Now This is Folk Art!!!

Introducing a breath of fresh air...Jen Hardwick,  Jen is a Seattle-based artist that specializes in art assemblage pieces using a combination of new and recycled materials. Her work is just so fresh and creative. This is the kind of artist that I want to be when I grow up (...lol I am probably older than her.) And of course, Jen is self-taught. Amazing....

Primitive Decor Abounds!

Here is what I am working on currently in the studio. Not just the paintings but, I have an idea for creating some hangers for the paintings. This is the one I did yesterday but, it seems a little flimsy.
I got the idea from my friend and artist Julie-Ann Bowden. If you have been following me for a while you know that I love Julie's work. I am saving to buy a commission from her. I am going to try something different today with the hangers. However, I am have a hard time getting anything done with all the end of the year activities with the kids.  I can't wait to have more time to work.

I did finally finish my first halloween piece of the season that I talked about in my last blog post. It is for sale on Ebay now ending on June 14th at 10:30 am Est.  I am still very excited to get things going for Halloween but, I am also having to roll some items out for Christmas as I will be advertising in the Country Sampler December issue.





This piece I think looks a little better with the hanger. Both the pieces are for sale at my Etsy Shop. Please check it out for better images.
Love to you all,
Kori
