Bee Love Summer Fresh Art Prints & Notebooks

Posted on by

Introducing our new “Bee LOVE” illustration! My ode to all things wildflower, garden blooming, and crop pollinating.

Our “Bee LOVE” illustration has a sweet double meaning, by adding more love and joy into the world. Something every single body needs more of, no matter who you are. ❤️

⇑ Bee LOVE art print, in Sweet Cream. Also available in Crisp White and Garden Green.

ART PRINT DETAILS:

⇒ The art print versions of  our “Bee LOVE” illustration comes in 3 colorways: Garden Green, Sweet Cream, and Crisp White.

⇒ All color options shown below.

⇒ “Bee LOVE” is also available in 3 standard US sized frame options too: 8×10 inches  / 11×14 inches (as above) / and 13×19 inches (as below) too.

⇑ From top left to bottom left: Colorway options are: Garden Green, Sweet Cream, and Crisp White. Framed “Bee LOVE” art print shown is 11×14 inches.

⇑ Our Bee LOVE giclee art print in Garden Green, using a magnetic wooden slat print hanging system.

Adding to the double-meaning good vibes, we’ve released this design as both an art print and also double-sided sketch & notebook journals too.

Bee LOVE is also available as a beautiful new notebook, sketchbook or journal featuring a double-sided illustration of this field of tall flowers and a sweet honey bee on both the front and back covers. One side is Sweet Cream, the other side is Deep Garden Green.

Plan a garden, sketch your flowers, write your thoughts and embrace summer with us.

We love these sketchbook journals so much. The heavy duty paper is a dream and we’ve oriented the illustrations so that you get to choose which side and colorway (Garden Green or Sweet Cream as above) will be your front & back covers too. Yay!

Both the art prints of Bee LOVE and the Sketchbooks are available and ready to ship here at our website shop and also here in our Etsy store too.

Let’s Summer! 🌸

⇑ Detail close-ups of our “Bee LOVE” hand drawn design.

NOTEBOOK DETAILS:

⇒ With a sturdy black metal spiral binding, you can either use the dark green or the summer cream as your “front cover”. We laid our these journals so that when you flip your notebook over the artwork is facing the right way. So you get to choose which color is your cover! 🎨

⇒ Added bonus – these notebooks are perfect for left-handed folks too.

⇒  Sized at 7.5in x 10in our Bee LOVE notebooks are small enough to tote and carry easily. But large enough to actually jot down your thoughts, draw out garden plots, and/or sketch & make art. ❤️

⇒  32 heavy duty drawing paper pages and a matte velvet laminated softcover that feels great in your hands. 💙

⇒ The interior pages are a hefty 80lb card stock. That makes these garden journal sketchbooks pages a lovely, beefy, matte finish that’s a joy to sketch, draw, and write in and create. 💚

⇒ Record your thoughts, plan your garden, sketch with pens, pencils, or gouache paints, or just have the happiest to do list notebook ever! ✏️

Our Beautiful New Illustrated 2024 Wall Calendars Are Here!

Posted on by

2024 Wall Art Calendar: Fresh new art for brand new starts. All year long.

Hello there friends!

As promised, we’re dropping a quick announcement that our limited edition 2024 Wall Calendars are here! Available in both our Etsy Shop and website store. Click any images to see more!

We designed our very first limited edition flip Wall Calendars last year for 2023, and not gonna lie, they sold out super dang fast. We even had to sneak in a rush 2nd printing last year to keep up. Even so, they still sold out before the Holidays. Whoa!

 

 What will your January look like? Let’s make it cozy, hygge, and bright!

 

Yay! But also? Sad trombones for those who weren’t able to get one for 2023.

GOOD NEWS: We are doing a bit larger of a run this year, hooray! But, do note that this is a limited edition Wall Calendar and we won’t be adding a second print run this year. So when they’re gone? They’re really gone forever.

 

Our Wall Calendars were a hot friends & family gift item for the Holidays last year and we can’t even begin to tell you how much it means when our art is gifted to loved ones. So much gratitude here for bringing our art into your homes, thank you!

 

Sweet birds tending to their winter berry tree deep in December.

The Details:

  • All new art, beautifully printed in vibrant & deliciously saturated full color right here in Pittsburgh, PA.
  • Size: A fits-just-about-anywhere 12.5 inches (tall) x 7 inches (wide).
  • Each month features a handy list ready for you to customize with fun events and activities. Never forget to take the time to go blueberry picking in July ever again!
  • Chock full of illustrated seasonal sweetness for each month of the year.
  • Printed on crisp, sturdy, bright white FSC® Certified / SFI® Certified Sourcing / and Rainforest Alliance Certified® Cougar paper.

Front cover, October and back cover with a preview of all 12 months for 2024.

Wanna dig a little deeper?

Being a history nerd, Allison revisited the history of calendars a teeny bit and came across the writer Jean Hersey and her 1967 book The Shape of a Year, thanks to the lovely blog series Lost Ladies of Garden Writing by gardening writer humorist (who knew that was a thing?) Carol Michel. If a memoir of marking out one year via the change of seasons, which birds, insects, & critters come to visit a yard while gardens grow, die back, and grow again appeals? Then this wholesome slice of Mid-Century America is for you too.Pro-tip: Allison’s used book secret treasure trove is AbeBooks.

 

Thanks so much for reading this far! Wishing you a cozy Autumn!

Virtual Three Rivers Arts Festival – 2020 Coronavirus Edition

Posted on by
Reply

2020, what a year. Already. Normally I would be in our booth in downtown Pittsburgh right now at the Three Rivers Arts Festival. Unsurpisingly many art festivals and fairs had to cancel this year due to the coronavirus pandemic and social distancing. The wonderful and huge 10 day long Three Rivers Arts Festival is clearly among them. Typically drawing in up to 500,000 visitors over the course of the Festival, TRAF transformed into a virtual Festival this year from June 5-14, 2020. Why? As the Pittsburgh Cultural Trust Says: “Because art matters, and that’s really the heart of our iconic, one-of-a-kind Festival. We wouldn’t miss it for the world. Read our full statement here and follow us @CulturalTrust for updates.”

This time is challenging all around, and art festival artists like us are especially hard hit. For us personally, art fairs and festivals make up about 60% – 75% of our annual business and sales. Meaning that we expect to lose 60% – 75% of our studio’s income this year. So the financial loss is massive to full time working artists. Additionally we are truly missing the lively and fun in-person interactions with thousands of people talking about everything from art, to movies, to dogs, to yes…the rain! The best part about this Virtual Arts Fest? Rain won’t be an issue!

Three Rivers Arts Fest built a really beautiful website with lots of ways to find and share your favorite parts of the Three Rivers experience, click around and explore! All of the artists would be immensely grateful for any support. One benefit to the Virtual TRAF? We ship! Anywhere and everywhere. So you don’t even have to find parking, or wade through crowds. Our website shop is here, and our Etsy Shop with our new line of Petite Prints is here. You can explore the Virtual Artists Market here and visit the artists social media accounts to see how we make our work, or visit our websites (like ours here) and web shops too to buy original art from hard working, and now hard hit artists from around the country.

Our Pittsburgh, City of Bridges Prints in grey. Teal is also available and both colorways come in different sizes. And yes! Can be bought together or separately.

We know this time has been and will continue to be very hard for so many. We have been making substantial donations to organizations that are dedicated to doing the most good like the Pittsburgh Community Food Bank, the NAACP Legal Defense Fund and more. And we will continue our weekly donations of all online sales to direct action organizations throughout these times for as long as we can. So each purchase from us also helps many in our community. For real.

Our Peacebird hand pulled silkscreen art print. Available in our online shops!

Below are some of the other ways to explore the 2020 Virtual Three Rivers Arts Festival. Click on the images to go and check them out.

And finally, we hope that you stay safe and well during the pandemic and this time.
