Announcement    Welcome to Painted Strangers Shop on Etsy. I am so happy to be a member of Etsy and you can find my vintage photos and prints here at my other store
http://www.etsy.com/shop/maclancy?ga_search_query=maclancy&ga_search_type=seller_usernames
and my latest The Fox Hollow, vintage collectibles from lace to dolls http://www.etsy.com/shop/TheFoxHollow?ref=si_shop

When I am not selling vintage photos and prints at my Clancys Classic store here on Etsy or hunting estate sales for the perfect vintage collectible at my The Fox Hollow Store, I am busy painting which is something I have done all my life. Many of my imagery comes from my vintage photo collection and I use them as source material. There are also paintings from my drawings I have made. I use a variety of mediums such as watercolor, acrylic, gouache and encaustic beeswax.

I will also be offering prints of my work here as well. Anything you see that is available as a print is probably still available as an original. And anything offered as an original is also probably available as a print. I have access to a great printer at home for up to 8.5"X11" but also in town one that prints very large and even prints on stretched canvas..Just convo and ask.

Almost any art that is offered as a print in this store is available as an original. Send me a convo and I will get right back to you with pricing. Some of the art has already been sold but many pieces still remain and I am working with encaustics daily so check back and see what new items I have listed now and again.
thanks for stopping into my store!

  • My office and computer with grandkids and vintage prints on the wall.
  • My grand daughters with my rescue dog Buddha. They give me inspiration. The younger one is learning to do encaustic.

Painting and history merge in my work

I started my shop to share my art that has filled my heart and my life for the past 45 years. I have always wanted to be and believed that I am an artist at heart. I do other things I enjoy, like working in my vintage shop and my old photo shops on Etsy but really what I do for myself is my art. I have always loved painting, my father too is a painter and it seems art is in the family as my younger daughter is also an artist and designer. For the first 30 years my art revolved around watercolors, oils, and gouache and then I saw an Encaustic painting on a trip to Mexico and fell in love with the medium immediately. So, for the past 10 years I have daily worked on my encaustic beeswax paintings. I am self taught. Once I discovered encaustic, all my other mediums were almost lonely from not using them. My latest series is from retro cookbooks and the theme is both colorful and reminds me of when I was younger and would cook from my Betty Crocker cookbooks with all the vibrant and beautiful art and photos of cakes and pies. The encaustic paintings also have a wonderful 3D appeal as well as a nice smell.
I hope that you will enjoy my art as much as I do making it.

    I am the oldest of 11 children I have 2 daughters who live near by, 4 lovely grandchildren and my little rescue dog Buddha, who is my constant companion in the garden and on daily walks in the sun and yes, the rain. Art is my joy. I hope to share it.

welcome to painted strangers. I love painting in any medium. I spent many years painting over my photographs and then switched to watercolor, oil, oil pastel and most recently have fallen in love with goauche and encaustic beeswax. I am leaning on the wax more and more as I discover its amazing properties. IT is not an easy medium to control so you have to "go with the flow" with wax which can be fun and often a challenge which I love. Anything you see in the store is probably available as the original and vice versa~original art can be made into a print. If you want to see the side of any of the art pieces or back, let me know. Would love to hear from you.
Drop me a line. Thanks for stopping into Painted Strangers. Marianne
