CONGRATULATIONS ERICA!!!!

ERICA HAS DONE IT!!!!

MC and I are so, so proud of our Granddaughter, Erica!!!   She is so talented.  Our home is filled with her abstract work,  and this piece,  that she is featuring in her introduction to the world of ART and DESIGN!!!!
Some of you have seen this particular Christening Dress in our home.   It is from my Mom's family,  going back to the late 1800's!
I think she has a wonderful idea on how to use her talents....
Congratulations Erica......We know you will have a wonderful future in your new endeavor!

Memories shouldn't be stored away in a box or closet. The more you see them, the more you can remember! This piece is a Christening dress, that is over 100 years old. I carefully hand sewed it to the canvas, and preserved with paint and UV sealant and protectant. The dress BECOMES PART OF THE PAINTING, creating dimension, texture and depth.

(This particular example is a custom piece, one of a kind, not for sale. All pricing and shipping on this posting reflects estimate pricing for a similar piece in size and complexity. Pricing varies.)

I accept CUSTOM work. First, you choose your special item. Then you TRUST ME to make it into something beautiful (of course, after we have a conversation or two!). I can do all kinds of things!
• Christening gowns
• Wedding veils and garters
• Baby's coming home outfit
• Dance costumes (yes, even a tutu!)
• Sports jerseys and t-shirts (like t-ball uniforms!)
• Gloves
• Scarves and Handkerchiefs
• ALMOST ANYTHING fabric that has meaning, I can do!

PLEASE CONTACT me to discuss your special piece, the story, where you would like to showcase it, colors, sizing and for a custom quote. I know your piece is special and I want to make sure I know all about the story and your expectations.

Pricing starts at $175 (plus shipping/delivery), with approximately $75 per square foot after the first 1'x1'. Framing also available, otherwise, each piece comes as a finished canvas edge.

My ultimate goal is to do a wedding dress... If I had a place to hang it, I would do my own wedding dress! One day...

More examples to come. Commissioned works are in progress!

  8. Oh Patty, your love and admiration for Erica's new venture is so obvious. I know she will be fabulously successful--she is so talented. (Wonder where she inherited that trait? Great DNA!) Preserving these precious memories as art is so special. What a wonderful idea!
