Living with Art // 15 Interiors with Timeless Black & White Artworks
There is something about black and white that is always appealing. Even for those that love color, the right balance of blacks whites and grey always look great and provides a perfect backdrop for a livable space. The combination of opposites can be graphic with high contrast or it can be soft and calming when it includes varying shades of gray. Regardless of the intensity, the lack of color can work in many interiors. Black and white artworks can either compliment a quiet monochromatic space or can provide a subtle contrast to a more colorful room. Here is a selection of RE artworks - and 15 different rooms to inspire using timeless artworks in shades of black, white and gray.
Living with Art // The Many Colors of White
It's March, it’s still winter but the light has changed, and that feels good, the mornings are brighter, and the days are longer. The color white is about light, there is no absolute white, there are the many shades that reflect what is around it. This time of year, the reference to “winter white” is to a warm color, whether in fashion, or home or art, the yellow undertones feel cozy and at the same time fresh, just like the March light. Cool whites have a touch of blue, and there are many shades in between. The beauty of white is that it’s uplifting, it’s literally lighter than the heavy tones we are accustomed to all winter. The beauty of having white in artworks around you, is that it brings that lightness home...
RE:view // A Reflection of 2015 Installations
As the year ends, we are reflecting on the busy year we had at Romanoff Elements. A highlight that comes along with working on different projects are the people we have met along the way, and the friends we have made. We’re grateful for both our clients and the many artists we work with. As we start the holiday season, we want to wish you well and have you join us to recap some of our projects and installations from the past year. Our work is about finding the right artworks for our clients, bringing them together with the talent and creativity of RE artists to complete the beautiful spaces in their homes and offices.
Holiday Pop-Up // Shop Art & Give Thanks
This fall has been beautiful, everyone has been enjoying the extended season filled with vibrant colors of the foliage and warmer than usual weather. With this long autumn, the holiday season is all of a sudden upon us. Thanksgiving is in just two weeks, and Romanoff Elements is happy to be participating in an event to give thanks within our community. My family and I will celebrate 30 years in Armonk next month, our children attended the local schools and we have shared almost as many years of friendship with our local friends.
A Different Perspective // About Men & Art
With Fathers Day approaching, I was thinking about appropriate artworks for men. This led to some reading on the differences of men, women, what they like and why there is a difference. The third Sunday of June each year acknowledges and celebrate fathers and fatherhood. I have to add that this day came about after Mothers Day was established, a twist, honoring the women came first! Families celebrate the gifts of fatherhood in many ways, but with our consumer culture, there is focus on what to buy for the dads in your life. Artwork is a great gift, and as I have written before, it’s timeless, personal, and is available at all price ranges. A few picks from RE artists
