A Little Switcharoo and A Giveaway!


This giveaway is now closed.

When I was re-decorating my master bedroom, I created this vignette on the table that resides between two chairs in the sitting area.


The little piece of artwork hanging on the wall was just that - a little piece of art that I was using as a filler until I could find just the right thing.


You may have noticed that I have several bird items scattered throughout the room so I was excited when I came across Artistico while searching on Etsy.  I found the exact type of artwork that I was looking for!  It is mixed media on artist's canvas.  I love the vintage feel of the typography and all of the colors that were used in creating this piece.


Here's the piece all framed, in it's new home.


It isn't all that much larger than the piece that it replaced, but the chunkier frame and bright colors are just right tucked into this vignette.


When I placed my order, Kostas, the owner of Artistico, contacted me about giving away one of his lovely creations.  I jumped on the chance!  So along with my piece, Kostas also sent this awesome 17.5" x 12.5" piece.  


Here's how Kostas describes it:

art works on cotton canvas vintage handmade poster. fine art birds on manuscript typography, retro old PRINT and gold leafing details TITLE: Death collectors
size 11,69 X 16,535 inches in cotton canvas
Mixed media art with gold leafing acrylics and satin varnish finish. BEAUTIFUL PRINT
It is printed with Archival High Quality inks.
All my prints Signed, dated by artist.

I'm really excited to be able to offer this piece of mixed media art to you!
