Mark the Date! Ghoultide Gathering … October 2

Michigan’s Ghoultide Gathering has grown into one of the premiere Halloween-themed folk art shows in the United States. The small, etlite group of artists represents the best of the best. It’s a rare opportunity and a delight for the eyes. The artists create incredible Halloween one-of-a-kind art that might just make you gasp with pleasure!

Wear comfortable shoes and bring your checkbook! The crowd gathers early … but remember, when the gates open … it’s a race to favorite booths. The time to buy is when you see it! He who hesitates will probably find his indecision has cost him a Halloween treasure.

Collectors arrive from all over the US and Canada. Join them for a true Halloween Artist Spectacular!

Celebrate365 will be on hand at this fourth annual show.

Artistry of Poland and Rucus Studio Collaborate …

German Santa with Lantern

You love his folk art … now you can collect his glass ornament!

Scott Smith (Rucus Studio) has collaborated with Artistry of Poland to create a glass ornament based upon his full figure German Santa candy containers.

The 5″ moulded glass ornament is finished in red satin paint.  The Polish carver has certainly captured the essence of Santa’s stern face!  Santa’s face is painted with a porcelain-bisque like finish that brings the character to life.  He bears an arm load of holiday toys and a tradition German-style lantern to guide his way from house to house.

Scott’s artwork shows Santa wearing a flannel robe with fluffy wool trim.  Note the special “glitter” on the coat & hat that recreate the look of Scott’s concept.

This ornament just arrived from Poland last week.

If you love folk art and ornaments, you’ll want the Rucus Studio “Traditional Santa” for your Christmas tree.
