Arts In RI team members decided to creatively challenge one another to embrace the season of love with Valentine themed products. Between now and Valentine's Day we will share some of these "lovely" designs with you here on our blog. Let us know how you feel about our art by leaving a comment. Everyone who leaves a comment will be entered into a random drawing for an Arts In RI gift basket featuring goodies from many of our shops. (one entry per person per post. In other words you can enter once every time we post a new product!!!) Be sure to check back on the blog on Valentine's Day as we will announce the winner that day. Entries will be accepted until midnight February 13th.

Our next item is this beautiful bracelet made by Wendy Thatcher of DesignsByWendyT. Wendy says of the stones she used to make this bracelet: "These beautiful AA quality Rhodochrosite nuggets have wonderful striation in varying shades of pinks and blue-gray. Rhodochrosite is believed by some to cleanse the subconscious and allows access to higher thoughts. It is also thought to create emotional balance and assist one in increasing feelings of self-worth and self-esteem." What a wonderful gift for your Valentine. Show her you'd like to take care of her inside and out. The bracelet is 9 inches long and closes with a heart shaped sterling silver toggle. Let us know what you think of this pretty pink bracelet here in the comments and you will be entered to win a gift basket filled with goodies created by our very own Arts In RI team.

Our next item is a sweet wristlet created by Lisa Billings of PinkLemonadeBoutique. Lisa says of her creation: "I HEART linen, and this wristlet combines my favorite fabric and a beautiful embroidered rose applique detail. It's just perfect for a romantic night out on the town, or a cocktail party with friends. A sweet little bag for all your little essentials. I love this piece because it's very pretty and feminine, but not over the top. The natural linen keeps it sophisticated, but the hot pink shades make it just perfectly romantic." Let us know what you think of Lisa's wristlet here in the comments section and you will be entered to win a drawing for a gift basket filled with goodies made by Arts In RI members.

All great loves grow over time... they start out as saplings and then blossom into beautiful relationships with deep roots. Juile Beck of JulieBCreative painted this cute little painting for our challenge. It's her first painting of 2009 and we are so honored! Julie says of her creation: "The colors are super rich...deep crimson reds and brown, with slight hints of purple in the shadows. The sky is a complex layer of pigments...first the warm hue of unbleached titanium white with a wisp of pure white. On top of that is a thin layer of robins egg blue making the sky an interesting play of color." Give your sweetie a little gift of art! It is painted on high quality linen canvas and it is 6 inches by 6 inches by 1.5 inches deep.
