ART TIP: HOW TO AVOID GLASS GLARE (+ more water lily art)


 













elliehansonart This is a stand-alone water lily painting, not part of a set. It's 12x12" and mounted on top of a larger white frame. ART TIP: HOW TO AVOID GLASS GLARE! To mount art this way, you have to basically take the frame apart including the side spacers. Move the glass to the bottom resting on the white matt board. Put the side spacers back into the frame. Then mount art on top of the glass (which in this case is actually plastic). You can see there's a bit of glare on the glass but none on the art. Voila! Glass glare problem solved!

Introducing: Vancouver City Abstracts! No fancy camera required...
























elliehansonart  Introducing: Vancouver City Abstracts!  I've never shown my photographs publicly but I'm actually a bit infatuated with these rainy night shots that I took 5 years ago with no fancy camera. Sometimes opportunities present themselves at the most unexpected times. I arrived very early for a designers/stagers meetup in a cold, wet, & stormy January evening in downtown Vancouver. It was brutal looking for a parking spot that was close enough so I wouldn't be totally drenched when I walked in. While driving around, I was suddenly awakened to the abstract beauty that the rain created while dancing with all the colours & lights everywhere creating amazing reflections. I became mesmerized by it & it transformed my outlook on the terrible storm to pure joy & delight.

"Water Lilies 4" Now we have a Set/4!


elliehansonart "Water Lilies 4" could be part of a set/4 which are all the same size and mounted onto a larger white frame. Great for bathrooms, hallways, offices, reception areas, salon spas, etc. ART TIP: Display them vertically one on top of another or horizontally one beside another, or arrange all 4 together as a wall collage.
