Mountain Crafts

Closed until March….open only on Saturdays from 10:00 AM to 4:00 PM…..if I had to stand out in the weather all day to sell my photographs, I would also be closed until March. Do not allow the exterior to fool you, Sandra is a very good painter who specializes in scenes from around the Smoky Mountains area. We have one of her Cades Cove oil paintings hanging in our living room. We discovered her work in a local restaurant where we were seated under a painting she had given to the owner.  We were so impressed that we just had to find her and see what else she had to offer.  The hunt took several years since she does not have a web site, is not listed in the Tennessee  artist listings, is not in the telephone book, and of course we were doing the search from Ohio which makes it more difficult. We finally found her mother who told us where to find Sandra and we have been steady patrons for many years now.
As I am writing this, it occurs to me that the search we went on is one reason why I have a web presence. I do not want to be hard to find.  I do not want you to have to spend a lot of time trying to locate me. If you cannot find me, you cannot see my work, and you cannot purchase anything.  Ah, we learn our lessons in the most unique ways.. at least I seem to do it that way.
