A Poor Man's Collectibles

I would like to welcome Steve Saltus of A Poor Man's Collectibles to our showing. If you or a dear friend or family member decorate in Adirondack - you will appreciate Steve's work of Adirondack pictures and birch bark picture frames. You would recognize Steve's work at other local craft shows such as the November showing at SUNY in Plattsburgh and at the Peru September Apple Fest each year.

What are Giclee Prints and why are they so collectible?
The word Giclee is a French word meaning "to spray". A Giclee print is the highest quality print available today. The process is digital printmaking with a printer that uses minute droplets of archival ink to create prints that cannot be duplicated by other printing techniques. Because there is no visible dot screen pattern the result image has all the subtle tonalities of the original art and are proofed and finalized by the artist eye. This produces exceptional museum quality prints for the art collector. His limited edition and open edition Giclee prints are printed on an archival watercolor paper with archival pigment inks, which are designed for longevity and beauty.

Original Art Greeting Cards (Blank on the inside)

Original Art Bookmarks

Original Art Gift Cards

Briscoe's original art paper items are normally sold at fairs, festivals and markets.

Getting Close to That Time -

Well everyone - we have one month before the showing. Almost daily I receive applications from our talented local artisans. Deadline is April 9 - and then I can start the floor planning. I am very excited about this and have nearly 40 artisans participating in this show. My goal was 50 and it seems like it will be close. It's going to be fantastic!
