I’m interested in purchasing a small quantity of “glazed tiles” to make a repair. (We purchased a framed artwork consisting of a grouping of approx. 1-1/2″ glazed tiles some years ago at a Schaumburg Arts Festival. Please contact me via e-mail to let me know if you would sell these -in a small quantity. Size can vary. I’m thinking of epoxying them over a few gaping holes I have in a rattan drawer.
Thank you, Sharon Turesk
SHARON – I do have more of those tiles, lots more, and I could sell off a few for your project. Do you want them to “coordinate” with the colors of the tile piece you’ve got? If so, shoot me an e-mail with a picture of your wall piece. As well as an estimate of how many tiles you might be looking for?! I could either send them to you, or I could bring them out to the Schaumburg Art Fair if you’re coming back this May.
Where is the Sat Dec 14 show? Time?
JANE – The show tomorrow is at my home in Chicago from 10:00am-6:00pm. I live on the north side pretty close to Loyola University. I’ll send you an e-mail with the address. Thanks for checking. I hope you can make it tomorrow!!!
I love these wall pillows, and I’d like to see them in person. Are you open on Saturdays? What are their sizes, and how much do they cost?
Thanks,
Barb
BARBARA – And I would love for YOU to see them in person too! I can meet you at my studio on Saturdays if that’s best for you. We just need to arrange a time as we don’t have “standard hours” in my studio. I’ve just responded to your e-mail. Hopefully you’ve received the information and we can work out a time for tomorrow. Thanks for checking in!
Hey, glad I found your website, I named my son Jackson because of a guy named Gary Jackson that I met in 1972. Hoped you were him. But of course you’re not. However I love your story, I also love art and bike riding. I’m working hard for corporate’s and you have inspired me to work harder for my loves. I’m from Louisville, Kentucky. Maybe I’ll be able to see your work there. Keep sending good vibes!
Please confirm the Glenview Art Fair Dates, as the listed dates are 2020. I don’t want to miss it.
GOOD CATCH KAREN – I was “apparently” waiting for my show acceptance confirmation to update the show dates… and then forgot!!! And yes, you are correct… and I’ve corrected the list on my website! The correct days are Saturday, July 24th & Sunday, July 25th. Thanks for checking… and thanks for the heads-up!
