When we shared our state love art from Poppy and Pinecone, you all had an amazing response.
The Poppy and Pinecone shop is filled with fantastic watercolor paintings of states, countries, quotes, and more. There’s something for everyone. But, if you have something specific in mind, Elisabeth can make custom piece, too.
Elisabeth makes beautiful art, but she is also very accommodating, sweet, and talented.
I love the colors in each design.

Wendy
/ July 22, 2011I have poppy and pinecone as a favorite. I have been thinking about a texas pictures and I really like the world map you have shown above. I am trying to do a wall of interesting prints and have found a few things on etsy….just don’t know if it would look funny to have two of the same on the wall……any thoughts (since you are the experts)?
ourhumbleabowed
/ July 22, 2011Hey Wendy,
Honestly, I think if you have a good mix of different art with a variety of sizes, two on the same wall would look just fine. The other option is to get two or three 11 by 14 prints to place in larger frames to round out the grouping and keep it cohesive. But, I think all of Elisabeth’s work is amazing…
