Canvas Prints are here!
For years you have been asking for it and now we are finally going to give it to you – Anne Taintor artwork that you can hang on your wall! We are proud to introduce our first three canvas prints, 8”x8” square and featuring three of our favorite captions.
These canvas prints are currently a website exclusive and you can only find them right here. And, since every day we read e-mails from fans desperate to re-decorate their whole house in an Anne Taintor theme (no, really) we just want to say…you’re welcome!
Also, Anne has been kind enough to share the inspiration behind some of her captions and given the Brooklyn office permission to share these on the blog from time to time…let’s start with a favorite, newly available as a canvas print:
“ta-daa! now let’s have a cocktail…”
Anne Says: I admire a woman who can wait until after the roast is done for her first cocktail.
Please remember to celebrate the release of our canvas prints safely and always cook & decorate before cocktails!
Only Five Days Left!
This design was inspired by a conversation with my ever-inspiring niece Meg Taintor, Co-Founder and Artistic Director of critically-acclaimed Boston fringe theatre group Whistler in the Dark… and coffee shop manager extraordinaire. (I remember fondly all the singers, painters, actors, and musicians with whom I waited tables when I was starting this business!)
My favorite review ever (of Whistler’s 2009 production of The Bacchae) comes from Louise Kennedy in The Boston Globe:
This is theater at once returned to its ancient roots and rejuvenated with modern artistry. Somewhere, Euripedes is smiling…
Go. See. Feel. And take your children. Show them what theatre can be.
A year later, I still cry tears of aunt-ly pride whenever I read this!
If you live anywhere near Boston, you are in luck! You still have five chances left to see Whistler’s astonishing production of One Flea Spare. EDGEBoston says:
One Flea Spare is as hot and urgent as any fever – a riveting theatrical triumph.
Go!
