Dear Friends and customers,
I wanted to share a special update with you. After closing my shop and interior design business in California due to some major health issues.
I moved to Virginia to heal and slow down. My little farm here has become my sanctuary, giving me the space to breathe and rebuild.
During this time, I picked up my paintbrushes again-something I had not done in years. I found myself painting horses, the beings that have been the most healing force in my life. They have carried me through difficult seasons with their steadiness, presence, and grace. My new work is in many ways, an ode to them.
I began to use materials not only from the land, but also from horses-hair from their manes and tails. leather from old bridles, pieces of worn blankets, and everything else that holds their spirit and story. These elements, combined with Virginia's red dirtied natural textures, make each painting deeply personal and connected to the animals who ground me.
I am thrilled to announce the launch of my new website and online store, where I will be sharing my mixed media works. I am also available for commissions, for those who would like a heartfelt ode to their own beloved horse.
Thank you for being a part of my journey then and now. I hope you will visit the new site and continue with me into this next chapter.
Love and Kisses, Anouk
