Eclectic Mix

Melissa Morgan

 In this entry, a large collection of Goya etchings mix with a dramatic pair of antique blue and white ginger jars. Lots of texture with the exposed brick wall and tile floors. If you hang a collection of art with minimal space in between, visually it becomes one large pice of art.

  1. The abstract in the background makes the traditional less stuffy,brings it all together in color. When can one go wrong with blue and white pottery?

  2. Love that. Creative and understated sophistication. The blue and white really stands out amidst muted neutral colors and the vast background of monochromatic prints. So chic.

    1. A very sophisticated space and I love all the texture of the brick and tile and wood.

  3. I love everything about this, especially the Goya etchings. I'm thrilled to see them in gold frames instead of the usual black frames that have become so trendy.

    1. So true - this would be depressing with black frames.

  4. Yikes, hope that is archival protective glass on the Goya etchings. Lots of light on them there. Beautiful space.

  5. I thought nothing could redeem the inhuman coldness of brick walls with stone floors but this scheme does it with intelligence and grace.

  6. How do you hang art work on a brick wall? And it's so perfect!

    1. Well, for one, you have the bricks as a helpful guide for alignment. Also, you’d be surprised how many unobtrusive hanging “nail” type things they have for bricks and concrete. Strong, with making a very small hole to boot.

    2. I'm sure this was professionally done - I had 100% of my art professionally hung - a drill and screws - no big deal.
