Art Deco Collection
The Art Deco period has been a fascination for me following a trip to Miami a few years ago, where I became enchanted by the amazing architecture designs and the use of metal finishes. I often wonder what it must have been like to have lived during these times. To have experienced the lifestyle, the people, and the music. So, creating a collection which captures the era by using burnished copper leaf and monochrome in harmony was key.
 
Whilst researching art deco reference material, these two amazing ladies instantly captured my heart. So, who are they?
Eleanor Helene Emma Gutöhrlein (18 August 1909 – 7 June 1997) and Karola (Karla) Elisabet Charlotta Gutöhrlein (born 9 September 1910) were German-born sisters who danced and acted together in several 1930s films. They were sometimes billed as "The Sisters G". They were often seen as twins despite being born 1 year apart.

There is so much emotion flowing through this piece. Is it dominance, love, admiration, or simply a natural bond? Whatever it is, you can spend a great deal of time with this artwork and draw your own conclusions. Meanwhile, the copper burnished background with its ever-changing shine as it reacts to the light source, will enchant you further.
