Jim Shore


 I only have TWO of Jim Shore....they're collector's items [all of his work is] and can become very costly.  I have more Christmas work of his than Halloween.  Actually I have only ONE devoted to Halloween, the other witch is from my Wizard of Oz collection of his craft...




For the week, this will be the last of my Halloween theme...I'll get some more up and ready to publish for next week.  I will do a couple of 'day trips' in the meantime.

  13. I really love Jim Shore's work. Collecting his art is an expensive hobby which I found I couldn't afford..I will enjoy it from afar. I have so many Disney art pieces that have eaten up my wallet!

    Hey, I thought of you today. I got out of work and there were cool clouds in the sky. One was dark and had a heart shaped hole in it. I thought Anni would love this!

  21. I'm showing my ignorance here...I had never heard of him. I went ot his site and read,

    "Jim Shore grew up in rural South Carolina, the son of artistic parents who instilled a love of American folk art. His grandmother was a master quilter who taught him the patience and skill to bring intricate designs to life. Jim worked decades developing his craft, manufacturing his own designs and traveling the country to sell his work."

    I love the bit about patience and skill. Good for his grandmother, and good for him!!

  22. I never heard of Jim Shore before, but it appears he does amazing work! Now, I am wondering where do you store all your witches when Halloween is over? You must have a big storage place! That is what keeps me from collecting one. more. thing. No place to store it or display it. Yes, you should have an open house for Halloween and give a tour of the witches. You could charge for it and that would pay for more! LOL.
