a new addition!

through the blogging world, i discovered the amazingly talented Amanda Talley. her work speaks to me. its perfection.

i looked at art for above our dining room table for over a year. but nothing seemed to compare to ms talley’s work. so, a couple of months ago, i took the plunge! i commissioned a piece. i sent her pictures of the space (and some colors i liked) and she ran with it! and the end product is amazing. i finally hung it yesterday and it completes the space (i’m only sharing a little section of the room because the rest is not “share” ready).

i couldn’t be more happy! thank you amanda! here is a picture of her working on the piece

the finished piece hung up! (taken on my blackberry, sorry!)

and here are some more pictures of her work in beautiful spaces…enjoy!

this is pretty much the best idea ive ever heard. its like gilt groupe or one kings lane, but for art. you can buy art, from incredible artists at a discount (30% off), for a limited time.

this weekend, one of my favorite artists (more to come on her tomorrow) was featured. amanda talley. i wish i had known about this sooner, as the sale ends tonight. but hopefully they will feature more artists soon! will you keep you updated on this.
