CHRISTINA TWOMEY ART PARTNERS WITH KYRA TYSON PHOTOGRAPHY TO CREATE INSPIRATIONAL 'LOOK UP' SERIES12/17/2019 Christina Twomey Art + Design is excited to announce our new partnership with Kyra Tyson Photography along with our 'LOOK UP' series launch of multi-dimensional cloud art. We've utilized the 3-D capabilities of layering epoxy resin to build 6 cloud-layers in our first of many pieces in this original series. In essence, the multitude of layers allows for the clouds to truly pop-off the wood panel so it appears as if you are actually looking into clouds up-close. Our intention with this series is to provide clients colorful aspirational & inspiration artworks that bring happiness & a sense of calm to their spaces. We plan to partner with our top interior design partners (both in commercial and residential spaces), as well as our TV & movie set-design connections to bring 'LOOK UP' to homes, resorts, restaurants, doctors offices, your favorite shows & movie sets, and more. We will soon be launching 'LOOK UP' on Saatchi Art and Singulart, as well as with Griffin Gallery in Minneapolis, MN. TO INQUIRE ABOUT 'LOOK UP', CONTACT US BELOW OUR YOUTUBE VIDEO... Bobby and I are absolutely ecstatic to announce we have received an artist nomination for representation by the prestigious Paris online gallery, Singulart, which showcases a talented & diverse array of both emerging and established artists across the world.
While based in Paris, France, it's reported over 92% of sales are to export markets, growing rapidly throughout the EU and across Asia. This tremendous honor to join their platform of incredible artists is by invitation-only, and we're very excited to get started. We will publish our artists page once complete.

We had the most fabulous week creating art together both during our mini-resin geode classes Tuesday and Wednesday evening, and, of course, I was busy creating this big piece for their downtown office-loft entryway throughout the week days.
It was such an honor (and also a little nerve-wracking) to create this artwork live, in their agency! There was no room or extra days to fix screw-up's, especially when it's all caught on-camera haha! Fortunately, everything came together beautifully, and we were all able to celebrate over a few bottles of wine & beers! A very special thanks to Rise and Shine and Partners for this awesome commission opportunity. Bobby and I cannot thank you all enough! We love you guys! Our hearts are exploding with appreciation for everyone’s love & support shared at our open house this past week at Griffin Gallery, as well as the VIP soirée hosted by Martha O’Hara Interiors + Griffin last Thursday. We sold two artworks to a fabulous couple and had a plethora of inquiries for future corporate partnerships, PR, commissions and events! We are beyond thrilled to be represented by Griffin Gallery and look forward to exploring these opportunities together. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ It’s so incredibly awesome for us to return to our hometown together, and to be surrounded by all of you who have watched our little art hobby grow into a small business over the past few years. From the bottom of our hearts, we can’t thank you all enough! We still have 5 remaining artworks hung at Griffin Gallery so please make sure to drop-by to see ours, along with the many other incredible paintings & sculptures showcased. For inquiries on purchasing available artworks or for custom commissions, please speak with Deb Mack, artist & co-owner of Griffin Gallery or her incredible staff! www.GriffinGalleryFineArt.com 5222 W 78th Street, Bloomington, MN 55435 info@griffingalleryfineart.com 954-844-9884 ![]() We are thrilled to announce we successfully delivered another commissioned artwork to a home in Del Mar, California. We met the new collectors a few short months ago at the pool while vacationing in Palm Springs, California, and found out they are avid art collectors and absolutely love investing in small businesses. We're truly enjoyed building our new friendship and are so grateful to them for trusting us to create this beautiful artwork. 'OCELLUS' spans 40" x 80" and is made of over 13 layers of resin, in combination with alcohol inks, pigments, acrylic paints, and of course...lots of love. ![]() Christina Twomey Art + Design is thrilled to announce we've been invited to participate at Griffin Gallery's November private showcase hosted by the award-winning design firm, Martha O'Hara Interiors and the prestigious Griffin Gallery.

This artwork is composed of driftwood we collected from Big Sur, California during the weekend Bobby proposed to me - so it's truly a special piece of wood in our hearts. The artwork has gorgeous, large Brazilian amethyst crystals inlayed into the wood, which were then sealed with resin. The driftwood is hand-painted with an Ombre combination of micaceous oxide, gold, and violet acrylic paints, and were also sealed with resin. We're excited to reveal this piece has garnered tremendous attention & inquiries - which lead us to brainstorm several new line-extensions & opportunities to expand our business. Lots more to come!
