Art!

I love art, and especially art from local artists and SCAD grads. I've added these two beauties to my collection. I've admired Katrina Schmidit-Rinke for a while and glad to have two of her "Rinke Dinks" in my guest bath. To see more of Katrina's work go HERE.

Here are a few photos of the art and our bathroom redo. The pictures are pretty terrible but it was the best I could do with the terrible lighting. I know enough about photography to know if the lighting is bad but not enough to know how to fix it!





The pictures really distort the wall color which I LOVE. It's Carrington Beige (part of the historical colors collection) by Benjamin Moore. I know it is only beige but I think it is the perfect beige!

"all swiss"

We bought a new piece of art yesterday. I have admired Katherine Sandoz's work since I first started working at SCAD 10 years ago! A student and then professor at SCAD, Katherine has a broad range of work, but I have always loved her paintings/illustrations of people. This "couple" resides in our kitchen and will greet you when you walk in the kitchen door. We are trying to decide what to name them. We are thinking Sven for the guy and still thinking for the girl. It is fun to make art your own.

New Year, New Art!

Pink Poppies: A Prayer

When Jimmy was born we bought a piece of art to mark his birth with the idea that it would someday be his. We did the same with Cecilia and purchased this piece from Savannah artist and SCAD graduate, Tiffani Taylor and someday it will be hers as well.
