Hector the Protector New Baby Card from Artists to Watch
This 5" x 7" card is printed on an uncoated, smooth recycled paper with soy based inks. It comes with a color coordinated envelope.
Inside: From our nest to yours. Congratulations on your new baby.
This card features an image from an original hand water-colored etching by C. C. Barton of Denver, Colorado. Printed by Artists to Watch in Minneapolis, Minnesota.
"My imagination is the most important tool in my kit. It informs every aspect of my work, from the elements of composition to the choice of colors on my palette and finally, how I choose to portray my chosen subject."
"I primarily choose animals and flowers and nests for my subjects. Luscious fruits and vegetables are often given walk-on roles on the stage of my creations, adding vibrant color and an element of surprise to the compositions."
"Much of my work is done in a series format. Using my imagination, I develop a concept and continue creating new editions of work under the umbrella of that thematic concept until I no longer feel I have anything more to say about it. I generally have a lot to say about a subject so, for me, this is an ideal way to work. My collectors seem to enjoy it as well."
"My work and ideas come from a desire to make something beautiful. The humor that creeps in from time to time can’t be helped."
"I hope that my work will in some way enrich your life."

Life is busy, but we can never underestimate the power of a handwritten note. All the little social media “Likes” in passing will never compare to receiving a lovely handwritten message from a friend or loved one. When paired with amazing art & perhaps a perfect quote, it helps us to feel grounded, connected, and part of the whole.
We believe that a sustainable environment requires everyone to be conscious about the consumption of non-renewable resources while finding ways to reduce waste. Therefore, we only print on recycled paper! Each printed product we create has the highest post-consumer content available in a sheet that will still produce a high-quality reproduction. By printing with vegetable-based inks our products are less harmful to the environment. All our paper mills and printers are Forest Stewardship Council certified. We respect our environment by recycling, reusing, and reducing our waste at every opportunity.
