After years of art instruction, and giving her art as gifts to
friends
and family, Philly became a professional,
self representing,
artist offering her work on eBay. She enjoys working in watercolors,
Prismacolor
pencils,
soft pastels, & oils. She also loves creating mixed
media art which may incorporate her own photography,
vintage images,
handmade and origami papers, vintage ribbon, exotic fibers, found
objects, charms, trinkets,
and anything else that catches her eye.
In 2005 Philly discovered
Artist Trade Cards (ATCs,) or ACEOs (Art Cards Editions and Originals,)
which are works of art, 2.5" x 3.5" in size. Her creations are in
collections all over the U.S., as well as
Canada, the
Netherlands,
Australia,
Brazil and the UK.
One of her
original works is included online at the
Migraine
Aura Foundation website.
Philly's other
passion is photography, and there are many images here for you to
see. Prints are available
on request.
She is also
the
author of
ANRI
Woodcarvings, a collectors guide to the vintage carvings from ANRI,
Italy.
