1. Vintage Sketch Series

Hi Friends!

I have added something new to the shop! I call it my
vintage sketch series.


After attending a Leonardo da Vinci exhibit, I was so inspired by the beautiful sepia sketches on aged paper so I set out to find the perfect "handmade" paper to print my raw sketches on. Every artist struggles with working and refining a piece until it's almost overdone. I love the movement and feeling of sketch studies because they are raw and full of emotion.

This beautiful handmade paper has deckled edges and seeds and fibers through it. It is perfectly "imperfect" so it may not be perfectly squared which adds to it's beauty. I have shown one framed in a vintage "floating" frame for reference only. Frame not included. Copyright will not appear on print.

- Art print created from a hand drawn original sketch
- Printed on 8.5 x 11" aged handmade seed paper
- Ships flat packaged in a bend resistant mailer and a cellophane sleeve
- Ships within 3-5 days of payment
- Printed locally in the USA


I truly enjoyed creating these and I hope you enjoy them as well. Click on the photos to go to each print in my shop.



Thank you for being a part of our wonderful community. I am so grateful for each and every one of you!

Phyllis

2. The Electronic Time-Capsule

I found a CD full old works, unfinished stories and forgotten pictures unintentionally shoved in the back of my memory bank and a box full archives. Every time-capsule like folder filled with unorganized chaos made me smile. I found so many awesome things

plenty of my old sketches and scanned paintings…

a picture of the signed poster I got from an old friend.

I even found a couple of old sonnets I wrote for a writing class …

Sonnet 2

I’m stuck at home with this to write

While they are out enjoying life

I’ve put it off so many nights

Now I am here with so much strife

I rip I roar but whine at most

I wish this quick so I could go

To eat and drink enjoy a toast

Its almost done I wish it so!

Third train to write but what about?

I’m losing time its almost up

Lets make it quick then dance and shout

C’mon let’s go bring me a cup!

So this is it! I’m really done!

I Gotta go and have some fun!

(uhm soo glad I stuck with drawing….)
