ERICA'S ART

After being "featured" on Beth's Blog Design Post Interiors, there has been great interest in seeing more of my Granddaughter,  Erica's, Art!
I am so proud of Erica.  She has done outstanding pieces for our homes over the last number of years.

Her first work was done for our Kitchen for a blank space we had over our counter top and lower cabinets.  Our counter tops were covered with glass tiles.  She took these tiles as her "inspiration" and incorporated a tile in each piece!

 



 




 
This is not the best of pictures, but I there is a Tile in the center of this piece....Can you find it?

Eric did another fantastic piece for that home in Norfolk.  I love this one.  She drew inspiration  from the architecture of our building.

When we moved, she did a piece that fit our new home.  We moved from our Norfolk condo to a high rise condo in Charlotte and Erica's inspiration came from the massive buildings with their height  and boldness.

We kept moving and Erica kept doing more and more.  She is fantastic and we had a ball.  I would send her a paint "chip" with our wall color and she went from there......

Our next piece was for our first home in SunCity Peachtree.  She did a beautiful interpretation of "Endless Love"  for our 50th Wedding Anniversary

We have many Asian accessories and treasures.  To celebrate this love of ours,  she did the following,

But it doesn't stop there!
For Christmas a couple of years ago, we received this gorgeous, unique GIFT!!!  It's all wrapped up in a Bow!!!

The following is so outstanding and so meaningful.  I had our family's Christening dress that went back to the late 1890's.  Every member of my extended family was Christened in this handmade dress.  It became apparent that it had reached the end of it's life.  The bodice was so delicate and deteriorating.  I left it in Erica's hands and she preserved it !  I can't thank her enough.  I have some plans with what I will put on the console it hangs over.  I thought I would try and find photo's of my personal family members that have worn this dress.  Frame the pictures and place them on top of the console under the DRESS.  This will take time and I really don't know if I will succeed......I will try!!!

 

I hope you have enjoyed seeing Erica's Art.  I am so, so proud of her.
