Fun Fiber From Colorado by Nina Sampsel



These fun stockings from Nina Sampsel are just the ticket for the overflow from Santa's goodie bag! Made from recycled wool and all sorts of buttons and other sewn objects, these are quintessential pieces from Nina. The pillow has a stuffed mitten sewn onto it with fabric buttons on the corners. Perfect for that winter themed chair. Each piece is handmade and therefore no two will ever be alike. Stop in to see them in the gallery before they're gone! They came in this morning and three have already found new homes.

Friday's Opening Is Fast Approaching!

G Squared's 15th Anniversary celebration is fast approaching. We have already begun the setup - working all day Sunday moving fixtures around. Then moved some of them back to their original location! We will continue this process tomorrow and Tuesday, then we'll start hanging the new paintings on Wednesday. Stop by to say hello and check out the new work. We will be preselling the work, so if you're in the market for some great art, come on in. The work has to hang through Friday night's celebration, but it can be packed up on Saturday and on your wall by Saturday afternoon! This piece is the invitation piece and it's by Kevin Kutz of Bedford. He has delivered it and two other really good paintings - to be unveiled Wednesday. Stay tuned.

Wise Old Owl


This is the cutest little owl from Canadian artist Clayton Dickson. Hailing from Halifax, Nova Scotia, Clayton Dickson hand works the clay to fashion these very charming little figurines. There are about 5 different designs but since each is handmade none of them are exactly alike. SO cute!
