This past weekend we had the show opening for Sarah Blank. I love the use of different frames and that the pieces were created by using different techniques, the textures adding a level of interest. My favorite is 'Seafaring Heart'. At first glance it reminded me of my boyfriend's grandma as it looks like her when she was younger. There are cardinals flying away from her and his grandma loves/collects cardinals. On top of that, her brooch is of a ship and there are ships/sea in the background (her husband who passed recently was a navyman). Each piece seems to tell a story. All pieces will be available for purchase in store and select pieces will be available online.
MICHELLE: Settled in Beacon, NY by way of Rochester and Brooklyn. I opened a consignment shop and gallery called Blackbird Attic in April of 2010 and I'm still goin'. I make soap from scratch and try to pretend I am crafty and can dress well, although I hand off a lot of projects to my husband and I'd be okay living in pajamas.
ALLIE: I’m a sucker for a good sale and my credit card limit has seen better days.I love styling and putting outfits together and I’m a firm believer that you don’t have to spend a million to look like a million. You’ll find me most days wandering around my town, sipping a Chai and day dreaming about writing for a living.
