Don't Buy With Your Head - Buy With Your Heart

Bill Double is an artist at The Artists Hand, and a person very involved in the life of the arts in Indiana County. He and his wife Linda have a wonderful art collection, so I asked Bill to tell us why they buy art. The following is his response.

Don’t buy with your Head – Buy with your Heart

Bill Double; Wayne & Washington, $225

Art like theater, dance, great movies, a good book, and great music should tell us a story, touch and inspire us.  I make Art and buy Art.  The artist’s goal is share something special with the viewer. Great Art tells stories that touch your heart.  I buy art to share a piece of what the artist saying.  That way I get to share these special stories everyday. I give Art to share with someone that which touches me. I make Art to share beautiful places, things and stories that I am touched by.

Bill Double; Landscape?, $50

Here at The Artists Hand Gallery, we have a wonderful diversity of paintings and photographs to touch any heart. There is representational work, figurative work, and abstracts. Prices range from $35 to $1000, well within many budgets. Stop in to the gallery sometime during these grim winter months and find a piece that speaks to you, take it home and let it lift you out of the depths of winter.

Latest 'Spro Stuff

The Gallery has been as lively as usual, but this week we'd like to take a moment to give you the scoop on the 'spro—espresso, that is! We've always considered drinks of the coffee realm to be artistic in their own right, so we've come up with daily specials to showcase the art of coffee and the never-ending dedication of our ever-aspiring baristas. 

Hot Tea Tuesdays: $2 pots of tea or tea to go! Ask about our special cold-remedy blend if this          

weather has gotten to you.

Wired Wednesdays: $2 pour overs! Pour overs are hand-drip coffee that baristas make on-the-spot and fresh when you order it! It's smoother than drip coffee, and you can get a better sense of the tasting notes of the particular blend you order.

Thirsty Thursdays: It's still here! $1 espresso shots and Americanos. Half the price of the norm! A very cost-effective and tasty pick-me-up!

Pay-it-Forward Fridays: We all have those days (or weeks...) where things just don't go our way. Maybe you've forgotten your wallet, or didn't bring as much as you need. We've got a special fund for moments like these, and it was made out of the goodness of our customers' hearts. Add to our fund, $1 or more, and get 10% off your drink order!

Specialty Saturdays: Our baristas all have a favorite drink they make, or maybe one they'd like to make more often. If the barista's recommendation sounds good to you, get 25% off! 

Keep up to date on our Espresso Bar blog as well! It's brand spanking new!
