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!

Happy New Year!

Thank you to all of our new friends who have discovered Ruth's art during our time in Baltimore for her latest surgery. As soon as she is released to walk again she will begin making new art for you to order. Until then we only have her current stock available. Let us know if you see anything you like!
These Encaustic pieces are matted and framed to an 8x10 finished size and are $20 each.

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.

2015 Art Collage Mugs

This year's art collage mugs will feature many of Ruth's summer and fall flowers.  I couldn't get a photo of the finished 11oz. mug for the blog here is the screenshot of the collage that will be wrapped onto the mug with black background. These will be available for $15 at the SLHS Craft Fair November 6-7, 2015.

2016 Artwork by Ruth Calendars Are Here!

These will be available at the November 6-7, 2015 SLHS Craft Fair for $15 each. This is a calendar featuring the artwork she has done in 2015. Many of the summer and fall flowers will be in there as well as her classic styled  and new styled landscapes.

A Study in Summer Flowers

It's been a while since Ruth has found a new love in her encaustic art. This season it is playing with flowers.  These bright and whimsical pieces make everyone smile. There are enough to make next year's Artwork by Ruth calendar just with flowers. We are also toying with mounting some as a series on one or two larger pieces of art board.  Stay tuned for more!
