I was at my in-laws over Christmas and saw these amazing prints at their house. And then saw them again at my sister in law’s house. I FLIPPED over the beauty of these incredible rickshaws from India and come to find out it’s the work of family friend Greg Vore. Andrew’s cousin sells them on her site Circa Trade, but you can contact Greg directly to order one as well. I cannot get over the way the white backdrops enhance the intricate details of the decoration and colors of these beauties!

Wednesday, February 1st, 2012Sponsor Welcome: John Holt Smith
Monday, January 9th, 2012As a painter (occasionally) myself, I am so excited to have the fantastic John Holt Smith as a sponsor on the blog. Finding a fantastic piece of art for a space can be the thing that brings it all together! I not only love the abstract, colorful work of Smith, but find the process he uses so fascinating. See, a stripe is not just a stripe- it’s an abstracted landscape stretched out into a gorgeous color pattern. Check out how it’s done!
And the various outcomes! These pieces would look at home in a mdoern or traditional setting (ya know, to mix things up a bit!)
Check them out in a space! So awesome!
His Oculus paintings are done in the same vein…
His work was featured on the cover of the Neiman Marcus Christmas Book in 2006 and guess what? He’s been known to paint commissions of “portraits” done in this manner- in case you weren’t into hanging a stuffy oil painting of yourself and Muffy over the mantle!
