Art You Should Consider Buying Today (Or At Least In The Near Future): "Magnolia Pod Study 6", Abby Leigh Johnson

Local fiber artist (dare we say "legend), Abby Leigh Johnson, creates beautiful, unique pieces. Her magnolia pod studies are interesting, intriguing, gorgeous, fun. And they're pieces of art that is affordable...which is sometimes half the battle as an aspiring art collector. 

Group multiple pods for a great cohesive look, or tie in her work with other SCAD/Savannah artists for a local tribute wall (we're working on one!). 

"Magnolia Pod Study 6" by Abby Leigh Johnson is available on Etsy. 

Art You Should Consider Buying Today (Or At Least In The Near Future): "All Dressed", Cedric Smith

"All Dressed" by Cedric Smith.

I am always so profoundly taken by Cedric Smith's work. Such an emotive, vibrant, touching quality that evokes both nostalgia and a modern, almost pop-art vibe.

"All Dressed" is available on You're Welcome Savannah's online boutique and it is such a great piece. Definitely a showcase piece of art for a living room or foyer...something you want guests to see and appreciate.

Don't worry if you get sticker-shock when first buying art. It's an investment...and an important one. If you are drawn to a piece of art, then it's never a bad decision to purchase. Not only does it make your home look nice, but it also appreciates to an extent.

Art You Should Consider Buying Today (Or At Least In The Near Future): "(Turtle Island) Wrack Line", Katherine Sandoz

"(Turtle Island) Wrack Line" by Katherine Sandoz.

We're big art lovers...and wannabe art collectors...and there's a lot of great art out there. Sometimes it can just be hard to find. Our inaugural Art You Should Consider Buying Today (Or At Least In The Near Future) features probably our favorite artist (local or otherwise) Katherine Sandoz's "(Turtle Island) Wrack Line".

This brilliant water-based media on 18"x18" panel is a perfect compliment to any space. We'd love it in a white-on-white Scandinavian-vibe space...light wood floors, white walls, neutral furniture. The yellow is phenomenal and Katherine's exploration of color theory is beyond reproach.

Buy it. Start your collection. It will make you happier/more thoughtful/maybe smarter (faster/stronger/better in bed/etc. ?!) and your walls will thank you. Such a great piece!
