At Forre Fine Art in Aspen, Colorado.. Big fun at my opening in 2019. sitting on one of my art benches “Royal Rhythm” with my friend Christy.
It all comes back to the fundamentals of being human.
We all need to grasp and find some sort of connection
to the handmade and to nature.
As the months go on and on and…..
I am seriously missing the connection with my friends and family.
The meaning of home has taken on a much more significant role.
Our homes are where we reconnect, refresh, find peace, solace, heal, and celebrate.
Our surroundings and our design choices connect with our aesthetic, and our memories.
Things of meaning make us feel good.
Likewise, connecting to art and the artist has the human element we crave.
When we live with a particular piece of art with a story,
it then has a soul, more value, and heartfelt meaning.
Those accents make a house a home and full-on joy for the owner.
As an art furniture designer and maker,
adding that human element to my clients’ homes
thru specific design and function creates a special connection.
Understanding my clients’ needs, while creating a piece(s) that
blends with the decor but stands alone as art is my challenge and passion.
In designing, I jump back and forth between artist and maker
until the piece speaks for itself.
The collaboration aspect is something I welcome,
after all, a part of my soul will live in my clients' and collectors' homes and
that is my joy. 🥰
Double up my joy when that piece of functional art will be
used and touched and can elevate the decor.
The basis of joy in the human connection is more important than ever today!
Making choices that offer more connection is a great start.
