Julia Purinton has worked as a fine artist and muralist from a studio on the north shore of Massachusetts, and more recently from the mountains of Vermont. The woods, gardens and fields of her childhood memories are just as likely to show up in a painting today as the scene from her morning coffee break.

Beth began her career in art as a staff artist for a publisher of stationery where she worked for 15 years. Her love of all things home and garden made the transition to creating art for the home decor, wall and gift industries a natural next step. She is know for her pretty and decorative style achieved by creating watercolors using traditional drawing and painting techniques, and digitally adding contemporary design elements.

We work with art, so of course we love bright, bold colors.But we also love the simplistic elegance of neutrals and the endless design opportunities this palette presents in the home. Look at some of the most timeless and elegant interiors and you will often see the use of a very neutral color scheme. From subtle grays and creams to rich shades of brown and black, creating a neutral space doesn’t have to be dull.

James Wiens is an avid lifelong outdoors man, having grown up and settled in British Columbia surrounded by dramatic mountains and rivers. His artwork, primarily oil painting, reflects his love of nature and landscapes.

Creating a perfect every-day retreat is as easy as a walk into the woods. Our artists and designers are creating the perfect cabin-chic collections of art. From stunning collections of deer and woodland animals to distressed wood textures and rustic patterns, this trend is all about creating a warm, inviting escape.

Sometimes we look at our spaces and think “what could I do to add some WOW into this space?” Two words. Go gold.
