you can go home again.

the new issue of covet garden is online and it features the home of an artist named kara who left Toronto more than 25 years ago, but recently returned and fell in love with the city all over again. i’ve fallen in love with Kara’s amazing converted warehouse space and all the colorful touches she’s added to the industrial look of it. those rugs and throws and all the great texture they add make me rethink the lack of color i’ve got going on in my own space right now, hmmm? her loft is full of sunshine and amazing furnishings that balance dynamic modernist designs and homey handmade objects. to visit the entire space check out the latest issue of covet garden.














































Funny, I just posted my painting- a Navajo inspired design and then saw this article. Thanks for sharing, Victoria. This is my biggest inspiration right now :-) http://www.shannonkaye.com/minding-the-repeat-week-5/?utm_source=Newsletter+Signup&utm_campaign=b6266ac9e9-March_5_2012_Newsletter3_4_2012&utm_medium=email
