LACQUER LOVE

I love these lacquered blue walls in this Robert Couterier interior (I'd ditch the Chinese figure, though)

This color is soothing and the shine is perfect!

MORE BLUE AND WHITE

TWO NEW CHAIRS with chevron patterned backgrounds - a retro gothic style chair and a classic Swedish style chair. Find them here.

HURRAY FOR THE RAD, WHITE AND BLUE!

Blue and white is a time-honored classic, add tile to that pairing and it gets even better.....

Portugese company Boca Do Lobo has recently introduced this amazing new cabinet that is a limited edition piece made from an expertly curated ensemble of hand-painted tiles. How's that for a unique piece?  

Not your typical generic cabinet - very cool!  

A real work of art straight from Portugal, traditionally known for their phenomenal legacy in tile design. 

Have an excellent weekend and Happy 4th of July holiday to all of my U.S. readers and Happy Canada Day to my friends north of the border!

NEW FROM MY STUDIO

How was your weekend?  Mine was especially enjoyable.

Temps in the 70's, sunshine, some great company, sushi and a little bossa nova & relaxation.

Here's the latest from my studio, an original painting of more blue and white porcelain. This piece was painted on gessoed board with painted blue 1 inch edges. It's all ready to hang or set on a shelf or table. If you don't want the original, a print is also available in 2 different sizes - all are here in my shop. I know that a lot of you have requested more blue and white, so here's proof that I am listening and aim to please!!

NEW TEACUP POSTER

This is my first new print of 2011.

Features my painting of a blue and white teacup along with the quote "You are just my cup of tea". Background is a great shade of light blue - lettering in bright white.

Perfect as a winter pick-me-up for yourself or the special people and tea lovers in your life!

Available here.
