Thoughtful by smiling robyn


This is a small archival print made from an original series of paintings of individuals with their eyes closed. The intent of the series is to reverse the subject and viewer experience. In this case the subject (art) is purposefully not looking back at the viewer. Many many portraits are needed to create the effect so the project is still growing. However, the paintings make beautiful prints and so are being offered for sale. This image is 4 x 4.5 inches with a 1/2 inch border. It is printed on high quality fine art paper using archival inks. Signed and dated by the artist.

Spear-Headed Suffolk Latch by Lucy Sandys-Clarke


From the old Smithy in the Dales village of Dent, near Sedbergh in Cumbria, UK, Lucy produces hand-made pieces of bespoke ironwork using an open coke fire, and the tools and techniques employed by generations of blacksmiths. This fantastic traditional Suffolk latch set caught my eye, it comprises the handle with thumb-piece, latch-bar, keeper and staple. Available in a standard waxed finish for inside use or unwaxed (upon request) for home painting. Love it!

Glazed Donut by Kevin Inman Art


Glazed donut from 7-11. 6 x 6 inches, oil on archival canvas board. "When I was toiling for the man in cubicle land, I wanted to feel the sun on my face. I stepped out from under the fluorescents and I started painting the California good life. I wanted to embrace the beauty you can find in unexpected places. Where can you find beauty in the unexpected?"
