giveaway: mary ann wakeley original art!

I can't even tell you how excited I am - chuffed! thrilled! giddy! - about the insanely good giveaway I have lined up for you pretties today!! Honestly, I may or may not have spent the last few days trying to figure out how I could rig this thing in my own favour without anyone finding out . . .

If you know me, you know how much I love me some abstract art - especially of the vibrant, lush, overtly feminine variety. Well, the gorgeous work of artist Mary Ann Wakeley is all that and then some:







And because Mary Ann is not only wickedly talented but also crazy generous, one of you lucky readers is going to get to take home her gorgeous - original! - mixed media piece Summer Poem . . .


. . . to have for your very own. 

I know. I kind of can't believe it either. 

This 9 x 12 stunner is ALL KINDS of amazing, and I am seriously, seriously jealous. If the winner wanted to package it right back up and send it over my way I probably wouldn't argue with them. You know. Just sayin'.

Wanna' horde this pretty as much as I do? Here's how . . .

To enter, do however many of the following you'd like, and leave a *seperate* comment for each one telling me you did it! That's up to six entries each folks, so the more you do, the better your chances!
  1. Check out Mary Ann's Saatchi gallery, and pin your favourite piece (or pieces!) to Pinterest
  2. Add Mary Ann to your Saatchi favourites 
  3. Tweet the giveaway, or post about it on facebook. Make sure to include a link to this post!
  4. Follow Peonies & Brass on bloglovin'
  5. Follow Peonies & Brass on Instagram
  6. *Bonus entry!* - share the giveaway announcement I posted on my insta feed on your own insta (you can screencap that baby) for one more shot at taking home the gold! 
*please leave a SEPARATE comment for each entry option! If you only leave one comment saying you did em' all, you'll only have one ticket to the rodeo!*

I'll be announcing the winner (picked via random number generator) on Friday, so be sure to check back and find out if it's you!
