  • Grateful. For Saturdays + These Folks.

    Aren’t Saturdays just the best days of the week?  Sleeping in, breakfasting out, just doing whatever you like, no worries kind of day!  I’m feeling especially grateful this Saturday and wanted to publicly thank a few artsy folks who were kind enough to give the City Mouse | Country Mouse online show a little web love this week!

    In no particular order, a big merci beaucoup to…

    Inward Facing Girl | The IFG herself shared some CM|CM love on Twitter.. thanks Melanie!

    Beautiful Hello | Emily published a beautiful post about CM|CM on her blog!

    Curate 1k | Norah knows an art bargain when she sees it!  Thanks for the post & including a CM|CM piece in this week’s collection!

    The Artful Desperado | Gab included a CM|CM piece in an awesome little spring hued round-up!

    Help spread the word by Facebooking, Tweeting, and/or blog posting about CM|CM and get a little shout-out with a link to your site next week!  Just shoot me an email to let me know you’ve done it at artsyforager(at)att.net.

    CMCM will be up in found through March 28th.  If you haven’t seen it yet, please click over to found and check it out!  Beautiful little small originals, perfect for gift giving!

  • Guest Foraging: Artsy Forager on curate 1k!

    Like most art lovers, I’m a collector on a budget.  Not quite a “ramen noodles every night” budget, but I would gladly eat peanut butter sandwiches all the time if it meant owning work by my favorite artists.   So when Norah Guignon of curate 1k asked me to guest curate for her this week, I jumped at the chance!  Each week on her blog, Norah or her guest curator rounds up a collection of artwork that together totals less than $1,000.  Seriously affordable, accessible and beautiful work!  For my week, I curated a little “Sand & Sea” collection, as hubby and I have been landlocked here in Idaho for almost 9 months and are seriously missing being on the Coast.

    Here’s a little taste, but be sure to head over to curate 1k to see it all!  Each day a new piece debuts, so make sure you check back for the rest of the week!
