Maybe it's my European upbringing, but I've always believed in the power of art and music (which is another form of art--may be a post for another day).

Art has both a silent voice and a grand impact. It's deeply intimate and personal. Two people can look at the same painting and feel different emotions.

I have to get to know my clients before I can help them choose artwork. Their art isn't just about their style but who they are as people. What's more, what purpose will the room serve? That also informs the choices we make about art.
