Edmonton Interior Decorator | Colour Trends | English Yellow

The sun'll come out tomorrow, So ya gotta hang on 'til tomorrow.Come what may..."

Yes, this weather has me singing the Annie anthem. To combat these gray skies and puddles, I'm looking towards my new colour obsession: English Yellow.

Here are a dozen rays of sunshine to chase away the gray!













Bonus: It's also a hot colour for fashion too!

Edmonton Interior Decorator | My Favourite Art | Pre-Raphaelite to Art Deco

My Top 10 Favourite Pieces of Art

I love artwork, and never seem to have enough wall space to hang the pieces I love. But, my tastes have evolved over the years, so the pieces I do like, have changed somewhat in nature.

When I was younger, I was enamoured with very "romantic" style paintings; from the Pre-Raphaelite and Renaissance era. Then, my focus shifted towards the Art Deco era. Which, still seems timeless to me.

And now, I'm finding myself drawn to more contemporary styles. But what remains constant throughout my life, is my subject of choice. I'm repeatedly drawn to human subjects (particularly the face) and architecture.

What kind of art inspires you?
