New York New York {completed}

I’m anxious to share this original piece with you. Featured earlier on September 7th while in production. A papier collé on wood. This piece wraps around the sides with decorative elements. It is two and half inches thick and coated in a thick resin. It is highly polished and (if I do say so myself) looks fabulous.

Available.

Dorothy. Check out Elle Moss Photography out of  Ann Arbor, Michigan.

Dreamy, original, vintage inspired, still life photography … at its best.

We’re also fond of her blog style at diary of a mod housewife.

Happy friday.

We love this rich pumpkin color. I’d love to pair this room (especially the fabulous chairs) with this artwork.

make a wish

My mother has a beautiful expression. When things seem a little overwhelming, she says, “Just wish it away.”

Check out Bucks County Frames, Carl Christensen’s sublime photographs have a most unique vintage feel. His use of color is brilliant. View his site to see for yourself.
