Life in Your Space | A Home as a Living Work of Art

Some spaces are not simply lived in—they are lived through.
This home is one of them.

It is a vessel of artistry and embodiment, lovingly shaped by the woman who calls it hers. A painter of acrylics, encaustics, and watercolor… a former architect, a knitter, a Greyhound companion, a collector of beauty, a traveler of the world, and a gracious welcomer of newcomers. She hasn’t just created in this space—she has become it.

Her paintings grace the walls, not as decoration, but as extensions of her spirit. Every room carries a note of intention—charm, play, warmth, and a devotion to the quiet rituals of a well-lived life.

The home radiates authenticity and aliveness.

It holds culture, story, softness, and strength. It feels as though the walls themselves have absorbed the creative breath of years well spent—brushstroke by brushstroke, memory by memory.

Out back, a detached studio continues the rhythm—a space for expression, expansion, and stillness. It, too, is steeped in the sacred act of making.

To be in this home is to be reminded that life is art. That home is a mirror. And that embodiment is something we can cultivate—in space, in movement, in the everyday beauty of simply being true.

This is not just a home.
It is a living canvas.
A quiet masterpiece.
A legacy of love, and art, and presence.

We stage and style, move, fix, and flex over houses—our own for sure, and for our clients. And when our brain and our brawn are filthy from it all, we like that mellow, pretty life.
