Elizabeth See

I shall wrap this week with the beautiful work by Elizabeth See an oil painter from Washington. The main subject matter of her work animals and birds are painted in vibrant oil colors on a thick piece of wood rather than canvas usually with the painted sides. Each piece is signed and dated by the artist, and comes with a wire attached on the back for easy hanging. 

You can find her paintings that are available for purchase here and follow her blog for details on her upcoming shows. She will be participating in Trout Lake Festival Of The Arts July 11 and 12th, Trout Lake, Washington, if you are in the area then may be you would like to check out her work.

Have a wonderful 4th of July weekend! I'll see you on Monday.

Diamond Studded Owl Cuff by Atelier Minyon

Turkish designer Alp Sagnak makes fine jewelery to offer in his flagship store Atelier Minyon in SoHo, New York. His pieces are handcrafted and one-of-a-kind made with 24K gold and and oxidized silver embellished with diamonds, rubies, sapphires, emeralds and pearls. The stunning owl cuff is a luxurious statement piece crafted with silver and 7.81cts diamonds, and comes at a whooping $65,000! I certainly cannot afford the price (unless of course I win a lottery) but it definitely a unique jewelry item worth sharing.
