My husband and I are passionate about collecting! . Before we started hanging paintings on our walls in 2008 we would exercise our creative energies by arranging timeless objects in our home. We call these small collections vignettes. The arrangements create an atmosphere or state of mind. Vignettes often reveal the personalities of the people who live in the home. While we are passionate about these pieces we are not attached to them. Sometimes we move the objects around to create new vignettes. We often give the objects away. It gives us pleasure to help friends and family create their own vignettes.
