FGF: Art


WE HAVE A WINNER!

Congratulations to Entry # 19!!! ZentMrs!


***********

Is today really Friday? I hope so, because I'm having a GIVEAWAY!!!


This week's giveaway is brought to you by Catherine Holman Folk Art! She has SOOO many beautiful pieces on her etsy page!!!

Here is little info about her business:

"My paintings depict life in simpler times. These scenes remind me that we should live life at a slower pace with more time for family and friends. Today everyone seems to think that bigger is better, but I still prefer small cozy cottages and getting to know my neighbors."


And she also offers custom orders!!!


WHAT I LOVE about her etsy page is that each piece has a story/meaning behind it. Be sure to take a few moments and read about what is going on in these pictures! Also, each piece lists its size.



























Catherine also has a blog page about herself and her work. You can learn more about her and her business at http://www.catherineholmanfolkart.blogspot.com/


WANT TO WIN? The winner will get to select the painting of their choice!!!


Rules:

1) (required) You must visit Catherine Holman Folk Art and tell me which painting you would select if you were the winner!


2) For a second (and separate) entry, become a follower, or let me know if you already are.


3) For an extra 2 entries (both separate) post about this giveaway on your blog and link back to here!


4) Winner will be announced Monday morning!

I love "Silent Night"

OMG!!! I'm in LOVE with them all! My favorite is the Leadville Train Station for it looks just like the Royal Gorge Train Station outside Denver, CO. Looks just like my pictures when we were there with the G's! I have read several stories to G this a.m....very very clever! Love, mom xooxoxxooxox

I love the Tanglewood Farm. These are fun!

Jennifer Owens said...

Wow! I love her stuff - it is SO me!!! Picking just one favorite is incredibly hard! Since I'm such a nut for fall I'll have to say that I love the Autumn Glory the most. However, I could put every single one of these in my house!

This is a great giveaway! It's a hard choice, but I'd probably go with either "Moonlight in Pilot Grove" or a "A Lazy Saturday Morning."
