SALE! 2015

STUDIO RENOVATION SALE!

Sold. Thank you Tina!

Armes Burning Bowl.. means 'prophetess' in Welsh. She is 4 1/2" w x 4 1/2 " deep x 9" high. Stained glass basin-sculpted with stoneware clay that has been kiln fired. Great to use for ceremony or to burn candle or incense. Normally priced at $68-Sale Price is $45.00

I have decided to start the new year of 2015 with a big sale. Some of you may know, I lost my beautiful son, Charlie, last fall and as a result, my creativity has all but disappeared. I think the key to healing is to stay busy so I cleaned out my studio and even added more space by renovating my garage. By doing this, I am hoping that I will find my muse in my new and pleasant 'atelier.' (French for studio) Featured in the sale will be either work that I previously kept in my home and called 'my own', items that were on Etsy or slow moving artwork that I've had around a long time. Also featured are items that I found during renovation. Some are very old and I'll have to call them, vintage Cheryl Dolby.

Now is the time to take advantage of the very low prices I have placed on each item, and it is the time for me to begin anew with new series and new one of a kind pieces that I hope to start soon! Of course the sale pieces are all original. I can ship immediately and will be glad to ship to another address and gift wrap. They all come with one of my stories (except the garlic keepers) I take Paypal or personal check. If you see anything you want, please e-mail me and we can go from there. Hope you have fun shopping. Double Click for Close-ups. Here we go!

Goddess "Oceana" Standing Sculpture. She is 24" high x 12" wide x 12" deep. I used some wonderfully old shells and an antique shell pendant. She is hand sculpted and kiln fired and quite frankly...heavy. I would imagine someone from Roanoke might be interested in taking her home as the shipping will probably be well over $100 to states closeby and if you are in Ca..probably closer to $150-200. Of course, with the low price I am offering her, you may just want to give yourself that gift you have been waiting for. She was priced at $350.(galleries price similar ones I have created for between $400-$550) Sale Price: $235. A really good deal for someone!

As for going in a new direction, I'm anxiously waiting to see which way you go. Your work is awesome, and the potential for more awesome-ness is exciting! In the meantime, I'd like to purchase "Earthwalker". Please contact me by e-mail at hermitquilter@comcast.net. Looking forward to hearing from you. Shalom.
