Jewelry news. Wrapping up 2022 I noticed I've sold buckles to many new places in the u.s. and abroad. I have at least one buckle in all the countries of the United Kingdom except Wales.. A couple of new cities in England now have my buckles walking around and the Eu got a few including at least one in Germany, France, Sweden, Switzerland, and Denmark.... The USA now has at least one buckle in all the states of the East Coast including all of New England plus Pennsylvania. There are several in the Gulf states Texas being the most popular. The West and mid west are more spotty but I added Montana to California, Washington, Oregon, Colorado, New Mexico, Utah, and Arizona on the western list from last year. The mid west has the most states with no Peter Senesac buckles. Only Ohio And Indiana have some. If you live in a state or country not mentioned please let me know so I can add you to the list.

Art news: I'm still trying to make time to tie a bow on 2022 . Organizing photos of the work for the archives and pictures of new work to be loaded to the art website still needs to be completed. I'm considering making prints of some of my sold paintings to add to the collection on Fine Art America so those photos we'll need further editing. The prints will be sold on my art website www.artforpetesake.com. kSome of these prints will be limited edition and as a member of my email update list you will get the first chance to see this new collection of work. I like to keep a chronological record of my creation process and that leads me to yet another project, gathering up all the sketch books of the year to be sure everything is cataloged and recorded. I make small 4 x 6 and 5 x 7 pocket sized books with various types of paper. I use them to make sketches while walking and hiking. some are actually finished paintings and some are for ideas for new paintings. It's not a plan yet but, I have the idea of making small books of collections of sketches. Let me know if that's something you would be interested in. You can see some of my sketches on the artforpetesake facebook page and Instagram. All new work and discounts get announced first to my email list so if you are not on the list you can follow on instabook and facegram
