Natalie just returned from her 2-week epic trip to the American Craft Council Retail Show in Baltimore and the Palm Beach Fine Craft Show.

  Natalie’s recent mural is now hanging on a rock wall at a residence in Hawaii. Natalie and Nick flew down to install the piece and to take a much-needed vacation.

  This Tree of Life, is beautifully mounted on a painted wall. We love the look of the darker paint behind the mural.    

One of our clients recently commissioned this piece to give his wife for Christmas. Natalie calls it Sunset.
