Some of you may have noticed that I haven’t been around in these waters for over a year🎣 I’ve been busy with work and am so thankful to private clients and design partners that have asked me to do some truly beautiful and career defining projects this year 👩🏻‍🎨 On the other hand, showcasing and amplifying my work hasn’t felt right in light of an increasingly brutal world we live in. I have focused my attention on those things I needed to better manage - my family, my work, my physical and mental health 🕊️ I still feel that way - this is me showing up for just a moment to say hi 👋🏼 If you’re interested in what I’ve been up to, please DM me your email and I’ll start working on sending you a newsletter that you’ll be able to receive monthly or bi-monthly ✍🏼 In the meantime, here’s a carousel of some of 2024 projects to pique your interest 🎠 Wishing you all peace, health and love in the year ahead 🙏🏼 #decorativepainting #interiordesign #chicagointeriordesign #murals #gilding #fauxbois #surfacepattern #surfacedesign #instaart #luxeinteriors #eglomise #gilding #decorativepainting #2024recap

Limewash beauty 🥒🐉🌿 • A recent completion of a kitchen/living room project for a Lincoln Park condo. We created a custom, light and hazy blue-green color for our client with the help from @dominguefinishes beautiful limewash paint. Trim and millwork were color matched with a Sherwin Williams color. We devised a strategy how to set up the equipment so we can safely move across a 50’ ceiling space with all of the obstacles in place and still achieve a soft, organic look. It was a challenge, but with talented @denisedietzart at the helm, we were able to finish all of the work without a hitch. . . . . . . #studiolunaris #limewash #dominguefinishes #kitchendesign #livingroom #livingroomdecor #chicagointeriordesign #chicagointeriors #customfinish #limewashpaint #womenwhopaint #luxuryinteriors

🌸 🦜🦋🐰🌳 Our whimsical chinoiserie-inspired living room mural was a joy to create from start to finish. Our lovely client was fully trusting of my creative direction and with a team of talented artists we were able to bring to life a dreamy scene that this sweet family will be able to enjoy for many years to come. • A few cherished symbols were painted into the scene - a Luna moth, to commemorate a family member, two bunnies to represent their two adorable, young daughters. This mural has a vibrant palette, we started with an ombré finish of a beautiful blue-green gradient, adding pops of color in flowers, birds and butterflies. • With the help of my talented assistants: @jayfernandezart @feral.clay and @natasha_savic_harvey . . . #studiolunaris #chinoiserie #mural #livingroom #custommural #chicagointeriordesign #chicagointeriors #chicagoartist #peonies #lunamoth #bluejaybird #goodomens #handpainted #wallpaperinspo

⚡️Faux green marble hearth floor⚡️ • I was asked to replicate the look of the fireplace surround that was made with old spider green marble slabs, but first we had to even out the surface that was covered in painted tile. This type of marble has so much layered veining, I could’ve worked on it for a week and still wouldn’t have been able to capture all of its intricate details. My client was happy with the results so I believe we managed to do it quite well. . . . . . . . #studiolunaris #spidergreenmarble #greenmarble #fauxpainting #decorativepainting #chicagointeriordesign #fireplace #marblefireplace

What a privilege to be able to restore a portrait of my client’s mother! 💐 With expertise from my assistant @natasha_savic_harvey who is a trained conservator, we were able to bring back to life this gorgeous portrait and give it many more years of protection and stability. It was painted in 1954 by Frederic Mizen, a Chicago artist and a Sears Roebuck illustrator. The painting had decades of grime, the old varnish yellowed and was discolored in other places. There was water damage, and loss of paint (last slide). We were able to fully clean it, retouch it and put a new coat of varnish which will preserve it so that future family members can keep enjoying it. We restored the frame as well. My client was thrilled with the results! We used a fully reversible technique for all of this work, so that a future conservator won’t have an issue in assessing what needs to be done. . . . . . . . #studiolunaris #restoration #paintingrestoration #conservation #artrestoration #portrait #chicagoartist #oilpainting

LFSH Showcase #3 • Collaboration with @stonetextile was a dream. Elizabeth asked us to create a multi-colored checkered floor pattern that would elevate her Jack and Jill bathroom in the main house to the next level. This room is so vibrant, so alive with unexpected color, pattern and texture interplay. It breaks with the mold to captivate the viewer’s attention and in turn becomes a refreshing new way to design a bathroom space. . . . . . #studiolunaris #chicagointeriors #lakeforestshowhouse2023 #floorpattern #chicagointeriordesign #bathroomdesign #bathroomdecor #checkeredpattern #handpainted
