It takes more than just superior craftsmanship to make a house a home. Distinctive Homes recently partnered with local artists to help decorate our newest model home in The Preserve at Harveston, and what a difference it made! Original art is not only beautiful, but also has the power to evoke emotions, tie a space together, and create a powerful focal point for any room. Meet the talented local artists and be sure to follow them for more great art and inspiration:
Jen Pontti (@jenponttiart)
Jen is a self-made artist and a single mother of two. She paints most of her work with her own two hands, carefully controlling the balance between order and spontaneity in her art. Her courage with color leaves an explosion of diverse complexion that accentuates the fine details of Distinctive Homes.
Sharon Bailey (@sharonfbaileyartist)
Creating art since 2007, Sharon reveals a humble appreciation for the countryside in her work. Her focus has a wide range of subjects—all of them leave you charmed by the beauties of southern-style living. Her paintings bring a sense of nostalgia, even in a newly built home.
Claire Gowdy (@clairegowdyart)
As an abstract and impressionist artist, Claire is an experienced painter. She believes that art is the strongest catalyst for emotion. Her strategically juxtaposed color gracefully implements a novel quality fit for our exclusive homes.
Laura Welch Taylor (@laurawelchtaylorart)
After attending the art program at LSU, Laura started her own business of wedding portraits. She also paints ceramic kitchenware, perfect for adding nuanced flare. If you ever invest in one of our homes, ask her to capture any special moment to keep the memories alive.
Allison Dillard (@allison.dillard.art)
Allison is a natural talent with textured abstract art, using acrylics, pastels, and alcohol ink. She collects the simple things in nature and manifests them as simply extravagant. Her work effortlessly conveys wild splendor that patiently waits for you in our Distinctive Homes.
