I Heart You Tamara de Lempicka, 1898 - 1980
My favorite artist is Tamara de Lempicka (1898 - 1980.) I have many of her paintings throughout my house. She is known for her beautiful Art Deco portraits. The beauty of her work truly enchants me.
This was her studio where she made her exquisite magic.
Here are just a few examples of her work that are my personal favorites.

Beautiful Cincinnati Union Terminal
One of my favorite Art Deco buildings in Cincinnati. 75 years of beauty. Thank heavens they preserved this former train station . Click on the title for more pictures, and to learn about its history.
Welcome to 20th Century Fun
So February 27th can’t come soon enough. This is the day my husband and I get to surround ourselves with vintage modern art, furnishings and fashion. Oh what wonderful Art Deco finds will we find to buy? I have been on a long, unsuccessful quest for an Art Deco nude figurine powder jar. If anyone has found any for sale please let me know where. That is, one that is under $200.00. Art Deco isn’t cheap, that is for sure. I will be sure to post any treasure finds after the show.
