The power of words...and art!
I love words, both as individual gems and as an artfully woven tapestry that expresses an emotion or a feeling, that tells a tale to make you laugh or cry or just shout "Yes!"
The shop is my place to share my creations inspired by literature: note cards, prints, bookmarks, and magnets, many with Jane Austen themes, and others inspired by other favorite writers or poets. My card designs are often romantic, sometimes humorous ways to share a special moment. And because they're blank inside, they can express anything you want, in your own words.
I love art, too, and especially enjoy putting words and art together to express something in a special way. I often combine vintage and period images with original art and literary quotes in my work.
I am a Jane Austen fan of long standing. Other literary favorites are to be found throughout my shop: Dickinson, Frost, the Brontes and others. Hope you love them, too!
I'm a self-taught artist and graphic designer. I often get "lost" in my work. My husband teases me about "falling down the rabbit hole." Maybe you'll fall down the rabbit hole with me for a few minutes? Thank you for visiting Turtle Doves!
Best wishes,
Sam
