Pictures from ETA #13 Show

Thanks to this super fan for sending me pictures of their art purchasing experience at Nahcotta.  I love it when people send me pictures.  Since I'm not close enough to see the set up in person (I reside in Colorado now), I live through these photos.

Thanks Amy!

Don't they look so cute on the wall all lined up so neat and pretty?

They're selling fast!

Amy is one happy art loving customer!

Thank you so much for sending me the pictures and for all the love!

xoxoxoxoxoxox!

My next show at the Nahcotta Enormous Tiny Art Show Spring 2013 in Portsmouth NH

In my haste to mail off my new pieces for the next Nahcotta show, I forgot to take pictures of the pieces I made! Silly me. I did scan them but I'm not so happy with how those came out.   SO, I have the first piece from this series (it's going to a private collector) so I can at least show you that one and an extra one I have still.  I sent 16 pieces to Nahcotta for the Enormous Tiny Art Show coming up next week! All of the pieces are different colors but with the same symbol/message:

'Speak Love'

Each original piece is appx 2.3 x 3.5 inches, watercolor and india ink, mounted on a bamboo board, ready to hang.

As you can see, I need a hand model.  Any volunteers?

I just loooove the bamboo boards.  I searched and searched until I found these ones.  They are handmade in Portland. Aren't they beautiful?

Each piece is titled, numbered and signed

They are a simple, small, visual message and reminder to speak love to those around us.  So often we get wrapped up in the annoyances and negative things that are so easy to point out all around us.  It's nice to have a gentle reminder to think and speak love to and about the people/things in our lives.  Even if they can't hear us, even if we don't know them, even if it's just the talk that is going on in our heads.  Speak Love.

Can you remember a time someone said something kind or loving to you?  did or does it still effect you in some way today?

Speaking loving words towards others can change the world.  As important as that is, I think it's even more important to speak love to ourselves.  That's right, to yourself.  How many times do we beat up on ourselves mentally, verbally or in action?  These little pieces of art are reminders to speak loving words to yourself too!

The show runs February 1-25th 2013. Opening night is Feb 1 st 5pm-8pm.

This is my favorite show and at my favorite gallery!  If you are even remotely close to Portsmouth, NH at all- it's worth the drive, every time.

If you can't make it you can see/shop virtually here.

Thank you, thank you, thank you, for supporting the arts!

Also-You may remember similar work I have done for the art-o-mat machines.  I wanted to continue that series on a more mature platform, the bamboo boards and curating make for the upgraded pieces you see in this show.

New art for Nahcotta

I've shipped off a big box of new work to Nahcotta for the Enormous Tiny Art Show starting September 7th 2012 through October 1st 2012.  This is my all time favorite art gallery and most favorite show yet. Here are the new cuties:

If you see a piece you'd like to buy and you can not make it to the show in Portsmouth, NH or if you want to make sure you get the piece you like before someone else does, then you can purchase it right here.

I will have prints available for sale here.

Sneak peek of my work for Nahcotta's 'Enormous Tiny Art' Show this Fall

Here's a sneek peek of what I've been working on for Nahcotta's Enormous Tiny Art Showhappening this Fall in Portsmouth NH.  I wasn't planning on getting so detailed in these drawings, but that's how they are turning out. super detailed.  I'm only drawing ones that charge me emotionally.

I get to thinking about how these animals have their own little lives and families.  I wonder what they're like? Do they get along? Do they see each other a lot or only on 'special' occasions?

An interested meerkat.

 I love the bangs on this highland cow.

Any thoughts?
