How a concept can just fit together

When I was participating in the Artisans on the Beach event in Swanage until January I thought I needed to offer a range of art smaller than my main stock of A4 and A3 pieces. I offer miniature and mini canvases with easel stands but these lack the presence of a framed piece. I hadn’t …
