There was a cabin that I was decorating for a discerning client that needed one more piece of art to complete the look I was going for.

I found a wonderful watercolor painting that fit just right. It had a lot of mossy green colors and there was a lake with a lake house.

The artist turned out to be Charles Dickens Wader. He is a well known artist from New York.

Increasingly more "social tourists"are saying "no" to cocktails by the pool in the Caribbean, the exclusive cruise ships of the Balearic Islands, or five-star hotels in major U.S. destinations.

And "yes" to learning first-hand about the realities of the developing South or Eastern Europe, and sharing the lifestyles and the problems of local communities.

The smallest paintings that I found were on a panel bracelet. The paintings were of Indian and Near Eastern rulers.

The paintings were put in an openwork gold frame set with seed pearls. This piece was created in the early twentieth century.

Another yellow painting that I liked was Yellow World by Karen Khachaturov. There were a lot of contrasting yellows in it. I could see yellow lemons and a beautiful yellow flower.

The children's art paintings that I ended up choosing for the hallway were all from the same artist. The artist specialized in mini paintings and they were all so simple and beautiful.

They actually fit with the owner's style. I had each painting put into a simple frame with no matting and hung them all along the long hallway.

The first Asian botanical painting that I bought was Vietnamese. It was one of a series of twelve paintings that I bought that were created by Vu Viet Hung. I have them all over my home.

These oil landscapes by Vu Viet Hung are stunning. These Asian botanical paintings really set a serene tone in my home. The subtleties of the colors and the simple themes go so well on my walls.

Mixed Media Art Auctions

The fun part of mixed media art auctions is that you just never know what you'll find. I found a pebble art piece from the 1960's that featured a bare-chested chariot driver cracking a whip.

The piece also had three horses. The medium of pebbles was very interesting. Another interesting find while I was looking through mixed media art auctions was a mirrored wall hanging that represents the Manhattan skyline.
