Happy Giving Tuesday Y'all,
|
You may have noticed that I often create pieces inspired by wetlands. They help filter water, and they also foster incredible biodiversity. That's why, for each block print you buy today, I'll donate $5 to the Triangle Land Conservancy. I chose TLC, specifically because of their Upper Neuse Clean Water Initiative.
To sweeten the offer, I'm also offering pre-orders of a brand new wetland inspired print, featuring a great blue heron and painted turtle amidst southern blue flag iris and pickerel weeds. All pre-orders made today will also count towards my TLC donation total.

What's New: "The Heron Takes Flight"
Yesterday I pulled the first prints of this carved block and I'm loving how it turned out. "The Heron Takes Flight" is a continuation of my popular heron series, but I've mixed it up with the addition of painted turtles and southern blue flag
irises. The color work on the wings was especially tricky, but they turned out so showy! I'm giving my email subscribers the first chance to buy this Heron before I make it available for sale to the general public (on Thursday, December 2nd.) This will give y'all dibs on the lowest numbered prints in the edition.* I'll be reserving prints in the order that folks email me-- so if you want to snag the first print from this block, click
here now! :)
* Limited Edition of 85 Prints. Cost: $109, Size: 13x19 Including custom cut acid free matboard.)

Don't forget your gift cards!
Gift cards are here y'all! I've got digital gift cards available for purchase on my website, and I've also got some
physical cards for y'all to grab at my in-person events.
Thanks and Shipping Notes!
The free shipping and local pickup options I instituted last month are working out well, so I'm going to continue that at least through December 15th. Hopefully this will help shield y'all against increased shipping costs. As the holiday's get closer, I'm anticipating mail slow
downs, so if you do live locally and are able to come see me at in person events, that would be helpful. If you can't make it to an event, but want to schedule a shopping appointment, email me and we'll set something up!
I am so energized, even in the craziness of the holiday season! Thank you for all you do to support NSPH!
