Checking in - January 2016

Hello again January!

Normally I'm not an abstract painter, but I do tell my clients I will paint anything! (and that includes their furniture too) This one was commissioned by Dayme Walther for one of her fab Dallas design clients.  Was so much fun to do - especially the request for gold leafing peeking through. Once I started with the leafing I wanted to spread that stuff on everything in site.  It's addicting for people like us.  You know who you are and you know what I mean.  Added this painting to the "Etcetera" in my gallery because it is definitely not my usual subject, but I enjoyed it.

Uptown Country is getting ready for a big makeover and a space move at Richardson Mercantile.  I am taking over the space of Sarah at R & R Design Works - which means the new spot comes complete with reclaimed wood chevron walls! This is what it looks like now (Uptown Country sale on the left, my new space on the right, my baby helping sweep.) Now somebody please explain to me my this kid HAS to have a broom with him at all times!?

Ok you see those walls now?  Want them in your house?  She can do it for you.  She also has a way cool new pop up shop at the redone Dallas Farmer's Market where I picked up one of these, for my sister of course.
