The artist's home is more than just a place to rest their creative mind. It is also a "wunderkamer" or "cabinet of curiosities" that offer inspiration to what they create.
In more general terms, if you look around your home now, I bet a vast majority of what surrounds you is a collection objects that denote significant memories. Each item is placed with care and as a result are a reflection of your personality and what you believe as being important.
Last month, I had the privilege of visiting Cora and Eric Brittan's home and studio. After selecting some new artwork to showcase at the gallery, I took in the personality of their home, which has been created through layers of texture.
For your enjoyment and some insight into an artist's wunderkamer and home, I captured 8 images that best highlight the importance of texture the leads to both inspiration and comfort for Cora and Eric.
