Big artsy thanks to everyone who participated in this month’s Art Association and HUGE thanks to artist Emily Jeffords for providing such an interesting and inspiring catalyst and art prize!
Alexandra’s board was amazing.. she even pinned some of her own artwork, she obviously loves that palette as much as Emily does! Be sure to check out Alexandra’s AA board on Pinterest and her website to see more of her own pretty awesome artwork!
Be sure to stay tuned in March for another fun & inspiring Art Association! You are going to love March’s art catalyst and prize. Pinky promise.
We had such a fabulous response to last month’sArt Association that Erin of artsocial, my AA partner and I immediately started choosing artists and planning for the next few rounds. I know everyone loved Christina Baker’s work and pinned like nobody’s business to win that lovely little painting! ( PS– Christina’s work will be available in our first exhibition & sale, which begins tomorrow! ) I think you’re going to love this month’s catalyst & prize just as much! My own pinboard was incredibly fun & inspiring to put together– I didn’t want to stop pinning, but somebody has to write this here blog.
