http://artstheanswer.blogspot.com/2015/02/ft-worth-findsdunnagans.html
Emphasizing art and decoration in daily life. Friday, February 6, 2015. Ft Worth Finds.Dunnagan's. Last year, I spent some time in Ft. Worth, Texas on business. I had to pass by this building almost every day and it really intrigued me! I had no time to stop and investigate and could only get this poor photo through the car window when the light turned red. I would circle the block several times just to get this sad little photo! I would love to know more about it. Labels: Ft Worth iron works. February 8...

Emphasizing art and decoration in daily life. Friday, February 27, 2015. Beth Scanlon of Scanlon Apparati. Is my newest obsession! Her combinations of intricate marbled papers with old maps and drawings can't be matched! Look at the detail of this wastebasket.the front side is actually recessed so the wooden tassels and awning could be added. This is part of the Tiepolo Pink. Collection. (My favorite! This photo shows many products from a design show. I hope you have enjoyed these images as much as I do!

Art's The Answer!: October 2014
http://artstheanswer.blogspot.com/2014_10_01_archive.html
Emphasizing art and decoration in daily life. Wednesday, October 15, 2014. Facelift for a Refrigerator! I love clutter. I thrive in chaotic creativity! But, even I have to draw the line sometimes. My refrigerator had become an explosion of photos, memorabilia and too much stuff. Is this the same refrigerator? You probably see order and nice, clean lines. I see a blank canvas.something my brain is always wrestling with. How far do you take a blank surface in your home? I love the industrial look it gave.

http://artstheanswer.blogspot.com/2015/01/flea-finds-pandoras-box.html
Emphasizing art and decoration in daily life. Sunday, January 18, 2015. After a recent road trip to repair a mural, I treated myself to a stop at one of my favorite antique shops- Pandora's Box. With just the right ratio of cats to clients, Pandora's Box (located in Frankston, Texas) offers a quirky mix of vintage, salvage and reproduction which keeps me digging for hours. This shop has everything from vintage hardware to old paint brushes. To fabulous upholstered chairs. Need a dress made of paper?

Emphasizing art and decoration in daily life. Saturday, January 11, 2014. I think you all know by now that I have a penchant for all things Chinoiserie. I recently was asked to embellish a small powder room done in Gracie paper. The trim and door were white and competed with the scene. I based coated everything in a high green. Gracie wallpaper is very complex with layers of subtle washes of color for their backgrounds. I used three to four washes to make the design seamless. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).
