I've been following
Tiny Showcase for years, but this is the first time I've thought to blog about them! If you haven't heard of it,
Tiny Showcase is a small print shop in Rhode Island that sells high quality, limited edition prints from talented artists on a smaller scale, so you don't have to be rich to collect some great art. In addition to this, a portion of each sale goes to the charity of the artist's choosing, so everybody wins!
From the
Tiny Showcase website:
Each week we pick a new piece of tiny artwork and turn the work into a limited-run print production. Each run is printed on archival Hahnemühle German Printmaking Paper. The archival ink is specially treated and sprayed, giving it an archival lifespan of over 60 years.
You sort of need to see the end product to get the full effect, but each piece really is a beautiful specimen.
Beginning in 2005 we introduced a new pricing structure where a percentage of the money from each print sold is donated to a charity chosen by the artist. This raises the print price slightly, but now the artist, as well as their favorite charity, benefit from each piece sold.
