What Speaks To You?

I'm not sure what it is about fashion portraiture that I'm so drawn to…

I just am. 

It's a little slice of what makes me, ME.

Instead of buying the same IKEA art prints as everyone else, consider purchasing a collection of prints from an independent artist whose work actually speaks to you.

Don't settle for something that just "does the job" in order to get something up the walls. Tune in to what lights you up. Chances are that if there's a subject matter you're particularly drawn to, there's an artist on Etsy or Big Cartel that offers affordable prints.

Wouldn't your rather look at a collection of artwork every day that makes you feel positively giddy, reinforces your personal style and makes you that much prouder of your home? 

Use your individuality in your decorating. It's the best asset you have!
