Up-and-Coming Artists WE LOVE
Today I’m introducing the first in a series of posts about art: what to look for, where to find it and even some budget-friendly corner-cutting resources.
If you have followed our projects, you know we have a thing for color. And for abstract. But let it not limit us, we know there are all different styles of art that make a space.
We’ll start with highlighting a few artists who have caught our eye:
Tiel Duncan
Charlston based Tiel Duncan has a partiality to contrasting deep hues with pastels. In describing her work, Tiel says, “No matter the subject, I strive to portray a balance of realism combined with loose abstraction, causing one to compliment the other.”
Her original works sell in the $3,000-5,000 range, but Tiel offers an impressive scope of prints, as well as products featuring her work (notebooks, wrapping paper, even a coffee table book!)

Mary-Catheryn Baker
If you’re looking to add a little whimsical to your space, look no further. Mary-Catheryn of Copper Corners Art credits her bold use of color and subject matter from her childhood in South America. You see chickens as a subject? Likely inspired by the local foul that slept in trees. Cows? Yup. Reminiscient of cattle that roamed the sidewalks.
In her words, “Each painting that I create is vibrant, colorful, textured, and intricately layered.”
Original pieces sell in the $1,000-$2,000 range, but Mary-Catheryn also offers a robuyst selection of prints that can be ordered framed, on canvas, or paper.
*If you like paintings of adorable dogs, you really must check her out.
Rose Pearlman
What is this gorgeous texture? Rose Pearlman is a punch needle artist. It’s true – she uses yarn to create these beauties. While many of creations are described as rugs… we just can’t imagine stomping all over a masterpiece. Wall hanging, anyone?
If you’re crafty, try her punch needle kits and she offers a series of craft tutorials at Read My Tea Leaves.
David Abbott
David Abbott is based in Bristol, U.K. He uses paint, collage and drawing to create his layered landscape pieces. To view his available art, visit Circle Contemporary art gallery, and to view his past work check out his website or on Instagram. Isn’t the use of color just beautiful?
