CA Gift has added three new licensed artists to its lineup for 2016. Three of the company's five licensed artists will make personal appearances at two January venues, Dallas and Las Vegas. CA Gift also will exhibit for the first time at The Southern Link in Atlanta in AmericasMart, Building 2, Suite 1613. In Dallas, Next Generation represents CA Gift at the Dallas Total Home & Gift Market in Suite 1028. Two artists are scheduled to sign in Dallas, Lynn Sanchelli on Thursday, Jan. 21, and Caroline Simas on Friday, Jan. 22. The company will have two locations during the Las Vegas Market, where artist Amy Bremner will be signing. CA Gift is represented by CMA in Building C, Suite 691, at the World Market Center. The company also will have an exhibit in the temporary showrooms at Pavilion 1, P1-2112. Bremner, a newcomer to the gift industry, is participating in her first trade show appearances, signing in both Las Vegas showrooms Sunday, Jan. 24, and Monday, Jan. 25. In her new CA Gift line, Bremner's art is infused on both wood and ArtMetal plaques. The rich colors and folk art style are ideal for the stylized words infused on each plaque. Her Amy Bremner Design Studio artwork is also on a collection of ArtMetal antique-silver pendants that come with an 18-inch bead chain. Sanchelli is also new to CA Gift for 2016, introducing her "Painted Stuf" designs infused on plaques and magnets. The self-taught artist fills her canvas with stylized, childlike folk art and uplifting messages. CA Gift captures her colorful, lighthearted artwork on three plaque orientations and a dozen square magnets. The company introduced artist-designer Simas in mid-2014 with her "Alleluia Collection." Her 2016 additions to the collection include ArtMetal door knockers, bookmarks, photo frames and photo albums. Also new is Botanical Blessings, a collection of ArtMetal plant stakes that add uplifting messages and garden-themed art infused on crosses, hearts and oval-shaped ornaments. Botanical Blessings products come with an 11-inch metal shepherd’s hook. CA Gift is a company of designers, manufacturers and marketers of inspiring gifts and home décor. Products are created in proprietary ArtMetal, an alloy of recycled metals that enable colorful artwork infused in a variety of applications. |
