Lips. How can you not love them. I'm intrigued by them. Some people have thin lips, some fat, some with thin tops and fat bottoms. I have no problem with thin lips. With the right curl they can look just as good as the plump lips.
I was painting lips one day... I guess they were on my mind. I painted these lips from imagination and from memory of my observation of my favorite lips.
I just listed LIPS for sale this ACEO* (Art Card Editions Originals), giclee** reproduction of my original acrylic painting. This Art Card is standard 3.5" x 2.5". Check out the listing at http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?listing_id=12982556 or my shop, Victoriasart
*Art card, editions and originals
An offshoot of Artist Trading Cards are the "art card, editions and originals" (ACEO). ACEOs originated when some artists began to create cards to sell, in addition to trading among themselves. The selling of these cards is a sore point with some ATC enthusiasts; but, of course, the provision that cards should not be sold is not an enforceable one. Trading cards in other areas such as sports have also been traded and sold. The practice is meant to explore the temporal miniature in art, to augment the income, increase visibility, circulate small works more widely, as well as increase their patronage.

***Giclee= A giclee (pronounced "zee-clay") comes from the French word, "fine spray". It is a digital plotter-based (large format) print that is produced by the application of millions of tiny ink droplets sprayed onto fine art paper or canvas. The archival based inks used are specially formulated so that the fine print heads spray droplets at a resolution of 1200 dpi. The media used is also of archival grade and can last from 100 to 200 years. The visual quality of the print is extremely high and the color saturation and definition stunning.
