So, last week I promised to show you ART TO GO Series 2. I am very excited about this line, and when I had them at my show this past weekend, they got great reviews!
ART TO GO Series 2 is all about having a miniature, abstract painting on sterling (and maybe eventually on gold as well), which you can wear on the go. One-of-a-kind pieces again, so that no two will ever be the same.
I started out with 2 pieces of leftover sheet sterling, and experimented to see if the enamels would behave the way that I wanted, and if I would be able to achieve what I had in mind. Hence, they are strangely shaped, which is artsy and I think effective. However, in the effort of keeping the prices low, I have, for the time being, opted to go with more traditional square and rectangular pieces, more similar to canvases. The labour on creating oddly shaped pieces would triple, and therefore the price would increase significantly. Having said that, if someone would like a custom piece, I am more than happy to oblige, and will create oddly shaped pieces for those customers.
Piece #1 is about half an inch wide and with the bail included the height is 2.25 inches.
Piece #2 is about half an inch wide and with the bail included the height is a little more than 1.75 inches.
Pieces 3 through 8 (above) are 2.5 cm x 3 cm, not including the bail height.
Pieces 9 through 17 (above) are all 2.5 cm x 2.5 cm, again, not including the bail height.
I love the way some of these have great texture with the enamel, and the way it has swirled and mixed. They'll be added to my Artfire studio soon. Please let me know what you think of them, I'd love your feedback!
