Fashion Art Addiction Part Deux-featured artist Jessica Durrant


Last week I had a FAB moment with a customer who literally fell in love with Lucy Barnes and her Lottie Frank Collection. It's because of these moments that I'm so excited to open my shop every day. The customer, let's call her by the alias Lucy 2, was so excited to find fabulous fashion art in the DC area and brought various Lottie Frank collectibles. Maybe it's the fun and bold colors Lucy uses, but her art is definitely chic and fabulous-perfect for the washingtonian fashionista.
So is the art by our second featured artist, Virginia native Jessica Durrant. Her art varies from colorful landscapes of Italy and France to charming, feminine pieces combining the essence of women and fashion. It's hard not to fall in love with Jessica's works for a variety of reasons: her use of media which varies from charcoal to watercolor, the bright, whimsical color combinations and the classic, beloved simplicity of her subjects. Jessica's love for fashion and art is beautifully obvious. So much so, that we commissioned her to do a bold painting for our seating area! Come and take a look, and see which of Jessica's pieces excite you most!
