Scott Stanley from Spin Your World on Etsy

** How do we have 2 co-sponsors today?**

Last April Scott Stanley's Kickstarter project was featured here. Scott creates & had dyes silk flags, bags, hats and other fabric items. (You can find some of these in his Etsy shop, http://www.SpinYourWorld.etsy.com. Included in the April blog post was a random drawing for one of his hand dyed drawstring backpacks.


Mixed media artist Pat May won that giveaway! This generous lady not only made a donation to Scott's kickstarter campaign, she also decided to share her colorful prize with a new lucky winner,  making her  the co-sponsor for the random drawing on 7/26. 


Many thanks to Scott & Pat for donating prizes to this month's giveaway! And thank you (in advance) to everyone who takes the time to comment. It is your interest in these random drawings that keeps them coming!

2 more abandoned art pieces

Pyrrha ACEO left inside this loaner book

"Art is never finished, only abandoned."
-Leonardo da Vinci

Here are two more art trading cards left during last week's beach holiday. The top ATC/ACEO has been tucked into this book abandoned by previous guests at the Barefoot Beach Resort. There are several novels floating around for guests to borrow, so it may be awhile before anyone finds this one.

The Kiss ACEO left in elevator

The Kiss was abandoned in the elevator overlooking the Southernmost Links mini-golf, Indian Rocks Beach. The kid decided this would be a good drop off spot and he was right -when we peeked in the lift 5 minutes later it was already gone.

Have you been following this blog or art abandonment group on facebook? If not, find out more info by clicking here.  By the way, the fb group has over 4100 members & growing.

"Not Picked Up"

Secret matted print (abandoned)

Couldn't pass up abandoning some art on this UPS box once I saw the "not picked up" sign today.

If it is still there, you'll find it outside the 7-11 in Indian Shores, Florida.

Blustery Day ACEO left on a very blustery day

(abandoned) ACEO at bus stop 

Today the wind snatched this ACEO out of my grasp & sent it into a shrub down the street. Seemed appropriate for an art trading card titled "a blustery day". I decided to pull it from the leaves & abandoned it at trolley stop 3100 in Indian Shores, Florida (across from the public beach access). 

The Art Abandonment project is now up to over 3,100 members & growing! It also has a typepad page which explains the details. Would like an invite to the FaceBook group where you can (1) share photos & addresses of art that you have abandoned +/or (2) see if any addresses are near you & scoop up some great stuff? If so, pop me a message & I'll send you one.

If you are on the gulf beaches this week, keep looking around - I'll be dropping off a few more pieces over the next few days
