Lisa and I have a habit of creating mock groupings with Festival of Smalls works, before the official opening of the show. Here are a few examples.
Paul Semkuley, of re:source lifestyles, lives in an art filled condo in the sky, with partner Ian Swan. It was refreshing to see the unconventional way much of the art was hung in their space. Whether a piece was placed up high (above a mirror or bed frame), in an eclectic grouping in the bedroom, or against shimmering dark mica fleck wallpaper in the powder room, it was clear that art is a major focus.
I would have dreamed to have grown up in these rooms, surrounded by pretty paintings, silkscreens, antique etchings, and bright abstract works. Art Interiors' owners Lisa and Shira have filled their daughters' bedrooms with original artworks that are sweet and whimsical. Far from childlike, these pieces will eventually find their way on dorm room walls, and in first homes.
