Go to Print!!

Sharon Lee Studio wallpapers are one of the few lines that are still hand screened using a labor intensive process.  All the inks are hand mixed, and the screening is done by three men all the way down a 120 foot long table.  I feel so great about supporting and helping preserve such an amazing artisanal technique.  Here are some process images of three of my patterns being printed.

The beginnings pf Floral Stripe in Night Lemon

On goes the lemon-y color that makes this design so fresh.

The finished product.

Toile in Mint.  The background is a horizontal strie on a full screen.

Chrysanthemum in French Grey.

 Seeing the leaves go on was very exciting.

Wallpaper Update!

On the edge of my seat to see my first wallpaper strike off this week! Wish me luck!  The wallpapers were designed by creating hand painted and block printed paintings below.  

3 Pieces at Jasper Showroom for Westweek!

Last night was the Jasper Showroom Westweek Launch party in West Hollywood, as well as, the unveiling of 3 of my new paintings Michael hand selected.  I was in a state of complete shock and excitement when I walked in and saw my paintings hanging on the walls along with other great artwork, and beautiful furnishings.  The biggest moment in my career so far!

Check out the paintings in person by visiting the showroom.

So you can really get a sense of scale here.  This one is pretty big!

(Had to take a celebratory selfie in the powder room!!)

A few pieces in their new homes

I just wanted to post a few images of my artwork installed in my client's homes.

This one was a commission for a baby boy's nursery.  He was born just yesterday!!  Congrats to the proud parents!!
