LOCAL ARTISTRY inSPIRATION

INTRODUCING ART INTO THE HOME CAN BE TRANSFORMATIVE. IT’ S A POWERFUL FORM OF SELF-EXPRESSION, WHETHER THROUGH MORE UNUSUAL, CHARACTER- RICH PIECES LIKE COLLAGE, WALL HANGINGS AND TEXTILES, OR THROUGH MORE PERSONAL COLLECTIBLES LIKE ANTIQUES OR NOSTALGIC KEEPSAKES. THESE REFLECTIONS OF STYLE, WHICH ARE OFTEN INSPIRED BY OUR OWN LOCALE: THE SEA, SURROUNDING COUNTRYSIDE OR A CONNECTION TO NEARBY NATURE, CAN BRING DEPTH, PERSONALITY AND WARMTH TO A SPACE. WHEN A PIECE OF ARTWORK OR IMAGERY TRULY RESONATES, IT CONNECTS WITH SOMETHING DEEPER, REFLECTING WHO WE ARE AND EVOKING A SENSE OF INNER JOY. THERE’ S ALSO AN EXTRA HAPPINESS ADDED IN KNOWING YOU’ RE SUPPORTING A LOCAL ARTIST WITH THE ARTWORK YOU CHOOSE, WHICH WILL MAKE YOUR INTERIOR NOT JUST BEAUTIFUL, BUT MEANINGFUL TOO.
