As I say goodbye to Grass Roots, I am excited to begin our new adventure. It is not lost on me, during Women’s History Month, I closed the doors to my small business, only to open the doors to my new company. It gives me great pleasure to announce the name of my new business.

We are a multi medium art gallery with a focus on one of a kind handmade pieces, all by local artists.

I welcome you to like and follow our new page, as I will begin to post updates as they unfold.

Lastly, I would like to extend a very heartfelt thank you to you all. Your very kind support of us over the last few years, is what has helped us grow to where we are now. It has been my absolute pleasure crocheting, creating and serving you all, and I look forward to continuing to do so.

Let the journey begin.

Another acrylic pour is in the curing process. I love the marbling pattern. This one just may be my favorite thus far.

Another throw is completed. You didn’t expect me to put down my crochet hook for too long, did you?

I have always appreciated the splendid array of colors our coastal shells provide us with. I find muscle shells to be particularly beautiful. So it’s little wonder where my inspiration for this acrylic pour came from. Let what surrounds you, inspire you.

Let me pour my art out. Another acrylic pour is done and now curing. I just love the color pattern. I can’t wait to see how it looks framed on the wall.
