that's right i am having an ARTY! an art party. an arty! and you are invited! |
what's the occasion, you ask? |
my bravery and erinsartandgardens on etsy is open for business! insert an explosion of confetti here. that's erinsartandgardens (one word...no spaces) yes, i finally, finally opened my etsy store, and i would just love it, love it if you would pop on over and check it out. i even installed a link to it on my sidebar (fancy, i know). in honor of my opening and since this is an "arty" i am having my very first giveaway! i am giving away to one random winner, this original piece of art called "grey jars I" seen above 12"x12" square canvas original acrylic painting heavily textured in shades of greys and whites signed by me( of course) on back if you would like a chance at winning this painting and i sure hope you do.... i think you know the drill... "follow" me (for one chance or let me know that you already follow) or blog about this giveaway (for chance 2) or visit my etsy store and come back here and tell me what you think (for chance 3) this arty will go on for 3 weeks until november 22nd. drinking wine during the arty is highly recommended, as i heard on the news, there will be a shortage of wine soon.....what? say it ain't so! good luck! erin p.s. thank you so much to all of you who have been such big supporters for me....you know who you are...your positive comments and e-mails blow me away......and i love you and could not have done this without you....i am overwhelmed and humbled by you very day. :0) p.p.s. i have tried very hard to offer up affordable art, on the smaller side, to make it easier for me to ship....until i get used to this new venture....larger paintings will come later. p.p.p.s. who knows where this venture will go? but i am so excited, nervous and giddy by the possibilities.... weeeeee..... arty down! |
I have been waiting for this for a long time! So excited for you. I love your art, and photography.ALL OF IT.
