Art Collectors?



Well, it seems we have become art collectors. Over the last couple of years we have been purchasing original art from local artists.  Example, the painting of David Bowie by Clay Elliot. It 's called "Something in the Air Tonight" .  We found his art at (of all places) Pita Jungle.














Another artist we found and liked very much is Don Smiley. He has an abstract style and suffered a stroke  a few years ago.

Kerry found Phillip Grainger's art in Cave Creek.  She bought the painting to the right... "James Lone Elk".... Vibrant colors...























Our current favorite is Mark Hemleben.  
His is a Plein-air artist from Jerome.  We purchased "Old Dusty" last weekend (my birthday weekend).  His work is below...


















Today we bought a piece by Judy Darbyshire. It's a Bull Terrier... very fun.

Whose to know what's next? Sculpture, carving...
