Melrose Bay Invitational

Nuts!

This is the third and final piece I created for the Melrose Bay Invitational. Overall dimensions including mat and frame = 12 inches x 12 inches. Image measures 7 inches x 6 inches. First and foremost, the title refers to the coconuts. But, I must admit all that detail was making me a little crazy!

Nuts! and the following two pieces will be on display at Melrose Bay Art Gallery from 7 November - 20 December 2009. Please join us for a reception on Sunday, 8 November, from 1-5 pm.

What A Tangled Web We Weave II

What A Tangled Web We Weave sold before it left the easel! And, since I liked it so much, I decided to do a second version. While overall dimensions including mat and frame also = 12 inches x 12 inches, What A Tangled Web We Weave II measures 7 inches x 6.5 inches. Lots of subtle differences.

Zander

The second of the small works for the upcoming Melrose Bay Invitational. Overall dimensions including mat and frame = 12 inches x 12 inches. Image area measures 7 inches x 6.5 inches. Good things do come in small packages... Smaller portraits are more affordable and make wonderful gifts!

What A Tangled Web We Weave

The first of the small works I created for the Melrose Bay Invitational. Overall dimensions including mat and frame = 12 inches x 12 inches. Image itself measures 7 inches x 6 inches. Rather enjoying working small!
