Decorative Arts

On a design "field trip" as my friend  Mary, of  The Drapery Shop and I like to call them I discovered this cute little decorative arts studio.  The studio had two large picture windows and a captivating display.  Since it was early in the morning the studio or workroom, I'm not sure which one, wasn't open. The decorative pieces were so lovely I couldn't help but pull out my camera and shoot.  This is what I captured. I'm sure you will agree with me that this artist does excellent work with paint...especially metallices.  The sad part is on my way home a few hours later I passed the shop and all the display windows were covered with brown butcher paper. I'm still puzzled...why?
