New Original One-of-a-kind Star Baby Art Doll by Elizabeth Ruffing

“Sigrid the Star Baby” is making her debut. Sigrid is a newly born star. She is jointed at her shoulders and hips so she can lie down or sit. She is made of 100% cotton which was gessoed, painted with acrylic artists’ paint, then sealed with matte varnish for protection…just like I would treat an original painting.

She has an adorable pouting baby face, with one little tear on her cheek. Please click here to visit Sigrid’s web page.

I put my picture “Moon and Star” her hang tag because it goes so nicely with her turquoise and gold onesie.

Prints of “Moon and Star” can be found on our web site, in my Etsy shop, and on Ebay.

New Fairy Art on Our Web Site

We have two new giclée art prints at Ruffing’s.

and “Moon and Star”. Both are fantasy pieces and are taken from my original watercolor and pen and ink paintings.

When I painted “The Moon Sings a Lullaby Full of Poppies and Katydids”, I was imagining what kind of lullaby the moon would sing, if the moon could sing, to help people drift off to sleep. I thought of the sounds of katydids, which I’ve always loved to listen to on summer nights. And I thought of the poppy field in “The Wizard of Oz“, which caused Dorothy and her friends to fall asleep on their way to The Emerald City. So, this is a picture of the moon singing us all to sleep with a lullaby full of poppies and katydids.

In “Moon and Star”, I’ve depicted the moon as a woman with butterfly wings and the star as a little girl, both descending toward the horizon at dawn. The watercolor sky has shades of turquoise and blue and a little bit of yellow all dropped into a wet background for a soft effect.

Both giclées are a standard 8.5 x 11 inch image size on 9.5 x 12 inch fine art paper.

Iris, pansy, and rose floral art prints by Elizabeth Ruffing

Pansies floral watercolor art paintng by artist Elizabeth Ruffing

I made up four floral giclée art prints from my watercolor paintings of pansies and iris flowers.

Each one is 3.5 by 5 inches image size on 6 x 8 inch fine art paper. I chose a standard size 6 by 8 inch paper size to expand framing options, as these will fit in either a standard 5 x 7 inch or a standard 6 x 8 inch size mat and frame set, with a white border showing.

Each giclée art print has a decorative floral border surrounding the central image. Above is “Pansies”.

“Purple and White Iris”

“Peach Iris”

“Pink Roses with Gold Border”
