Big Kahuna Summer Sale...

Or The Help Me Clean Out My Studio Sale. Thanks everyone who submitted names for the big cleaning sale! The Big Kahuna stuck, and the sale is on! So, 18 paintings are posted in the sale right now, and more will be added tonight and tomorrow. These are DEEP DISCOUNTS! Not because I don't love these paintings, I do. I just would so like them to find a home.

In the process, I will find more space for new work which I need to do! My Etsy shop This Little Pigment will be offering less original art in the future. You will still find prints there and my pendants, of course. I will be cultivating my collection and offering original art at my domain Andie Freeman Art. You will find my pendants at both the Etsy shop and ThisLittlePigment.com. You can learn more about me and my process at this blog and keep in touch with me at my Facebook page. Got that? Good. I hope to see you a lot more.

So, back to the sale... it will be on until Saturday 6/23. I will feature a few different pieces on my Facebook page and my blog throughout the week. Please tell any art lovers you know and help me find lovely homes for these fabu paintings!!!

Signs for the Church

 

The spring has been wonderful for me, and I hope for you as well! I have spent a lot of time recently on a large project for my church. I created with the director of family ministries a complete identity system for the children's ministries, and student ministries. To implement this system, I have been painting the logos on signage for the new Discipleship Center. What a blessing! So, I kept thinking I would show photos of this in process, but I just got so caught up in the painting, that I never really took time to take good pictures until now. This is a photo of the main entryway with a graphic tree mural on the wall and a directional sign with the new logo system. The desk will painted next week in a faux wood grain similar to the signage. Also, a really large family ministries sign is finished and will hang from the ceiling when the mural is really finished (it's about 90% in this photo.) 

Better view from over the big desk.

The directional sign has the system for the different classes for the children's ministries.

 

 

 

This is a sign on the first floor to direct to the student ministries rooms upstairs.

The large sign for The Point (student ministries) for the lounge upstairs.

So, what's next? Well, next week the mural will be finished and the touch-ups that need to happen will happen. Then, the desk painting. I love being included in this wonderful project! I would love to hear what you think! Please leave a comment!

Hello Spring! What should I wear today?

This is one of my newest pendants and I am really in love. The medium is a lot of fun to work with for a couple of reasons. First, I have always been drawn to strong graphic art. Although my paintings are not generally like this, I really like it, especially for something like jewelry. The glass paint actually makes it difficult to paint any other way than in a strong graphic voice. Second, I love the discovery that comes from each new piece of plate. The shapes that are made randomly from the plate breaking add a sense of mystery and predestined fate for each piece, giving each piece a real personality all it's own. As these pieces get sold, I anticipate selling new ones in the same design, but with the understanding that the shape may vary. I hope that will make the pendants a discovery for my clients as well! To view this pendant and others, go here for my Etsy shop, or here for my Andie Freeman studio shop. To learn more about me and my process, visit here.

One more for you to check out... to see the Octopus Arms Pendant, go to This Little Pigment or to Andie Freeman Fine Art.

Don't you want a fresh cup of website?

I hope you had a beautiful Easter! Easter Sunday was the last day of our spring break and was a fantastic way to end our vacation. We started with a trip to Washington D.C. and ended with a trip to Hilton Head, South Carolina, so a lot was stuffed into a week. Even with all of that traveling, we generally took it easy. Lots of time was spent wandering the beach and observing nature. 

Before going on vacation I started a new project that I am passionate about. I redesigned my site. I know, you are thinking, that doesn't sound like fun. Well, it is tedious, and it still has many holes that need to be filled, but I am passionate about it because it will make my artwork more accessible for different people and it allows me a new way to tell my story to more people. 

I would really appreciate it if you would visit my site and let me know in my comments section on my blog what you think. I would really, really appreciate it if you would share my site with someone you know that you think would enjoy it. My new site will be a place where you can get all of my information at one address...very easy to understand address.... it's www.andiefreeman.com. I will keep you in the loop as it develops!
