Tomorrow is the Holiday Art and Gift Market at Stifel & Capra, 260 W. Broad Street, Falls Church, VA 22046. Elisabeth Hudgins Art will be there from 10am-3pm with about a dozen other vendors offering: art, jewelry, fused glass, vintage treasures and Apple Pie (from Bob Stifel) ! Yum. Stop on by and see some of the pieces from my "sketchbook" series. I have taken old books and other ephemera, (like the postcard in this piece) and used it for my sketchbook. A great way to recycle.... If you can't make it to the Market tomorrow, my studio upstairs at Stifel & Capra always has a nice assortment of my artwork and other fun items, and is open Monday-Saturday 10am-6pm and Sunday 12noon-5pm.

I have installed some new work at Stifel & Capra for the month of August.... One of the pieces is titled "dreams and high imaginings". I came across that scrap of a sentence in my "bits and pieces" folder.... left over from a previous project (all mixed media artists are pack rats!), and built this piece around the phrase. Mixed media is a good desciption of this as I mixed in the following media: vintage family photo, vintage postcards, old french textbook, lace, my sketches of dragonflies, real butterfly wings, handmade paper, and watercolor.

Elisabeth HudginsI have been an artist all of my life. I can't help it. Drew on the walls in kindergarten, painted pictures in high school, went to Art School, worked as an art director, started painting again. And am loving it. Archives
