For Art-o-mat, I have created a series that showcases tiny pieces of larger works by modern visual arts masters.  I hope that those who purchase my creations enjoy learning about the original artist (through a handy-dandy insert), begin to collect my Mini Masterpieces, and show their friends how smart they are for bypassing the Southeby's art auction prices!

Many modern masters like Wassily Kandsinky and Piet Mondrain felt that art should be inspiring, affordable and accessible to all.  Today, Art-o-mat, a project that reclaims cigarette machines to dispense small work of art, does just this.  For $5 a pop, you get to experience the thrill of putting in your token, pulling the stop, and choosing a beautiful art creation.

I hope that the little canvas that the owner holds in his hand inspires him to look for creativity everywhere, and even to sign up for an art class at a local community art school.  I dream that I can encourage others to find the artist within them and to enjoy the beauty that the modern masters have to teach us.

Please contact me with any questions about Art-o-mat, where these works are available.
