Jim Shore's Award winning Heartwood Creek Collectibles
Wade Keller
Who is Jim Shore? Jim Shore is an artist who has won many awards for his inspirational artwork. After many years of sculpting and eventually an engineer, he decided that he would start his own company. This company, Designs American was originally intended to market his art. This company became so large and so popular that it finally became time when a business partner was needed.
Poised to explode onto the collectibles scene, the business partnership that Jim brokered with Enesco lit the fuse that propelled his Hartwood Creek collection to the top. Given his new artistic freedom Jim went to work designing and hasn't stopped since.
Jim's artistic styling incorporates many elements from folk art to traditional art. Since 2002 Jim Shore has received various awards from NALED. Three times he has been named Artist of the Year consecutively from 2003 to 2005. Jim has also won the 2002 Rising Star award, the 2003, as well as 2005 Christmas Collectible of the Year award, and in both 2004, as well as 2005 he won the Christmas Dcor of the Year award.
The great thing about the Jim Shore Heartwood Creek Collection is that it surrounds many elements of our lives from Christmas Decor to everyday home Dcor that you and your family can enjoy everyday for many years to come.
The shaded lamp featuring a Jazz trumpet player and the Jazz saxophone player are perfect for the Jazz lover looking to add some spice to any room. Both elegant pieces are real show stoppers!
Christmas time would not be complete without celebrating the birth of Christ and elements such as the Three King Figurines in many different styles or the King/Manger scene inspire one to remember the true meaning of Christmas. You can commemorate a first Christmas with a hanging ornament featuring the First Christmas Baby.
Jim Shore loves animals and his Heartwood Creek Collection has numerous animal figurines ranging from dogs and cats to rooster, chickens and even frogs. His birdbaths are highly sought after outdoor pieces that are designed to withstand the element and can be enjoyed year round.
No matter the holiday or the sentiment, the Jim Shore Heartwood Creek Collection can be a beautiful and conversational centerpiece within your home.
