Local Artist, Gabriele Wardeiner & Gail Meyer

Artist Gabriele Wardiener and Gail Meyer have both been with ARTifacts since we opened 4 years ago.  We are blessed to have two such talented and devoted artists as part of our artist community.

Gabriele, a gifted artist, has art of all mediums and styles.  From oils, to pencil work – to mixed media pieces to repurposed greeting cards for all occassions.  It is easy to find something to take home with you in Gabriele’s booth.  You never lack for ideas or choice in this fantastic booth.

Gail Meyer, an extrodinairy popular Clarksville artist is well known for her pieces both of the downtown and the Roxy buildings – but of late, the surge of excitement (we felt up here anyway) with the umbrella series she has been working on.  Most are sold and on the walls of art lovers as I am typing this – but there are a couple still available, along with other of her beautiful works of art.

See you downtown for shopping
local this holiday season!

More hot stuff

Signage is a favorite these days – signs that help us communicate better, or signage that has something to say.

Libby’s Nook and Cranny has made several of these magnet/chalkboard frames – fantastic for all kinds of things – grocery list and coupons held on with magnets. 

 

Made by Relative Collections, this shopping list has a burlap background.  Just a dry erase marker makes this the perfect for your grocery list.

 

 

 

 

 

This is a wonderful goodie handmade by Gabriele Wardiener.  Do you read your books on a kindle?  Then Gabriele has created this wonderful case from vintage fabric to keep your kindle safe.

 

 

 

 

 

 

This next goodie is also made by Gabriele Wardiener – it is an ostrich egg that has been hand painted.  It has the different season painted all the way around.  Very special piece!

 

 

 

 

Another new arrival from Belle’s Finale – love this ice cream parlor table and chairs – and a sweet *pun not intended* deal!

See you downtown!!

Still warm?

OK – I am on a roll with the “hot stuff” photos – what do you think about THIS one?

Found this one on eBay!  FUNNY!

 

But anyway, I promised more photos of new stuff today, so here they are!

 

 

 

 

 

Gabriele brought in this really special abstract piece she put together.  I love it – but as with most art that I try to photograph for the website/blog  - I rarely do them justice.  This artwork is better viewed in person.

Reisa Peters is one of our wonderful artists.  Focusing mostly on pastel, she has an amazing gift!  She has treated us all with making greeting cards out of her most popular pieces.  Several that have sold and won’t ever be available but as prints.  So she created these oversized greeting cards – PERFECT!  You don’t even have to mail them – get them for yourself, as mini art for your walls.  OR mail them to your favorite people. (I got one to mail to one of my favorite people in England.  It will remind her of a favorite book of both of ours.  So excited about these cards!)

 

 

 

Rebecca Sower has been busy at work making all kinds of new goodies for her booth here at ARTifacts.  I am so excited to share some of them with you – but you better hurry!  She had a bunch of these fun fabric flowers when she brought them in less than a week ago – and already down to these last few.

Relative Collections has been having fun making all kinds of vintage looking signage.  Here is the lastest. 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

What else is new?  Well, come back in the morning for a few more photos to piqué your interest!

See you downtown!

New Arrivals!

So, I have to admit I have been so worn out by blogging with the 15/50/15 sale that I haven’t been on the ball with new posts as I should be.  My apologies!  I want to start with the reminder of the Mixed Media class we will have next week. 

I have really enjoyed Kimberly’s classes, and continue to be able to use all the techniques she is teaching us in class for all kinds of other projects.  AND my husband is enjoying having unique art pieces in the house – I can create art that I am proud enough of to display!  THIS is no small miracle!

To learn more about this class – check out the Special Events & Classes link on our blog.

Ok – now on to new arrivals at the shop!

FIrst, while some of these items have been in the shop for over a week – they are still new arrivals – those of you who shop with us once a week will just have to bare with us and enjoy this refresher.  <grin>

Oh Baby always have fun new pieces that we can count on being unique and wonderfully special.  All the items I have purchased from Oh Baby my friends always comment that they love that piece!  I love this new chair and trunk!  And while I didn’t capture the lamp as well as I could have – she has these amazing brass, ceramic and glass lamps also.  One is the light blue you see here – the other is a light blush color.

All kinds of new goodies in Busy Bees!  Including those 2 amazing Norman Rockwell presidential couple prints. 

Appealing Designs has been busy at work with this piece.  It is 3 pendants in one!  She has created a latch on this piece so you can change out the cabochon (fancy word for round rock!) for a different one.

I have always enjoy Gabriele Wardeiner’s abstract art.  But this particular set I LOVE!  The colors (not conveyed very well in this photo) are wonderfully soothing!

Gail Meyer has been busy at work adding several new pieces to her booth.  I love the series with the fruit on the vine – this photo shows the limes, but she also pears and oranges to go with this set.  And for those of you who follow Paige’s blog at Hodgepodge-Home know that decorating in 3’s is always a must!  Gail also added several ocean/side images.  Boats, lighthouses and more.  Makes me ready for summer!

Guy Bozard has created another wood masterpiece.  This table is just beautiful – and add to it that it is useful in some many ways, you can’t beat it!

The breeze that the spring time brings makes me want to play with scarves in the fields, watching the light weight fabric flowing in the wind.  These amazing scarves by Eunice Kern can provide that child like fun for you anytime with the scarf to match your spring collection.

Quack…..’nuf said.

 

There you have it!  A few new arrivals.  Come downtown today to see what else we have in-store for you!

See you downtown!
