New Installation

This is a residential installation.  The tiles are 12″ square, in an abstract design.  They were commissioned by Valerie Dicke of Capital Artfinders, in Washington DC.

We love the way they are positioned on the corner of the two walls.

Here’s what Valerie had to say about the work:

“I want to first thank you both for all of your cooperation, quick responses and action on this project.  I really appreciate it and wanted to let you know that your professionalism has as much to do with my wanting to work with you again as the quality and beauty of the actual tiles.

We all just loved the effect of these tiles on the wall and how well  they work together and with the painting on the opposite wall.”
