Sneak Peek ~ Mini Photo Art

 

 

SNEAK PEEK!

I was going to wait and share this with you when I had more done, better photos, blah blah blah… but they came out really cool and I suck at surprises and want to show you now.  They are mini metal photos on cute little easels, perfect for Mother’s Day!  (I know the guys are all tuning me out right now because “cute” isn’t part of their vocabulary, but hey, if you have kids and need a gift for their grandma that will make her oooh and ahhh, I just may have the thing for you.  If you have small kids and need a gift for your wife, you’re probably better off sending her to a spa while you do dishes and laundry.)
So I’ll be sharing more examples in the next few weeks, but if you want to grab them early, shoot me an email! chris (at) copperleafstudios.net   I’ll be doing a 1 for $25, 2 for $45, 3 for $60 special.  All you’ll need is a good, clear photo — I’ll do all the editing.  Color is fine, and I’m happy to crop your son’s face out of a group photo.  Just don’t send photos taken by a pro unless you have their permission.

Take care!

Red Hot Lovely

Red Hot Lovely

I don’t normally do holiday-themed pieces, especially Valentine’s Day.  Somehow Valentine’s Day items tend to feel either overly commercial, or cloying, or both.  But I wanted to play with text, and the texture of the written word.  The font seemed to lend itself toward a Romantic design, in the proper sense of the term — so I decided on French phrases of affection.  I glazed the metal a deep crimson red to keep the writing from feeling too overpowering, and then, well, I sat on it.  I had a bit of trouble deciding how to finish the design, amplified by a metal order that has been endlessly delayed.  The key idea was actually my daughter’s, (something she isn’t about to let me forget,) but I think it’s the perfect accent.

I’ve made three variations of the design ~ the mini easel art (above), a jewelry/ keepsake box with the same design:

…and one version that I kept black and white.  It has a very different feel without the color — I couldn’t help keeping one just like this:

These pieces are currently available as (very) limited editions — if you are interested in purchasing, click on the photos above to go to , or email me!  The artwork is a standard ACEO size, 2.5 x 3.5 inches (the size of a playing card).  Mini art versions are $25, and come with a display easel.  The box is approx. 3.25 x 4 x 2.5 inches ~ it fits standard business cards comfortably, or makes a lovely jewelry or keepsake box ($50) (SOLD OUT).  The keys all differ slightly, so there will be minor variations — and once my collection runs out, they’re officially gone.  Any pieces purchased will be shipped out via Priority Mail, so that they will reach any U.S. location within 3 days  (hint: order by Thursday if you want it for Valentine’s Day!).

I hope you enjoy, and have a great week!

Chris
