My Very First Foot Long Art Sale Begins October 16, 2020!

I am thrilled to be hosting (online) my 1st Annual Foot Long Art Sale, located right here on this website! The sale begins at 12 pm on Friday, October 16 and ends at midnight on Monday, November 30. I’m offering some 12x12” “oldies but goodies”. There may be a few 10x10s scattered in with the others. Most of these pieces are already housed in beautiful matte black wood frames, the kind that are “front-loading” with no glass. Encaustic pieces don’t require glass for framing! Some of these pieces are not framed (nevertheless, wired and ready to hang) but I have a few extra frames around that I can offer to you when you purchase your piece. There will be NO CHARGE for my labor to frame your piece! Well, what I REALLY mean is no charge from David, my husband and fellow framer, art wrapper and general “roadie”. Also known as “The Wrapper” by my fellow art colleagues!

I must part with all of these pieces in order to make room for some new pieces that I’m producing. Yes, the studio has been “buzzing”! Well, what ELSE is there to do? We don’t go out to eat anymore, don’t travel anymore (just day trips!), and can’t hook up with family and friends. So, I’m mucking around in my studio, making a mess and bouncing in all different directions. I’m experimenting with oil and cold wax on Arches oil paper (go to Galleries on this website to check these out), creating more encaustic pieces on panel, assembling collages…you name it, I’m trying it! For me, the upcoming election drama and this virus-thing are causing me to be a bit “non-focused”. But I digress.

I’m excited to offer these pieces to the public, directly from me, at more than 50% off of retail prices. The pricing ranges from $75-$149. FOR ORIGINAL ART!! Because I know that some of you have been “orbiting” around some of these pieces for a while now. HERE’S YOUR CHANCE TO HAVE ONE (or two, or three)! I’m currently offering nineteen pieces for sale, but I may add to this stock as the sale progresses. Affordable shipping WILL be available.

I am so grateful to have an art studio to go to, art supplies to work with, and art friends, colleagues and “homies” to chat with–even if it’s all “virtual”. This sure does add to my monthly wine bill! But, sigh, all well worth it!

The sale goes live on October 16, 12:00 Pacific Standard Time (that’s 3 pm for you “East-Coasters”). Even if you don’t wish to purchase anything at the moment, I DO welcome your feedback and comments!
