I loved the card. Message inside was perfect (just like I requested) Only comment - the picture seemed too large for the card (glue showing on the side) Next time I will down size the picture. I have ordered many cards from fineartamerica and have been very pleased with the artist selection and quality of the art. Paul Cutright

Artist's Description

Samantha won the fancy-dress competition on board the Shaw Saville's 'Northern Star' in 1974.
For this sandpainting I used gum arabic but was difficult to apply and proved to be a disaster as one can tell from its current sorry state, so fortunately I gave up in favour of a modern water-based adhesive re-inforced with a nylon adhesive used by museum conservationists to restore delicate ancient egyptian papyri and over the past 40 years has given me no problems whatsoever!
The finishing touch to intensify the colours in the sands is a coating of clear spray varnish which permanently seals the picture in place. Furthermore cleaning is so easy - just a gentle washover with a soft brush and warm soapy water will suffice!
Possibly with the exceptions of stained glass and fabric wall hangings, modern sandpaintings have one other unique advantage over contemporary pictures - they do not require glazing or other protection - hence there is no surface reflection and the image can be...

About Environmental Sandpainter and Sand Artist Brian Pike

Environmental Sandpainter and Sand Artist Brian Pike

'FEATHERS ARE MY BRUSHES SAND IS MY PAINT!'

It is since retiring from financial and management accounting that I am now able to devote more time to marketing the results of my endeavours as well as exploring the many...
