You Adore Me

Many years ago an interior designer suggested I look into the Dwell magazine marketplace as an outlet for selling my artwork. When I reviewed contemporary interior design it was pretty clear that abstract pieces were the top choice, and that I'd need to adapt to create something that would -- as said disparagingly in "Hannah and Her Sisters" -- "blend in with the sofa." The result was two paintings that were Calder-like in their swooping forms and were met with enthusiasm, but the surprising amount of work that went into both meant they were priced beyond what most people were willing to pay. Such are the economics of style.
