This piece was done for Dixie. She had installed shutters in the pass through between her kitchen and living room. The panel was designed as a "shutter topper". I think it turned out really well, and complements her decor beautifully.
The next two suncatchers were made for Cindy. She gave them as gifts to friends and family. I liked the Calla Lily pattern so much, I modified it to use as a piece in my art shows. (Maybe I'll put a photo of that up one of these days!)
The Lady Bug has also made it into the art show offerings . . . it has been pretty popular and is frequently purchased as a gift.
Rusty commissioned me to do a House Number panel to hang on the porch of her home. (Last I heard, though, it hasn't made it out of her living room!! She has it displayed on an easel, and says it is too pretty to hang outside just now!!)
When I delivered the panel to Rusty, Katherine saw it and commissioned me to do a Magnolia panel for her, too. She didn't want the house number, but was intending to hang it beside her front door. I thought "Welcome" would work for this application.
I used a foil overlay for the lettering. I think this worked out splendidly! I will definitely use that technique again. You can put in plenty of detail without worrying about cut lines.
Finally, I was able to finish the "River Center" logo which was commissioned months ago by Enoch Morris, the Executive Director of the River Center for the Performing Arts in Columbus, GA. You should check out their website: http://www.rivercenter.org/ It is a happening place. They host extremely professional productions and have a lovely, elegant facility. I will be exhibiting there at WinterFest 2007 from November 30th through December 2nd. WinterFest 2007 is an Art and Fine Craft Show that will be held in conjunction with the concerts and events focused around the Christmas celebration. It is an event not to be missed!
That's all for now! Stay tuned for more updates . . .
