"Sounds good to me. I've been stacking paintings up over there according to size, and sculptures on that back table there. Anything else you find can just go in the closet back there, heh. I'll get to them later." Even if the place was a bit of a mess he was hoping it wouldn't be soon enough. All the dragon needed to do was to get in the habit of finishing a project and sending it out right away instead of letting it sit.

Icey was not to worried about the mess. She could look over things like that. She walked over to the table that had the paintings on it so that she could get started helping him. ‘’okay I will get started on the paintings first.’’ she said with a smile. She could understand that it could be kind of hard to get a whole lot of stuff packed up all at once. It may have been just a bit easyer for him to have gotten it all done at once in the first place but she did not really mind either way.

"Great. Don't worry too much about being extremely delicate, I use some pretty strong canvas so it'll last. Even if I use the best paint it doesn't do any good if the canvas rips at the slightest breeze after all. Just be sure when you start packing something up you've got the right label for it. I think one or two of the guys had multiple paintings done, all the frames should be signed though. Heh, at least on that part I was thinking ahead."

Icey smiled as she sorted out the paintings.She was glad that the paintings were durable. She did not really mind being super careful but it made things alot easyer for her to do things if she did not .''Okay that is a good thing.I do not think that many people would want to buy them if they did not last all that long.'' She said with a smile.She would get around to putting them in the right boxes.'' So their names would be on the frames then.

"Yeah. I do the frames myself too. Always sign my name as the artist on the canvas under the frame, and the name of the person in the painting on the frame. I had, and this was years and years ago when I was starting out, the customer complained in five, ten, maybe fifty years nobody looking at it would even know who the painting was of. So, I got in the habit pretty early of making sure their name would stick with them. Providing the frame stays the same, heh."

Icey could understand why someone would want to know who the painting was about. It could be kind of confusing otherwise. She was starting to make a litttle progress on getting the paintings sorted out. In anouther few minuts or so she would have them all sorted out. ''Oh really. You must be very talented if you are able to do all of this kind of stuff.'' She said with a smile. She had now finshed sorting the paintings out. She was kind of glad that it did not take all that long.

"Thanks. I try my best and that's about all anyone can really hope for. I enjoy making art and people enjoy seeing it, as long as I'm spreading a little bit of joy I'm going to keep doing it." Now if only he could get some of the more delicate figurines packed up. He really wasn't too thrilled when people asked for things like a sword in their hand or a walking stick, sometimes even a ponytail could be difficult. They were always so fragile, no matter what he tried he could never keep those little pieces strong. And so, he was forced to use some pretty strong packing stuff or else he'd have a bunch of upset clients.

Icey smiled to the dragon as she listened to what he said. She could understand why he would want to be happy and help others at the same time. She could also see why he would want to try to make his art to where it would last as long as possible. There were not many people who would buy things if they did not last them. ''I see. Okay I am done with sorting the paintings. What else would you want me to do.'' she said with a smile.

"Hmm, well, if you'd like, you could help me pack them all up. I'm kind of... an over-packer sometimes. Usually I slide them into a big envelope, pad that envelope, and put it carefully in a sturdy box. Never know what might happen in the mail after all. Putting them in boxes also means I can send all of the paintings that go to the same person in one container rather than several." Which also increased the risk of damaging them if someone in the mail was really clumsy with just that one box. But it meant fewer chances for him to slip up and lose half of an order.

Icey smiled knowing what the dragon said was true. The postal service workers could be very hard on mail. She had tried to ship her father a mirror the other day for his birthday. When she called him to as if he had gotten it he had told her that it was all cracked when it arrived. ’’Okay I will do that. There is very good reasons to do that though. Nobody wants to get broken items right.’’ she said with a smile.

"Yeah. If they mess up on too many more of my sculptures and such I'm going to have to resort to hiring a private delivery company or something. Can't let the postal service keep costing me, they don't even want to insure my packages anymore, heh. Thanks again for all the help." Blake was maybe a third of the way done with the sculptures, taking his time and not exactly looking forward to getting them all out of here and to the mail. Maybe if he could find a true dragon in the area it would be able to help.

Icey was starting to pack up the paintings. She was careful not to let them get bent or crushed. She was happy that they were durable. She was sure that there were plenty of private delivery places around. They were more then likely super expensive though. Though if you lost a lot of money due to poor service it may just pay for itself in time.’’They can be pretty rough with things. I guess since it is not theirs they do not really care what happens to it.’’ she said as she was getting the first box ready to pack.

"Yeah, that and they have so much of the stuff sometimes it's hard to keep everything perfectly safe. Some people are just lucky that their box, if it happens to be the one that gets crushed or damaged, didn't hold anything breakable." She was doing pretty good work. Blake had only five or six figurines packed up so far and she was already packing things when she just recently arrived. "Hey, in about an hour, feel like taking a lunch break?" And hopefully soon after a lunch break they'd be finished with the packing and things would be ready to get shipped out.

Icey could be a fast worker when it came to certain things . Other things fowever she was not all that fast at.That was the way that she had always been though.She could see how it could be hard to get everything safe and sound. She smiled as she contued to get the box ready to be shipped out.
'' I would say that it could be kind of hard to get everything there safe and sound.'' She said with a smile.When he asked about the lunch break she gave a slight smile. She really did not eat all that much dureing the day. That was one of her worse habits really. She did not think about it for the most part .''If you want to we can.'' She said with a smile. Hopefully they would be close to being done with the packing by the time that they were done with lunch they would at least be close to being done.

Blake smiled, finishing up another box and looking at what she had left. And everything being packed so well, maybe he could get some help with the sculptures too. As much as Blake hated to admit it he had a nasty habit of breaking at least one item when he was handling larger orders. Normally it was just a little thing, or a sample sculpture, but he still couldn't get everything out perfectly. Maybe this time would be different.
