Know When to Hold em

$165.00

In the grand game of life, much like in “Know When to Hold ‘Em” by Kenny Rogers, we often find ourselves at a crossroads of choices that require thoughtful consideration. This song encapsulates the delicate balance between strategy and spontaneity, reminding us to exercise care and deliberation as we navigate our unique journeys.

“Knowing when to walk away and knowing when to run” serves as a powerful mantra. It’s about the confidence in making that calm exit when a situation no longer serves you, versus the spirited and resolute decision to break free from something stifling your potential. Life offers us these pivotal opportunities, and recognizing them is key to claiming our future.

Let this artwork inspire you to embrace the beauty in both caution and boldness. With every imperfectly perfect moment, we have another opportunity to create the life of our dreams, so put this piece on a central bookshelf and be reminded, “There’ll be time enough for countin’ - When the dealin’s done!”

FREE US GROUND SHIPPING. Other options also available at checkout. Please note, carriers only provide estimated arrival times and can vary. I will always select the safest and fastest method to ship your precious artwork!

MULTIPLE ITEMS &/or INTERNATIONAL SHIPPING: Shipping estimates may need to be updated based on multiple artworks ordered (size/weight of parcel), and/or exact location of delivery. Variables I can’t account for may result in additional fees needed to ship your package safely.

I will cover additional shipping costs if they are near the estimate! If they are substantially higher, I will give you the choice to pay the extra or receive a refund (see ‘Shipping/Refunds’ in the footer).

Outside US, UK, Canada: If you can't complete your order, I might need to give you a real-time quote first. Just message me, and I'll respond quickly!

I use high quality, professional grade acrylic paints and mediums, oil sticks, as well as top quality substrates and acid free paper. I make most of my own collage papers using the same paints as the final paintings. If there is vintage collage, it will be layered over with protective UV mediums to ensure the color stays as true as possible. However, the natural aging of the vintage papers is to be appreciated for its imperfect beauty.

Each painting receives an isolation coat prior to a wax finish, or UV varnish in matte, satin, or a combination of both. Cradled panels will be finished in a polyurethane or hand-painted to showcase the art. Frames are finished in a poly finish as well, or hand-painted and will be described as such under Description.

All artwork comes ready to hang with d-rings, coated wire and is signed on the front and/or the back. Each piece also comes with a certificate of authenticity.
