My home is the center of my universe, with the pull of gravity that gets stronger with each passing year. It is there that I shed my conservative business suit, and release the artist hidden inside. In this small piece of real estate, I get into the artful mindset, letting color, form, and texture guide my decorating adventures.

I like to think of the homemaking process as a journey, one without beginning or end, limited only by my time and imagination. And I’m presumptuous enough to believe that there are many other people on a similar journey to create a home environment that reflects a personal sense of style and soothes the soul.

It is out of this presumption that The Artful Life blog is born. I hope these words will serve as a helpful guide to getting into a creative state of mind, with tips on finding, selecting, and living with the work of talented artists. And I fervently hope that you’ll join in the conversation, sharing your own secrets as we explore the intriguing world of artful possibilities.
