Welcome Back Baraonda Caffe Italiano as ARTvision Sponsor

As we close out the 2011 year in sales tomorrow night, we welcome back Baraonda as official ARTvision sponsor. They have again agreed to donate all the dough for The NYE Gourmet Pizza Extravaganza. As you enjoy pies like “Closed on Sundays” and “The Vampire Diaries,” remember that the dough on which the pizzas are baked are fully donated for the event on New Year’s Eve - as we try and sell our last remaining pieces of the 2011 season to benefit Positive Impact.

Need Framing Expertise? ARTvision Fans Look No Further

If the image is the heart and soul of a presented, exhibited piece, then the framing is its spine and skeleton. This year, ARTvision Artists have dipped into unprecedented resources to make their pieces a reality. Here are some highlights:

  • JD Isaacs, himself a returning ARTvision Artist this year with “What Dreams May Come,” has worked hard on a number of pieces, including Dean Ignacio’s stunning Folsom series.

  • Todd Wiggins’ “Presence” was set and floated in a wood frame by Antonio Raimo Galleries, located in Atlanta’s Miami Circle area of shops and galleries.

  • Walt Woodall at Metro Gallery and Framing has worked on Mary Pollock’s “Bird in Hand,” and donated full framing services for the quad collaboration of “’Tis of Thee.”

  • When in a bind to find a suitable frame for Julia Murney’s “Lulu’s Bubbles” (BTW, bidding is still active on eBay as of this writing), we found the perfect solution at The Framers on Peachtree. They have a great selection of stock frames for good prices.

  • For the first time, we’ve used PictureFrames.com for a few of our items. Both frames for “Nomad” by Will Pollock and “Palm Lagoon” by Gordon Stuedler were sourced here, and finished up by Walt at Metro. Highly recommended with a large selection.

Make sure to patronize these establishments and report back with good experiences so we can share them.
