I guess it all started with my grandmother, an indominable antiquer with a great flair for decoration. After the completion of her summer beach house on Cape Cod in 1923, she had the simple antique "cottage" furniture she had found locally painted by a decorative painter, Axel Farham (1876-1946). Farham was born in Sweden and learned decorative painting as part of the revival of rosemaling, or rustic painting, and the peasant arts and crafts from the 18th & 19th centuries. |

Welcome to My Website!
If you are like me, you use e-mail all the time... but you also love to use a beautifully designed card to write a note to friends and family. I hope you'll find some of those cards here. There are two collections to choose from - plus an opportunity to create your own collection.
The Art from Antiques Collection is based on details of antiques that have caught my eye for their beauty and charm - many of them from our family's fifth generation summer house on Cape Cod.
The Photographic Collection is based on photographs I have taken of a variety of subjects and landscapes - photographs I think are worth sharing.
You can also create Your Own Collection based on the people, places and things that you love best.
