Two Giveaways means Two Winners This Week!

#1 ~ We’re delighted to feature Paintings by Cathy Nichols, an Etsy shop that features beautiful, original art.

Meet Cathy Paintings by Cathy Nichols…

When I was younger, I thought that I would be an English Professor. Then I fell in love with a painting. I’d been in love before, but never with something so colorful, so obscure yet rife with promise. It was abstract, yet figurative. There was an animal shape rising up, suspended by a red, heart-shaped balloon against a dark, moody background. On the bottom was a faint, yet discernible trace of glitter. Glitter. This was a love-letter. And ever since reading it, I’ve been trying to write back.

I know that a painting is finished because it seems like the right thing has been spoken — something I wouldn’t mind sharing with my levitating glittery friend (or with you).

I am happy to announce that my prints have been featured under “Best Nature Art” from ETSY in Domino Magazine. Here is the link!

Hello Friend Print

7×7 inch print on 8.5×11 inch velvet fine art paper. Signed and titled in pencil beneath the image with a white border for easy framing. $28.00 retail value

#2 ~ We’re also delighted to feature Storytales, an Etsy shop that features unique custom jewelry and gift items.

Meet Susan of Storytales…

Hi, I’m Susan. I have had a heart for art ever since I can remember.I grew up in a small country side town in New England where my mom and I along with aunts, uncles, cousins and neighbors would gather almost daily in “the craft room” to make gifts for every person and purpose we could think of. That was well over forty years ago and that little “craft room” helped to sculpt some of the most passionate artists and art appreciators in the world. That’s my Storytale anyway. Many years have come and gone since then and somewhere along the way I forgot to feed my passion. So here I am setting out on a new journey – attending to the gifts that are within me. Now my mom lives with my husband and me in Florida where we spend most of our time in our “Little Craft room”. I hope you enjoy !
