About the Project

The ZooTrophy Animal-a-Day project began on October 15th, 2013 as illustrator Angela "LemurKat" Oliver began working her way, systematically but selectively, through the alphabet and presenting, via social media, an illustrated animal to the world. Daily.

All pieces are drawn as 2.5 x 3.5 inch collectible cards, using a combination of polychromos and prismacolor pencils, along with other art materials. Many are still available for purchase ($10) or trade, so drop her an email if anything captures your eye or if there is an animal you wish to request.

It is predicted this project will take her at least two years to complete - with approximately 36 animals being drawn for each letter. She has also used the images to create a collectible hardback encyclopedia series, playing cards and a desk calendar, as well as the ZooTrophy collectible trading card game.

Art Clean-out: Make an offer



I have a large amount of Art Cards in my collection and it it time to add a few to your collections, so  if you wish to own an original piece of my miniature art, pop along to the blog and look for the "Available" tag (currently tagged back to N).

Then comment underneath (or email me if you prefer) with the price you are willing to pay. All offers will be considered, but I reserve the right to decline. These cards are generally sold for $10 each. Some I will let go for much less, others I am more attached to.

Declining will not necessarily be due to low offering price - I would also like to spread my art out between as many people as possible, so if you request a lot of cards (or all the best ones), you may find some declined.

If an offer has already been made but not yet declined or accepted, please DO NOT outbid the original offerer. This is NOT an auction. Wait and see if I accept it. If it is declined, then you can make your own offer.

Payment is via Paypal or bank deposit (NZers only), cash may be accepted in special circumstances (such as I know you personally). Payment must be received before cards will be posted. Postage will be an additional extra of $2.50 international, $0.80c NZ. Combined shipping for up to 7 cards. Any more than that and you may find some are declined!

I am not accepting Art Card trades at this time. Sorry.

Please note that whilst most of these cards do measure 2.5 x 3.5 inches, some are over-sized. If you make an offer on an over-sized card, I'll let you know and you can withdraw the offer if you like (or I can trim the card, but will lose some of the image).

The Rules:
 * Once your offer has been accepted, payment must be made within 3 days via one of the aforementioned methods. After that period, the card will become available again.
* Please do not outbid previous offers. Watch and wait to see if it is accepted.
* If you request more than 5 cards, some offers may be declined.
* When I accept your offer, I will confirm the card is still available (and double-check if it is over-sized) and send you payment details.
* I reserve the right to decline your offer.
* Once payment has been made and address given, the card will be posted to you within 3 days.
* Buyer must pay shipping, combined is available, will be advised of price at time of offer confirmation.
* Cards will be signed and dated on the front, slipped into plastic sleeves (unless oversized) and packaged with card for postage. The back will be signed, dated and give the animal's species.
