The week progressing....(with plenty of excitement)

 Chrisanthemum & Pink Ikat, oil on canvas 40x40cm (Miami)

 Allium Flowers I, oil on canvas 40x50cm (Miami)

Flamingo Flowers & Pink Ikat, oil on canvas, 40x50cm (Miami)




Yesterday DHL picked up the first shipment of paintings for the events at Design within Reach in Miami. I am excited but also a bit nervous. It feels like my children are venturing out into the big wide world. There will be around 15 paintings on show. If you are interested in any of the paintings or if you would like to attend the opening at DWR Coral Gables (31st July) or DWR West Palm Beach (28th August) do contact my lovely agent Eva Roepers of Interdecorations.

The other exciting thing that happened was that Anna Liesemeyer of "In Honor of Design" posted a lovely feauture on my work. Anna is a graphic and accessory designer and loves to share her design inspiration but also promotes the work of kindred spirits.
A big thank you Anna for being a warm and supporting person and for those of you who do'nt know Anna I highly recommend her blog!

  15. I love how you wrote that your art is like your children and your setting them free into the world; so perfect. Your artwork is so full of life and exudes happiness, really beautiful; as are you and your sisters.

    Best of luck with your showing, although I don't think you'll need it. You'll be a great success. Congrat's!

    Cheers ~ Deb
