I have spent the early portions of the year working in the studio doing my annual cleaning/arranging and, this year, PURGING! I was prompted to do so by the creation of this event coming up on March 21st, 2020 in Lafayette. “Create space – Earn cash” how could I not be excited! Instead of moving items I rarely use from one spot to another I will actually move them OUT of the studio! It feels so spacious now!!
I have a LARGE collection of arts, craft and vintage items I’ll be bringing to the event, in addition to all the other artists participating! If you are an artist, crafter, Scout leader, need supplies for classes for adults and children or are just a bargain shopper you should plan to attend! I don’t want to clog this post with too many images but below is a small collection of images/items that I’ll be bring to the event:
I hope that is enough to tempt you into shopping! Mark it on your calendar NOW so you don’t miss out. 😉
Special pricing on these beautiful wall sculptures and metal art pieces. I really hate to part with some of these – a few are even hanging in my living room. BUT, moving them would be hard work too so you get to take advantage with these prices at are 75% off!! There are over a dozen beautiful pieces show on the sale page of my website – here are a few samples!
Was $795, now 195!

Yes, last post I was exhaling and catching my breath but that didn’t last long! Life is full of funny, unpredictable surprises and one that snuck up on me recently is that we are going to sell our home of 32 years and move. And that house also includes the current location of my studio and primary storage space for the art I’ve created. YIKES! So in addition to the cleaning of cabinets, pantries, closets and attic from a 32-year accumulation of “treasures” I also need to reduce my art supplies and artistic creations by at least 50%. Oh. My. Goodness! BUT, lucky for you, MY pain is YOUR gain!
These art pieces need a fabulous home (like yours!) to live in and to make the experience of adopting them even more enjoyable you can save on your purchases like never before and (as you can tell by the 32 year frequency of our moves) this will most likely be your only chance EVER for these kinds of savings!
I’m going to start these once-in-a-lifetime savings with a two day, online only, early bird special. I know that many of my collectors don’t live closely enough to just drive out and select their pieces in person so by doing it online I can at least level the playing field for the start of the sale. Details on how the online sale will be conducted will be posted next Wednesday and the sale starts first thing Thursday morning, June 20th! The online sale will run until midnight on Friday, June 21st. That weekend, starting at 10 a.m. on Saturday, June 22nd the “live” sale begins here at my studio.
Art that is currently being shown in galleries is excluded, otherwise any piece listed with a price on my website is included in this sale! (I will be updating the site over the next few days to make sure everything is accurate.) Since orders of new digital/photographic artwork not currently in print and commissioned works don’t help reduce the inventory they are not on sale.
I’d love to share with you where we are moving but I haven’t a clue at this point, other than the fact that it won’t be more than an hour away from our current home – our roots are in too deep for a major move just yet. 🙂 I have made sure to negotiate a much larger studio space and perhaps, when we are settled, even adopting a dog after being without one for almost 10 years. I’m looking forward to both of those things, and enjoy the feeling of being “lighter” as I purge my way through each room. The aches and pains, meh, not enjoying them quite as much…but that’s part of the experience. Little did I know when I chose the word “Explore” for 2013 that this is what I would get into. What an adventure!
Be sure to check back next week for more details about the sale – I don’t want you to miss it!
Okay, I have to admit I was inspired by all the Black Friday sales that are everywhere at the moment. Why not have one myself?! But the more I thought about it I believe it’s more like an art adoption program. Just like retired greyhounds, they’ve been around the circuit a time or two but they’ve got lots of good years left to be loved & appreciated. Won’t you consider giving them a home? You can view this selection of over 40 framed & ready-to-hang pieces of art on my website. There is a link on the home page as well as the portfolio page or just click HERE. Be sure to tell your friends & family to check out the sale too! It ends November 30th – don’t miss it!!
