This is my new (and only) power tool. An ELECTRIC staple gun! It saved my wrist much wear and tear last week.
39 Flower Prints were born!
I spent the better part of last week working on stretching a whole new batch of Giclee prints for some upcoming events I’m participating in.
It was a marathon of stretching for me, as I assembled 30 small flower prints and 9 large prints. Thank goodness for my new POWER Stapler — AND the ear plugs! (Why didn’t I think of using these two invaluable tools years ago?)
Here are six large flowers. They are 36 inches tall x 18 inches wide, which was the size of the originals.
Here is my studio being taken over by the smaller prints. They are each 16 inches high x 8 inches wide.
Below are some photos I took throughout the process of getting these prints onto the wooden stretcher bars.
Here’s a close-up of the 10 different flowers that are available in this series of fine art prints.
If you look to the top left corner you’ll see my new full-sized prints hanging up on the yellow doors.
The first event where I showed my prints happened last Thursday night at TWIGS Tempietto. It was a fundraiser for the National Pancreas Foundation. Even though this event was brand new, it still raised $6,300 for this great cause, thanks to all the hard work of Christy Dias (founder of the Cranky Panky.)
