Wow, it’s been a long time since I’ve updated this site! Whew! Gee wiz. I bet you’re wondering what I’ve been doing for the past few years? I’ve been working on a ‘Robots!’ book for the lil kiddos! Yup! People would always say, these robots would make a great kids book. And I would say, you’re right but it would take forever. If by forever I meant 3 years then yes, it did take forever. The book is all drawn and painted and ready for the next steps. Those of you who follow me on IG (@oravetzarts) have seen the progress page by page. For those of you who don’t, the book (yet to be titled) is about a young bot named 01 who goes on an adventure after finding a ship in a bottle. A journey complete with pirates, giant squid, and a robot colossus! It was super fun to create this and I really hope you all like it. At this point I’m looking for literary agents to get the project rolling. So fingers crossed! Wish me luck!
In other news… Some of you may have noticed my absence from the craft shows. My apologies to any of you attending the Art Star, or Art For The Cash Poor shows expecting to pick up a bot. I think I’m done with craft shows for the time being (it just wasn’t worth the time and energy). You can still get your bot on right here on this website any time you like. Unfortunately, I had a nasty computer crash and lost almost all the digital copies of the old bots. I still have some of the original drawings but, basically this means that the bots available for sale will be reduced. In fact, to be safe I will likely disable the shopping cart for a bit until it’s all squared away. Sorry for the inconvenience. If you see an unavailable bot that you really can’t live without, feel free to contact me, I bet we can work something out. Commissions are still a thing but as a general rule I am extremely busy, (because life is bananas) so the turnaround time could be up to a month or two not including shipping.
I think that’s it for now! Follow me on instagram @oravetzarts and keep an eye out for updates on the book!
Thank you all!
Peter
TL;DR Site is being updated in lieu of the awesome robot kids book I made. Currently looking for agents. Computer crashed last year, some bots will no longer be available for sale (at least for a while).
