Gallery Direct Gifting Event

Every year at this time, I start thinking about redecorating a room in my home, something about the colder weather brings out my artsy decorator side. It's amazing how adding a few accent pieces ~ pillows and throws, or a new piece of artwork can change the entire look and feel of a room. 

I recently connected with Gallery Direct, a company that offers limited edition giclee artisan prints at very competitive prices. 

Gallery Direct is the largest limited edition fine art publisher, printmaker and artisan framer in the world. They do it all ~ they find the artists and the artwork, market, and recreate the art themselves.

The folks at Gallery Direct invited me to choose a piece of art to review. I have been wanting to spruce up my office so I selected this abstract by Karen Silve entitled Open Space II. The colors are perfect for my home and the light captured in this piece reminds me of sunshine ~ a nice way to start the work day! I'm not an abstract collector but something about this drew me to it. It really makes the room adding atmosphere and completely transforming the look of the space. It's especially important for a workspace to be inviting and this will brighten up even a rainy day.

Open Space II is available in 4 different sizes, framing optional. I selected the 40x40 gallery wrapped canvas which retails for $249 and was on sale for $187 when I ordered it. The art arrived via FedEx within 3 days! It was well packed and the quality and craftsmanship is superb. I have seen similar giclees in local galleries for two to three times the price. Gallery Direct offers a 30-day return policy. Visit them online at GalleryDirect.com and connect with them on Twitter. Like them on Facebook and be entered to win a $500 Holiday Art Home Makeover.


Does your home need some sprucing up for the holidays? Our new friends at Gallery Direct would like to help! They are generously gifting one Chic Luxuries' reader a $200 credit good toward any artwork on their website.
