Colonial Williamsburg Gets a Tramp.....The Art Tramp that is!

I have only been to Colonial Williamsburg

a couple of times but I remember

my visits with much warmth and admiration.

The Abby Aldrich Rockefeller Folk Art Museum

is simply astounding with the quantity

and quality of it's collection....a MUST SEE

for those who truly love Folk Art.

When I visited, it was late Fall.

The leaves had mostly turned but there was

that wonderful "crispness" in the air.

The crowds had gone and I was able

to spend time talking with the artisans in their shops.

There were no lines for anywhere and 

I could stroll the streets at ease. The aroma of

Hot Apple Cider filled the air along

with that of the spice cookies they had for sale

on a small street cart.....

it was a wonderful experience!

And now, I have had another wonderful experience

that I wanted to share with all to you.

Some of my Tramp Art will now be available

through the Art Museum Store of Colonial Williamsburg.

They currently have eight of my pieces

and I am working on a small order that should go out

next week. I am also hoping to have the

opportunity to design some Tramp Art pieces that

will be exclusive to Colonial Williamsburg

since those designs will all be my interpretation of

pieces that are in the museums collections.

I am honored to have my art available at

such a wonderful and well respected museum.

The people I have been working with are

outstanding in every way. I want to thank Susan

and Lauren for everything they have done.

I encourage everyone to visit and support

The Colonial Williamsburg Foundation as well as

your local or regional museums....

they are a precious gift for all of us to enjoy!
