have the frame with or without the glass in it.  I know it's weird but I can't guarantee the glass won't break.  I haven't had great success at sending picture frames through the post intact.

I'll leave the giveaway open until 9:00pm (UK time) Thursday 20th May, after which I'll choose a name at random out of a hat  use a random number generator to pick the winner(s) (see below).  I'll announce the results on Friday and send the drawing out by 24th May. 

EDIT (18 May 2010)> Holy cr*p!!  Due to the overwhelming interest in this giveaway (which I did not anticipate), in addition to the one winner who will receive the original print, I will also pick 10 names at random to receive a smaller postcard print of this drawing.  (I will now be using a random number generator to select the winners - thank you yellow lamp for letting me in on this nifty device!  Although the idea of writing everybody's name down on little pieces of paper is ever so romantic, I can really do without the hand cramp).  If you haven't got a blog or website, please leave your email address when you comment so I can get in touch with you.  Postcard winners will be receiving their cards a bit later as I've just ordered them to be printed.

I've also got other designs in the making so will, in time, be setting up a little shop on etsy.  If you don't mind, I will contact everyone who's commented to let you know when the shop's open.  If you would rather not be contacted, please let me know.  Thank you!

And while you're at it, head over here for my friend Kellee's fabulous giveaway.

Thank you!

Wow, that's beautiful! I love your "nature"-inspired art as much as your shoe-inspired work, reckon you've got a really nice sense of colour too. :) (Also, I would be honoured to go into your magic hat once again...!)
