All of that to say, it was so fun to reconnect with Carson and get a peek at what she has been up to lately. She has gotten back into painting, and I'm so glad she did!
 |
| I LOVE LOVE LOVE this gorgeous painting of what I'm going to guess is the James River. |
She focuses on nudes, landscapes, and abstracts.
 |
| I love the way she uses color in her nudes. |
These are just a few favorites I pulled from her website. When I visited her at her home in Richmond, I could not help but snap a few pictures (with my phone…definitely not the best quality to capture how truly beautiful it all was!) of her lovely home!
 |
What is truly amazing is that so much of what you are seeing are DIY projects Carson has completed. You know you have got some skills when it looks like you paid a professional big bucks when really you whipped it out on the cheap!
 |
| That credenza? She lacquered it herself! |
 |
| Not wallpaper my friends…Carson hand stenciled these gorgeous walls. Do you spy that nude over the potty? Love that dark background... |
She has a show coming up at Ruth & Ollie in Richmond on October 1 from 6-9 pm. Her home is bursting at the seams with beautiful pieces that will be on display there. As if I needed another reason to miss Richmond…
Lucky for me, I got to bring home a little piece of Carson with me to California. Check out my very own Virginia-inspired landscape!
I love it! The bright colors are so happy!

| (To anyone checking out my bookshelves…of course I've read Systematic Theology, cover to cover baby..where is that winking emoji when I need it?) |
Be sure to check out Carson's website and check out her work at Ruth & Ollie starting in October!
