Now Available! Three Works of Art by Joseph Cross

A few weeks ago, we excitedly announced that in April we would be featuring the artwork of Joseph Cross at the boutique.  It has arrived!

Three limited edition prints are now installed in the boutique.  They are so beautiful that it's been hard for all of us here not to take them home... best to get in to purchase before they are gone!

“Treasures At Turquoise Bay”

A limited edition giclee, hand signed and numbered.  This painting won second place in an international Seascape competition and was featured in International Artist Magazine issue #19.

"Cotton Lace"
A limited edition  giclee, hand signed and numbered. This is one of Sharon’s favourite irises in our garden.  It blooms early summer, and it is a ritual to examine the buds daily in anticipation of its first bloom. 

The ruffled edges lend such a delicacy as it slowly unfurls into all of its splendour and grace.

The Bloomin’ View”
A limited edition giclee, hand signed and numbered.  This painting was featured in Pastel Artist International Magazine issue #13 as the demonstration piece for a seven page article on Joseph Cross’ work.

Joseph Cross is not only highly acclaimed and awarded.  He is a genuinely nice person who paints from the heart, loves his country and keeps it real with his accomplished wife Sharon Cross acting as Studio Manager.

He writes: "1978 was the start of my professional career as an artist.  Inspiration is all around me and often in the simplest form.  Capturing the essence of a moment is my desire.  Creating art that inspires others is my dream."

Each piece at the boutique is framed and comes with a Certificate of Authenticity.  
Don't miss this opportunity... they won't last long!

In April: The Works of Renowned Canadian Artist Joseph Cross

At the boutique, one of the very important self-imposed mandates... we like to call it our joy... is to highlight local and Canadian artists, musicians, designers and the like whenever we have the opportunity.  In this case we are overjoyed!

I have been a huge fan of artist Joseph Cross for years.  Working from his studio in Cranbrook, B.C., he manages to capture the imagination through his perspective on how we live and have lived.  His range is inspired, painting environments, people and depicting historic events in a way that makes one feel a part of the time and space they took place in.

Joseph is a "true red and white Canadian" with a love for his country and the people who inhabit it.  Everyday events and objects come to life through his paintbrush and we couldn`t be happier to share his vision.  We are very excited to announce that Apple Box Boutique will carry three limited edition prints that fit exceedingly well with our cottage-chic/shabby-chic decor options.

Each piece is signed and numbered, and has a story of its own.  Stop in at the boutique in April to view them first-hand, and learn more about their origins. Then make one your very own.
