If you’ve been to our house you know that Art and I have a rather,
er… , eclectic art collection. We tend to buy one or two
pieces every year at various art and craft shows. We try
not buy at the shows that Art
is working — that way we don’t just spend whatever we make
at the shows. We do shop when we go to check out shows that
Art is interested in — not sure about the logic in this!
Below are links to the various artists whose work we’ve collected:
2003
What a Beautiful Garden
Graham Davidson
– 3D Collage (Fredrick Festival of the Arts)
We must have looked at everything in Graham’s booth 2-3 times.
They were all hilarious! Whe we left her booth, Art looked
at me and said — “Which one?” We went back and
spent another ten minutes looking before we could choose.
2002
The Dream Tarot
Marvin
Hill – Block Prints (Northern Virginia Fine Arts Festival)
There’s no pictures of the one we have, but check out the “New
Moon Pool” and “As
Above So Below.”
The
Judgment of Paris
Grant Silverstein – Etchings
(Northern Virginia Fine Arts Festival)
He doesn’t seem to have a website, so here’s a picture of the
piece! For the mythologically impaired, it represents the
story
from Greek mythology when Paris had to choose which goddess
was the most beautiful.
