I'm posting my newest 14 art clock designs in the sidebar series and then I'm packing them up to take them to the Etsy @ the Beach Summer Art Sale this Saturday, September 1st. Most of the clocks will be discounted 10-15% at the sale...and, we'll be accepting credit cards! That's right, I purchased a knuckle-buster just for this occasion, so don't be shy!

Art Clocks and Mary Potts at the DIY Alert Blog


I just wanted to say thanks to Sister Diane of the Portland Church of Craft and the Portland-based DIY Alert for interviewing me on her blog. If you want to know my artistic "secrets", you can read the interview here!
Happy Monday!

New Clock Designs in Pink and Brown - My New Favorite Colors

Here are my new pink clocks with a sidebar design. I was browsing the housewares at New Seasons (a Portland health food store) when I saw dishes in a pink/brown/cream color combination. You could say that it grabbed me. Here are the two results, which is not to say that there won't be anymore because I'm really liking these colors!

The Post-Crafty Wonderland Post

Well, we had our first Crafty Wonderland experience last Sunday. We met several crafters that we like and traded secrets about all things craft, art and design. Here are images of "justin with display" and "mary with display". Unfortunately, it's hard to capture the true essence of the "spectacle" gear in such a small photo, but you can use your imagination! Fun!! Oh, and we sold a few clocks and prints, so we celebrated with beer and pizza afterward. If we'd sold a few more, we would have gone out for a real dinner! Anyway, we hope to be back at Crafty Wonderland in October...


Here he is: "The Spectacle"

And, "The Spectacle's Wife"

My next project involves a series of "Bird Women" and I have to get moving to be ready for the Siren Nation Marketplace on November 4. I hope to sneak a few preliminary images in here as I go.

Rebel Rabbit, Sidestreet Gallery Garden Art Show, Crafty Wonderland!

Infinity Arts is keeping busy, busy, busy. Because it's summer, we are taking advantage of the beautiful weather, creating our hearts out and participating in every local show we can muster the energy to drag our 7 foot high free-standing wall to!

I enjoyed the first Rebel Rabbit Craft Fair (Sunday, July 29) immensely and met some really nice artists/designers. Aside from a First Thursday at PosterGarden in the Pearl District, this was my first solo show (solo meaning without Justin or Jonah)!


On Friday, August 3, the whole Potts clan was at the Sidestreet Gallery in SE Portland celebrating the opening of their garden art show that runs till the end of August. I have 3 of my large block clocks (one is a collaboration with my 7-year-old, Jonah) in the show.



This coming weekend, Justin and I will be together at Crafty Wonderland at the Doug Fir in NE Portland showing our clocks, wall art, Justin's cd's and ooh-la-la, some new Ornaments that I've just made and am very excited about! Justin will be dressed in full Spectacle regalia, so come by and say hi! (if you want to know what I mean by Spectacle regalia click here!)

I have some clock designs to post, too, if I can only find the time between shows!
