Making the Best of this Time
Artist Janet White has graciously donated her clever “Sheltering at Home” enamel button, with all auction proceeds going to the United Way. The roof of the button moves to reveal the Shelterees! Summer 2020 July 11, Lot #122.
Coming Home
Home, a welcome site after a hard day in the fields. This lovely atmospheric underglass button combines multiple techniques. The foreground elements are reverse-painted, the windows of the farmhouse are backed with foil to simulate mellow candlelight, and the background is a watercolor painting on paper. Lot #144 in our Summer 2020 Auction.
