I made these little images as a test case for possible art drop offs (if you want to know what I am talking about, look here).
They are done in acrylics/acrylic markers on 4″ x 4″ boards that are 3/8″ thick. I’ve used this support before and I thought it might be good for handling some amount of inclement weather. Because art outdoors, you have to be ready.
In actual use, I put the couple of paintings I’ve set out already into plastic sleeves (I happened to already have some that were a good fit). I think of these as little raincoats.
I also put a note inside that lets the curious viewer know it’s ok to take the art home with them, if they want to.
Claudia McGill and Her Art World 
What a great idea. Very generous of you.
Thank you. It’s fun and easy to do and I enjoy seeing the empty spaces where I put the art, the next time I am there!
What a wonderful, generous gesture
It’s always been a lot of fun. I think I’m going to try some fabric creations, too, but I am still mulling over things.
These are all great and look wonderful as a gathering before they set off on their separate journeys.
Thank you, Most of them are gone now, I guess, it is nice to see them together here for me.
They’re wonderful art ambassadors! What a terrific idea!
I am going to copy you soon, Claudia, I love this idea!
It’s a lot of fun and it makes me feel like I add a little something to the world that is a good experience for someone.
Just think of all that art you have out there being enjoyed by people you’ve never met!
It is nice for me to think about it, and I admit to enjoying the secret nature of it, that no one knows who it comes from.
