Follow on Google News | Make Mother’s Day Memorable with Modern Day Heirlooms of African-American and Christian Fine ArtJust in time for Mother's Day, Blackshear has released some new pieces that are sure to be popular with collectors.
By: Blackshear Online “One of the driving forces that make Mr. Blackshear’s art so attractive to collectors is its constantly escalating value on the secondary market,” exclaims Larraine Covington Community Director of Blackshear Online. “The Storyteller, one of the most sought-after pieces of all time from the Ebony Visions Collection, has been sold out since 1996. It originally sold for $410 in 1995, and is currently trading on the secondary market for up to $5000.” Just in time for Mother's Day, Blackshear has released some new pieces that are sure to be popular with collectors. Each one is part of Ebony Visions, a collection Thomas says is a blend of Art Nouveau and African culture. These figurines are painstakingly detailed and depict African-Americans in a dignified and uniquely powerful way. Thomas Blackshear’s Ebony Visions™ Fine Art Collection offers art that captures the spirit of life and truly represents black people as beautiful and elegant. For mother, grandmother, aunt, sister and even your best friend, the perfect gift is Sisters Forever: In Elder Years. This figurine is the fourth and final piece in the Sisters Forever series, that started in 1998. Depicting two sisters in their golden years, it's an easy reminder of those ladies who have made a difference in your life. "Her children arise and call her blessed." Proverbs 31:28 Thomas Blackshear's The Blessing, is a poetic portrayal of the intimate bond between mother and child. Mothers, young and old can relate to the time when they held their children so close to their heart. For the adventuresome girl, there's the adorable, Gertie with Geese. Little Gertie skips along behind a mother goose and her three goslings and one can only imagine where they are going on this warm, spring day. Your favorite lady will be delighted when you present her with this newest edition to Thomas Blackshear's Jamboree Parade. And just released, the 2009 annual Christmas ornament, Kitty Cuddle is a real collector's dream. The fourth of six designs in the Comfort and Joy ornament series that was introduced in 2006 and will retire from production in 2011, Kitty Cuddle is popular with those who collect angels, ornaments or pet figurines. Each one of these heirloom quality collectibles is in stock at Blackshear Online and can be delivered in time for Mother's Day. Here you will find an array of African-American and Christian fine art, gifts, collectibles and home décor for the exceptional women in your life who deserve to be remembered everyday.
