Portraits

Every now and again, I go through obsessive periods about certain types of art. Right now, my love is the portrait. Don't you think portraits add such a warm, personal touch to a room? Even Will and Grace's apartment had that gorgeous portrait by the fireplace!

So where do you find a portrait for your home? I guess an antique shop, or you could buy directly from an artist. In Rob and Susan's new apartment, a watercolor painting by Kim McCarty hangs above their dining table. McCarty seeks to capture "longing and loss," and I think her soft colors and searching gazes do this beautifully.
