Vintage & Romance
A good Vintage art piece always tells a story. My favorite periods in history are the renaissance and middle ages, early America and the 1920s. I hope you enjoy these paintings as much as I enjoyed creating them. Romance can also be modern. I have done several paintings using ballroom dancers as models.

One of the boldest ways to customize your home is with a signature art piece. The piece you choose will be the one feature to express the right ambiance of your home.

The size of your piece needs to be taken into account too, if it’s enormous add decorations that balance its size without making the room feel too full. On the same note, if your piece is tiny, surround it with small pieces to stop it from getting lost. All a room really needs to achieve some easy kudo points is a well-chosen signature piece or focal point that flawlessly reflects you.
