Purchase Information

We've all seen them:  paintings that look like they were made by a gorilla that sell for record amounts of money in the art world.  After a particularly frustrating day (and seeing some of those astronomical purchase prices via a fellow artist's Facebook post), I temporarily regressed back to the simpler days of childhood.  Using leftover paint on my palette and my trusty middle finger, I created this seascape fingerpainting.  Enjoy.

Set of 6 ORIGINAL Sushi Miniature Paintings/ACEOs/Note Cards

Set of 6 Acrylic Paintings

Bristol 400 with Linen Texture (acid and lignin-free)

Available

Hello there!  I am currently recuperating from a tonsillectomy, so my artistic juices aren't flowing as mush as the apple juice I am forced to drink.  In my "absence" from the real world, I have put together a set of miniature paintings (ACEOs) of various types of sushi. These are ORIGINAL paintings (3.5 x 2.5) that can be framed or used as note cards and/or unique gifts for sushi-loving friends or family members. 

Each painting comes in a protective acetate sleeve along with a die-cut frame card and envelope. The sushi consists of the following:  California roll with chopsticks, fried egg nigiri, octopus nigiri, salmon nigiri, salmon roe, and shrimp nigiri.  Just think, these will never spoil!

I plan to offer other miniature painting/note card sets in the near future.  If you have any suggestions for subject matter, I am listening!

Here's another little charmer.  This pumpkin has, miraculously, survived on my desk for the past year.  It's time on this planet is limited, though.  Before saying "goodbye" and adding it to the compost bin, I chose to immortalize my little bulbous friend.  You made me smile!

It may be near 100 degrees in central Texas, but I've already begun my autumn decorating.  You can take the girl out of New England, but you can't take New England out of the girl!  

Pumpkins should arrive in a few weeks, but why wait?  This little charmer won't get mushy!
