Huge Hamid Family 30x40 Collage $429.99

This is the Hamid Family. I met Aasia,  the mother at her home and we went over style ideas and colors. Her home is tastefully done in an amazing structural contemporary style. She knew exactly what colors she wanted intermixed in the collage. We picked out vivid oranges, red, burnt yellows and then mixed all the cool hardware and frames in. She had seen examples of other collages I have done off the blog and she loved the "off the edge" look that I do with the frames. Aasia wanted lots and lots of structure and lines into the collage plus all the fun embellishing that I do on everything. All the pictures are blinged out along jewelry and coats that they wore. All of the girls are separately showcased and then a couple different shots of the girls grouped together as well. I put in some beautiful quotes about sister's and the main family quote up at the top. It was so fun working on this, a first in the contemporary style for me! It will be a smashing hit in their home! I can't wait to see it hung up! Thanks for the experience with you Aasia!

Last Name Cobb Collage Art $499.99 36x36













This was done for my friend Shannon Cobb. She saw something similar to this hanging in my home with my last name (Yeager). She wanted this to be in her home too so we started scheming right away with colors and fabrics and fun cute details. Each of the letters of her name, showcases someone different in the family. "C" was for the dad, husband extraordinaire, and money maker hero Charlie. "O" was taken by Shannon and her loves in life. She adores many things but loves loves loves the beach in Hawaii. So I went with that idea and put real sand on the bottom for a wonderful textured element. "B" was then taken by her son Cael. All of his fun interests were incorporated into his square. The last letter is also "B" which was graced with their little angle Brooke. She loves all the fun details of being a princess right down to cupcakes and crowns. Shannon also wanted to put somewhere on Brooke's space a tiny piece of her baby blankie. Those are the sweet touches that makes the project turn into personal beauty. The price includes the frame and the choice of background fabric. The price however will be subject to change depending on how long the last name of choice would be.  This particular project cost $499.99 and the overall size of the frame is 36x36.
