 Just wait 'til you see (and taste) what we've got for you for Valentine's Day! It’s a Valentine’s delight…
…with everything you need for your sweeties!
Our Pre-Valentine’s Day Sale with Benefits has a number of bonuses for you: a time and money-saving package of gift items for the most special folks in your life, and additional discounts on the fine art prints and original artworks you secretly lust for.
What’s in a Love Mug? It’s a full-featured package of ways to say what’s in your heart, including our new rose-fronted greeting card, and our brand-new 11oz. rose-wrapped coffee mug filled with four very special custom chocolate truffles, created for us in delicious collaboration with River Chocolates in Essex. Needless to say, all the art is created by Debi. What’s more, each Love Mug includes coupons for February-only discounts on Debi’s art AND River Chocolates!
So for just $25 (which includes sales tax) you get two never-wilt roses on a card to carry your sweetest prose and a mug to keep warm with, and enough special chocolate for each of you to have seconds – PLUS a chance to save money on lovely art to keep with you forever, and delicious hand-made chocolates that will make everything feel better than it already is.
Each Love Mug travels in its own gift packaging, meaning you don’t have to do a thing but slide it to your sweetheart, then stand back and soak up the sugar…
Pick up your Love Mugs here at the Church House (1338 Saybrook Rd.) in Haddam, on Friday, February 10 from 5-8pm or Sunday, February 12 from 1-4pm. For more information, please email us at Encourer (at) EncoureArts.com or call 860-345-8686.
While you’re here you’ll be able to choose from a selection of Debi’s framed work, work in progress, our other mugs, magnets and cards, if you are so inclined.
Don’t miss this chance to make this your best Valentine’s Day of the year… we hope to see you here on Friday the 10th or Sunday the 12th!
Love,
John and Debi
Here in Connecticut, 2011 was a year of weathering.
Storms and their aftermath, of course.
But economic and health-related pressure-centers also blew through all our lives, leaving few of us untouched.
With the holidays just behind us and a new year coming on strong, we’re sorting through an interesting blend of relief, anxiety, triumph, anticipation,

…for holiday letters, and year-end top ten lists.
Number one thing I can’t stand: holiday letters and top-ten lists. But here’s my letter, and what there is of my list.
Debi and I were in Philadelphia last week for a quick cancer oil-check. No bad news there, thankyouverymuch.
We couldn’t help but notice

It takes a gentle touch to work a tiny easel…
You know what they say: Big shoes – big feet.
Our new Tiny Easel series works the other side of the street: tiny little pieces of beauty practically bursting out of their frames.
Each piece is a miniature example of Debi’s unique “Photo-Fusion” process: high-quality

I’m not talking about the weather.
I’m talking about the new items we brought to the Buttonwood Tree Saturday, December 3 during a FREE opening reception and kickoff for the BT’s first-ever membership drive.
Included in Debi’s “Sensations” collection was an incredible new way to see one of our favorite images, a set of mugs

Perhaps Nick Nolte could have used a bit of joe from one of our new “Awake Zone” mugs before posing for his infamous 2002 “not my mug shot” mug shot.

Or maybe you’d like to enjoy a nice warm beverage from one of

Our first magnet set – already popular in… France!?
Kids loooooove stickers. But magnets are for folks who are into heavy metal – like refrigerators, or filing cabinets.
If you’re also into art, you’ll love our new magnet set, which bring beautiful images to the everyday places of our lives.
Each magnet is a

Autumn is gorgeous, the weather is mostly fine, and life is mostly better than we sometimes think it is. But two years ago around this time of year, we were preparing for Debi’s breast cancer surgery and followup treatment. You can read about it here, or I can spoil the surprise and let you know

What can we say? We had so much fun the first time – and took so much abuse from friends who were out of the country or missed it for other reasons – we did it again Sunday evening June 12 between 6pm and 9pm.
We served some delicious snacks, and played some great music
