Artist Profile

My name is Lori and I have been painting for the past 25 years. I started out doing local craft shows. I also helped for several years to organize the Harvest Craft Fair for our local middle school. It was during this time that a friend and I opened our own craft consignment shoppe in a 1920's building in the small historical village that I grew up in. It used to house the Village Pharmacy and still has it's original tin ceiling and wooden floors where you can see where the shelves once were. We specialize in primitive and the shoppe is full of old doors, windows, sewing machines and vintage display items. We don't do the "booth" thing...we add our consignment items into groupings. If you ever in the area...please stop by and pay us a visit!

We also sell our vintage reproduction items such as tinsel garland, ornies, primitive room sprays and OOAK primitive folf art dolls by Joyce Stahl of Enchanted Productions.

Here's a Youtube video of one of Joyce's dolls Willly T. Goblin that I made to share with Joyce's fans....

After opening the shoppe and selling my painted items in there...I decided to try Ebay. I have been selling my OOAK art on there now for almost 10 years now. I specialize in small chunky canvas acrylic paintings, hand painted mixed media paper hang tags and hand painted OOAK recyled art made from vintage items.
