a work of art // 12 May 2011

If you remember a while back (seen here), I gave you a tour of the home of Jen Ramos, from one of my daily ‘go to’ blogs, Made By Girl. Her home has a very distinctive style with its white walls and monochrome furnishings, and pops of colour to complete the look. Not only does self-professed “driven entrepreneur” Jen produce striking prints in her etsy store, she has now branched into the world of abstract art. Her inaugural collection has a website of its own, Cocoa & Hearts, and the pieces are selling like hot cakes already! Talented lady. Here is a selection of her work:

I have to say, I really like her bold use of colour without form… each one is completely open to interpretation. If I were to display one of her pieces in my home, I’d make sure it was a largely white room with the subtle but effective use of colour that appears in Jen’s home – this would ensure that the artwork would stand out as a real focal point. Here are some examples of rooms that I think would provide the perfect backdrop for a Cocoa & Hearts painting:
