Micro Painting Monday - 18

Our local artist network, Thyarts, arranged Open Doors 2013 yesterday - and I was one of the 20 artists that opened the doors to the public.
My husband and I have brainstormed quite a lot to create the perfect way to display the micro paintings, and finally we came up with this, and I'm so happy about the result. It's both nice to look at, and it's possible to lock it, so that no one can remove a set of paintings without a key. It can hang on a wall in an exhibition or be placed on an easel like here.
The large ease was placed by the entrance, and smaller table were on tables.
 
 A few not yet mounted on display, and I squeezed in 3 of the sets I couldn't find room for elsewhere...

 
 
 My workspace....
And finally  examples of framing 1, 2 or 3 sets with passepartou -  these are part of my private collection.

It was a lovely sunny day, but only 3 cars/5 persons unknown to me + 7 invited friends found their way to my part of the arrangement.

But I have been invited to show my paintings in a huge exhibition with 70 artist from all over the world, sculptures and other kinds of art, the website is not yet ready, and the name is "Grænseoverskridende Kunst" - it runs from May 25th to September 14th  - and I'm SO honored to have gotten the invitation!
