La Bella Vita

 The November issue of Phoenix Home and Garden features a beautiful home near Phoenix that I had the pleasure of  working in.  Here are a few pictures of the work in the finished home.  The panels below the bar were completed on canvas here in Kansas City, the Italian chairs were touched up and over glazed, to refresh them without changing the original vintage finish,  The large mural at the end of the great room took several weeks and help from a dear friend to finish before Thanksgiving last year.  On the final trip, we were graciously hosted in this magnificent home by the owners, a truly memorable experience!  It was a pleasure, as always, working with interior designer Spencer Scanlan of Kansas City-- who's vision came true in the end because of his talents and nature.
