Okay, I know I updated recently, BUT BUT BUT--
I've been waiting ages for this package to arrive, and I'm so excited!
It was a package of two limited edition prints by one of my favourite artists, Ursula Vernon. She's, er, probably best known for being the person who painted the Biting Pear of Salamanca. A few years ago she put out a limited print illustrating a plague doctor as the Taxman. This year's release was also of that character, and I just had to have them.
I received the package last night, but I was too tired to be excited about it.

Taxman II, the sequel. Better version in her gallery here. This one is #2 (there were 80 prints produced).

Tea with the Taxman. Better version in her gallery here. This one is #2/60.
I'm just so happy about these, ahhhh. I can hardly wait to get them framed. I still need a proper frame for the original Taxman, actually - right now he's just in a cheap plastic postercover, guh.
I hope that some day I'll be able to own one of her originals, ahhh. But right now most of them are wayyyy out of my price range.
