Early in my design career, when I practiced in Omaha, NE, I participated in a Symphony/ASID Designer Showhouse. The room was round making art placement challenging so I used an easel. This expert Seattle interior designer was fortunate to have Larry Ferguson add his art with a portrait of my daughter and me in vintage clothing. That’s when I became inspired with black and white photography. In the photo below, you can see the black and white portrait on an antique easel. Note how the wallpaper I selected emphasizes the round room. The desk finish is trompe l’oeil. This project was a very creative exercise.

Landscapes and portraits are design friendly additions to an interior design. They are a reminder of events and times in our lives.
