I feel like Tecumseh is quite fortunate for a small town, to have so many, many talented artists. I made a decision a few years ago to only purchase original pieces of art. I have mostly done that with just a few exceptions and it makes me happy EVERYDAY to see these works of art, to remember who I was at that point in time as well as who I was with and where I was...each piece is a story.
A few weeks ago we attended a street art fair and I sought out the artist that speaks to me through her work. Her name is Pat Cooper. I love impressionistic work, watercolors and pen and ink drawings. I have 2 of Pat's pieces in my dining room and really wanted another "something" of hers. Here is what I chose;
Who does this resemble? Hehehehe! Pat said she would gladly create a custom batik of your pooch if you so desire! You can find her at www.patcooperstudios.com . While this was not a custom piece, it looks so like Pierre it could have been! How fun is doggie art?
This is a new watercolor piece for my kitchen titled "Breakfast". I just adore the color scheme and the whisk! this makes me want to cook!
My greatest "thanks" to Pat for sharing her talent and bringing me joy every single day. I can't think of a better legacy to leave this world.
