Inspiration
make it artsy

This season is all about inspiration, particularly from the art masters. We're not only inspired but we take that creativity one step further with new materials. We begin with a design that pays homage to Sigmar Polke, a contemporary artist that was known for using varied materials even glass. We make a stitched canvas. The Joe Rotella is back, taking a page from Sigmar's book by using found objects like wood and license plates to make a modern birdhouse. We'll finish up with May Flaum and the post-impressionist era and a lesson on being inspired by art but styling it in your own way.
