Green, Green, Green Let’s hear it for SPRING!

This weeks selections are brought to you by Lisa Nelson, Dawn Thompson, and Windi Rosson.

Dancing Poppies by Lisa Nelson
Abstract Pod Bowl by Dawn Thompson
Hanging Dragonfly ACEO Print by Windi Rosson

Don’t forget to enter your green art in this month’s One Word Concept Show “Green” Unlike our traditional EBSQ exhibits which are very structured, the point of EBSQ “one word concepts” is to present you a word and leave it totally open to your interpretation. Take your word anywhere you like. Just make sure your finished work relates in some obvious way to this month’s word.

Team EBSQ-Etsy Featured Friday: Carmen Trueheart

by krisjean

This weeks Featured Friday store is home to the art of Carmen Trueheart

Mandala Pendant in Fine Silver by Carmen Trueheart

Carmen creates one of a kind fine silver adornments. She uses a special clay that is fused with fine silver powder. It is then baked in a kiln leaving her with pure fine silver creations. This allows her to be very creative with textures and shapes, and brings a true uniqueness to each piece.

In her own words: ” I have chosen Precious Metal Clay to experiment with new designs. I have found that the trial and error changes working with PMC to be very challenging!

And too, there is always something to learn, a skill to perfect, and a result to the process that creates a memory.

I can create an expression out of a thing, or series of things. This pleases me, and hopefully pleases others too.”

You can see more of her work on EBSQ or her Etsy store.

Team EBSQ-Etsy Featured Friday: Aimee Marie Wheaton

by krisjean

This week’s Featured Friday store is home to the art of Aimee Marie Wheaton.

Aimee’s art is based in mixed media. Her work is riddled with happiness and positivity. This is done with either a positive message actually incorporated in to the piece or with a bright and colorful palette. Her background as a graphic designer is embedded in the dynamic compositions, while the visual artist in her supplies the dreamy nature her artwork showcases.

Her EBSQ bio describes herself as “…A whimsical and colorful artist who combines traditional aspects of art with several different mediums such as watercolors, pencils, collages, wax, ink, paints, paper, buttons, and whatever else strikes her fancy.”
