It's been a while, but I've finally listed a whole bunch of fun new pieces on my Etsy website (link above). Right now, I don't sell my original artwork online but I do sell archival pigment prints of work I used to make - travel photos, collage prints - and for fun, vintage illustrations of flatware and furniture. Some are framed, some are mounted on recycled wood. Fun, inexpensive gifts for anyone! Thanks, Cherie

Sunday, May 31, Handmade Mart in Silver Spring

In the studio here in Woodley Park - tons of new work! Getting ready for my first indie art show next Sunday in Silver Spring, Maryland. I'm having sooo much fun working with recycled & re-purposed materials for mounting my collages, photographs and mixed media pieces. I've salvaged decorative wood substrate backings from old houses in Lewes and Washington - - and even from the old interior of Eastern Market on Capitol Hill. More info on the show can be found here:

Handmade Mart is May 31, 2009, 10am-5pm Ellsworth Drive (Between Fenton Ave. and Georgia Ave.) Downtown Silver Spring. Powered by the Pyramid Atlantic Art Center, the Handmade Mart will host more than 50 independent crafters for a unique shopping experience along the bustling Ellsworth Drive in Downtown Silver Spring. Along with an awesome array of craft vendors, the Handmade Mart will also feature a full day of live indie rock, and hands-on workshops at the Pyramid Atlantic Store. http://handmademart.blogspot.com/ for vendor interviews and a link to their facebook page. Hope to see you there!
