10am to 5pm on the Saturdays, Noon to 5pm on the Sundays
New work large & small!
I am doing something a little different this year. In addition to larger encaustic, cold wax and mixed media works – I have an abundance of new, smaller framed pieces priced for holiday giving ($75-150.) I also have a numbered, limited edition of 10 giclee prints each of three favorite images, including “Durham Bull with the Pretty Eyes.” They are beautifully printed on cotton ragstock, fully archival and ready for framing in standard 16×20 frames.
