Art as a Gift



What lovelier gift could you present to someone than a piece of Art.  Everyone that I know, would love a gift that was once in someone's imagination, then brought to life by the artist's own hands.
That brings me to a thought of all the artists out there that besides getting all their pieces finished for the gifts they want to give, are also busy finishing up all the commissioned work that others gave to them for their presents for others. That makes a very stressful time of the year for all the working a artists.
If you haven't already commissioned an artist to do something for you, I would suggest that for this year go to a studio and purchase something that they have already accomplished and think about that commissioned piece for next year. Seranya Studios Art Boutique would be the perfect place to find that one of a kind piece of art for that special person in your life. In fact, their grand Candle-lit Christmas open house is tonight (Friday, Dec. 5th) from 4PM to 8PM and again tomorrow from 10AM to 4PM. You are sure to find that "just right" gift as there are many artists displaying and selling their work there.
Even though, I for one, can not believe we are into December already this year, doesn't change the fact that indeed we are. Take a little "time" to also make this time special for you.
Recharge your own batteries, take a deep breath, and even though you perhaps might not feel like it, partake in some of the festivities in your home town. That just  might be the piece of the pie that makes the spirit bright.
Happy Artful shopping.


Stay tuned.

  1. Lynda, my favorite pieces of art are those I have purchased from the artist himself/herself. The things with which we surround ourselves always have more meaning when we have a relationship with their maker. I think it's the same spiritually. We relate best to God's creation when we have an intimate relationship with Him.
    One of the things I have enjoyed about Seranya is the opportunity to become friends with the other artists. Their work has so much more meaning when we relate the object to its maker.
