New Artwork

Mary has been working on new prints and thought I would show you one of them. Love the fish!

The blog is back!

Finally! For all you patient followers out there, I am getting back to Mary´s blog - I know, hard to believe!
I do have news - Mary now has a website of her own: www.maryeisman.weebly.com
please check it out when you have a minute.
January and February are slow months and Mary spends her time developing new work which I will post here for you to see as soon as I take some good pictures. Thank you for your patience, keep looking for updates.

2012 Summer Art Class

Mary's PRESS and Studio

Here is a picture that Jesus Jaime Mota (a well known photographer here in Mijas) took of Mary's press, studio and her. She has it in Milan for people to see how she makes her etchings. Lovely picture, isn't it.

If you are interested in knowing more about Jesus Jaime, here are a couple of addresses to connect: http://www.jaimemota.es/ and http://www.info@jjaimemota.es/. He also has a new book out called "Rostros", a lovely photo compilation of faces from Mijas, Africa and Asia. Gracias, Jesus!

Milan, Italy!

I am so slow getting things on here - Mary is working hard at the artisan fair in Milan and I haven't even posted the pics of when they picked up her gear! Well, here are a couple of pics of the day they picked everything up (not much of a guess which is my favorite) and I will follow with a great picture of Mary's press!!! oh, and she is in the picture too.

Great Picture of Mary

A friend of ours from Norway, Nina Reistad, who is a professional photographer and takes genuinely magnificent photographs of cats, took some pictures of Mary on her last visit to Mijas and has generously let us use them! This one is lovely and includes one of our neighbors' two kittens (who spend most of the day on our terrace in front of the studio). Mary has named him Genghis and you can see there is quite an attachment there.

Hope you enjoy the picture! To learn more about Nina, check out her websites at: http://www.nrfoto.no/ and http://www.petography.no/. Thank you, Nina!

Mary Eisman at the L'Artigiano in Fiera 2008 in Milan!

This fall, Mary is going to take her etchings to the biggest artisan fair in the world - L'Artigiano in Fiera in Milan, Italy! Three million people visit this fair each year which runs from November 29th to December 8th this year. Lots of work going on in the studio right now preparing for this event - imagine, Milan, the capital of design! We are all thrilled to be participating and hope to introduce Mary's work to new people from all over the world. Here is the fair website if you want to see a bit more - http://www.artigianoinfiera.com/.



If anyone is planning to visit the fair this year, Mary will be in the European Pavilion - more details to follow.
