Mixed Media Prints!!!!

We have taken some of our original collages and turned them into affordable prints! They are larger than the originals and make a very dramatic set. These are all available in our webstore!

Our Store!!!!

Finally we have a store on-line! Ok…. it still needs a little work and we still have to upload all our goodies, but we will be able to offer our wares and products, and some of our favorite art supplies online… and accept your credit cards. This will hopefully make things a lot easier for you. Keep watching for updates and we hope you keep us in mind when doing your holiday shopping this year!

Moving and Shaking!

Our bags are really getting noticed! Even Maggie Houlihan, Mayor of Encinitas, has one! Nancy painted this awesome 92024 zip code bag and presented it to Maggie on Tuesday. The Mayor said it was the one that caught her eye! We were so thrilled! You too can get a custom 92024 bag, just call us today!

One Word. Renegade… OMG!

Okay, so I start off the weekend with really bad news actually 2 really bad things that would normally make me want to crawl under a rock. But the Renegade Fair in Los Angeles was on this weekend and I had the great good fortune to go! What a treat. I have to say I have never been so inspired. The crafters and artists were so nice and the quality of the work was outstanding. And the pricing really fair. Really! I am in the middle of a redecorating project in the house so I had an excuse to buy several things to hang. I had to control myself. It’s in San Fransisco next weekend. If you can… go! I can’t wait until next year.

As you could probably already tell….WE ARE IN LOVE WITH OUR NEW SCREEN PRINTING TECHNIQUE! Here is something we did in the studio recently. Isn’t it lovely. Wouldn’t you love to have this in your home. We will be selling these and other one of a kind screen prints at Del Mar’s upcoming Taste and Art Stroll in October.
