Let's Meet Some Amazing Artists

I’m often asked for my ART sources especially since #saynotoemptywalls is my hashtag - so this month instead of an interview I’m sharing the amazing creatives who’s works grace the Chalet. Even though the images are mine I’ve linked to the artists. Enjoy!

Anna Nord

When I saw this piece by Anna Nord - it immediately struck me - reminding me of Liam and I. Anna is a delight and worked with me to get this piece to me in New Jersey from Sweden having never shipped internationally before. When I opened the package she had sweetly included the floral that’s on the upstairs gallery wall.

I love this photograph for all the reasons - the subject - the age- the color!

Erisha of A Thing Created has many beautiful watercolors in a range of subjects and products. I have a custom notepad with a lady on it who looks like me! I’ve also given them as gifts 1/2 a dozen times!

Mariana Silveira

This nude form from Mariana is fabulous I love it. It’s most recent acquisition.

Erik Linton

I gifted my husband this on of a kind tree ring work by Erik Linton. He loves trees. I enjoy how this is a featured statement piece in our hall.

Allison Ford’s collage and painting are masterful works of color. I adore them - not hanging either allows me the freedom of moving about the Chalet.

Duane Keiser

I purchased two pieces from Duane Keiser one a gift - a terrific whiskey glass and this water with lemon which my son chose. His works makes the ordinary soar!

Aileen Grodzinsky

My sweet friend Aileen Grodzinsky creates these delightful doodles. I love mine!

Lindsay Sherbondy

I love this piece I purchased in support of Eva Love Sherbondy through her mom Lindsay’s business. Eva had a freak accident in August 2019 which resulted in a traumatic brain injury. I say a pray for her whenever this piece calls out to me.

Elena S. Boiardi is a ray of sunshine. Her shagreen ceramics are a source of happiness. I have a memory of us chatting about Grey Gardens a few summers ago and me telling her yes indeed - I was ordering a pretty pink box! My first piece holds a special place in my heart but, I treasure all her marvelous creations.

The stars Stephanie Savage Flynn creates add a festive touch all year long!

Leigh Viner is a multi-talented illustrator, photographer and painter. I keep building my collection of her glorious works. The Hermes Store front (2nd image left) is a one of kind - I am gaga to own! I also have a 4 x 6 of Figure 4 - Fashion Illustration. All her works completely draw me in.


I hope you’ve enjoyed learning more about the works here in the Chalet and being connected with the creatives behind them. Thanks so much for being here I truly appreciate it. Til next time stay well.

Art Inclined

I was struck while watching an Instagram reels the other day by my friend Gladys Tay with her gently leaning this small piece of unframed art against a stack of books and I thought I’ve been leaning art against books, windowsills and well just about anywhere my whole life.

ARE YOU ART INCLINED???

This practice does not come from indecisiveness regarding where to hang said art - I genuinely like the layering and flexibility propped art offers and today I’m sharing friends who do as well. Enjoy! Click image for sources and please check them out!

Do you lean art? I love how many places there are to. I especially wish I had room at the Chalet to set aside a chair to showcase art and of course a book or two!

Til next time friends stay well!
