Christmas is just about here! I've compiled a small gift guide for you, and I hope this offers some thoughtful last minute suggestions. The last day to order for holiday delivery is December 17th. I hope you have a great Christmas and New Year. Thank you for following along with my art journey, and see you in 2022!
Stocking Stuffers
Rubber stamps are my tiniest offering! The original designs are made by drawing and hand-carving the image, and I work with a production partner to create a top quality, laser engraved final product. You can find anything from animals to pop-culture references. I think this would be a great option for anyone in your life who is into crafting or stationery.
For the Dolly Parton Lover
I think it’s safe to say that we all have a Dolly Parton lover in our life. I did a few paintings of her last year and have a some fun offerings with the imagery, including the t-shirt and print pictured here.
Beautiful Reproductions
Giclee prints are a great approachable way to add artwork to your space. I like to have prints made after an original piece has sold, and I work with a few local print shops who make beautiful reproductions. The prints are archival and the capture the color and texture of the original pieces. I offer standard sizes that are easy to frame, and you can find a variety of subject matter.
Woodblock Prints
There is no doubt that buying original art as a gift can be a tricky endeavor. That being said, I feel like you can’t go wrong with an original print. In all of my years of making art, woodblock prints have received perhaps the most positive responses across all types of people. My theory is that it has something to do with the handmade aspect along with the more graphic, bold imagery of the medium. The vibe fits many different home decor styles.
Original Paintings
I love that paintings can transport us to different places, times, and memories. When you are buying an art gift for someone else, consider the feeling you’d like to convey. When you see the right piece of art, you will just know! Another idea is to start the search by considering the subject matter, like figures, landscapes, or still life.
