CRITTER CLOCKS™
Glow all night, clock art by day.


Twelve-Spotted Skimmer

When we had our first grandchild I was pressed into finding a wall clock that glowed all night. I searched and, not finding an analog “glow-clock” anywhere, decided I could create one. It made a useful and one-of-a kind gift and I enjoyed the process of converting my art into a new form, a different direction. Since then, others have expressed interest in this unique item---and so it evolved. All “frames” and most hands are custom colors. Each clock image is from my original art and is signed by me.

The hands and dials on glow clocks can be hand-painted with a non-toxic glow-in-the-darkoff-white paint which has a slight pale green tint and texture. To maintain glow all night the clock must be hung where it receives either a minute of sunlight or twenty minutes of standard electric light each day.

I can also make these clocks so they do not glow. Either way they add an interesting statement to any room.

NOTE:
The clock is 9 3/4 inches diameter, has a quartz movement and requires one AA battery. It has a plastic cover which makes it lightweight and easy to hang.

Every Critter Clock™ is a custom piece:
1. You may select from many of the works on this site as a background.
2. The hands and numbers of the clock can be either glow (off white) or no glow (dark)
3. A painted frame can be a simple single color, or an artistic.design.

PRICE
The basic no-glow clock with frame is $55 plus $10 for shipping.
Add:
1) $15 for glow painting of the hands and numbers
2) $25 for painting an artistic design on the frame
