Ending Sales of Art

The time has come to end on-line sales for Ruth's artwork. Thank you for your interest in her art and her story. We have met many amazing people through her art.  Thank you for your support!
If you would like to support the organization that helps the orphans at her orphanage in Ukraine you may do so at AnOrphanSmiles.
Don't worry, Ruth continues to do art for her own pleasure and not for sale. Please do not try and buy art from her. She does not need the financial support and the income reporting has become an issue.
Thank you!

Winter has passed and spring has come. Ruth's art is filled with birds, sunsets and flowers.

Updated Art 2017

I apologize for the long delay of updates in 2017.  The recovery from surgery took many months. Ruth has been working however furiously on preparing for the fall craft fair at SLHS. Here is a sneak peak at what is new:
  • "Nevertheless, she persisted"- This oil painting was done as part of a summer art class and represents the strength Ruth has shown throughout her struggles. This print has been made into 4x3 magnets and a few journals.
2.  2018 Artwork Calendars will also be available, with some of Ruth's traditional encaustic art as well as some of her oil paintings. She had a lot of fun with birds this year.
We did not order mugs this year due to wanting to have gifts of art that were reasonably priced and having several left over from the previous years.
We look forward to seeing you at the SLHS craft fair November 4 and 5th 2017!

2016 Artwork

The year is half over and I realize that we have not been putting new art on the blog. Ruth continues with her encaustic creations exploring shapes and textured layering. The end product of layered wax is hard to scan well as it is three dimensional and a scan is two dimensional. Here are some of her most recent creations.
