Contemporary Folk Art Collages

Hello Friends,

I hope you are all enjoying the start of the 2011 holiday season.

Title: Going Shopping by Michelle Edwards
Mixed Media.

Before you go carried away shopping for the upcoming holidays season we'd like for you to remeber that this is a great time of the year to spend quality time with family and friends. It is also a great time to spend with your art! The Green Street Company's contempoary folk artist, Michelle Edwards, has just fell in love again with some of her previous work. Looking for some small projects to do around the house, Michelle has created a series of collage boxes (made out of old cigar boxes!) and plaques featuring some of her vibrant folk art designs. This is a great way to re-use old art designs and in a new way. Below are a few examples of her work.

I hope you have been inspired!

Best wishes,

Michelle L. Edwards
