My husband recently traveled to China for 2 weeks and for him it was an amazing opportunity.  Although traveling for business, he was able to take advantage of his location and explore a few cities on his own.  While sightseeing in Shenzhen City, he located an interesting artist napping in front of his paintings.  Before you know it,  a painting was being packaged for him to bring home. 

As the office manager, so much of my time at LG Real Estate is spent supporting buyers and sellers in selling a home or choosing the right Cary area house to make their home.  I’ve lived in my Preston home for about 9 years and have learned a few design tips over the years. 

One design tip is to frame your art for the piece, rather than the room. 

So…even as your tastes change or that once neutral paint gets dull and needs a lift, you can still enjoy your art of any price in any room. 

With our new unframed painting, our family packed up the car Saturday morning to run some errands.  First on the list was to drive the short distance to Bev’s Fine Art in North Raleigh.  Bev Kesterson, the owner of the art gallery and custom framing shop, works some weekdays and most Saturdays.  She has the greatest eye for what type of frame works for each painting.  I hardly have to do anything but agree with her and the perfect frame is selected.   My husband and my 2 boys enjoyed the outing as well.  It’s always a great cultural experience for my husband and I to take our boys into a gallery and introduce them to different types of art.  Bev, with her lively personality, is quite the entertainer and she shared a photo on her laptop with my boys of her latest personal art purchase.  A painting that they found quite funny to see…a self portrait of a man, just standing there against a wall.

For any of our Cary, NC clients seraching for new art or reframing current artwork, I would highly recomend a trip to Bev’s Fine Art.  As Bev says on her website, www.bevsfineart.com, she “specializes in making a house YOUR home”.   Our team at LG Real Estate couldn’t agree more.
