Artists Market in Ithaca

Last Friday was the Ithaca Artists Market, held at the Farmers Market on the inlet.  Over 50 artists shows their work and the attendance seemed very good.  My art tiles were a big hit as people envisioned them for hot plates, coasters, trays, mosaics, and back splashes in the kitchen and bath.  Lots of possibilities.

The rest of the display here includes framed and unframed photo montages on paper and canvas.

On Saturday, my gardens were part of the Pond Tour in this area sponsored by Totalily in Spencer, NY. Pond enthusiasts wandered through the gardens for 4 hours and also bought some of the artwork on display as shown in the last picture below.

Busy weekend, for sure!

Tiles/Trivets/Back Splash

I have been experimenting with several designs to be printed on ceramic tiles by a local artisan.  Several of another batch of tiles are in the gift shop at the Cornell Plantations visitor center.  I will have many tiles with me at the Ithaca Artist Market on July 29th at the Ithaca Farmers' Market.

The tiles are heat resistant, satin in finish, and can be used under hot items or hung on the wall.  An excellent use of them would be for a decorative backsplash interspersed with white tiles. The tiles come in 4-6-8 inch squares.  Please contact me if this is of interest to you.
