Southern Home (Spring 2016) Article & Commissioned Paintings

Abstracts in Blues, 24" x 24"

Excited to share Southern Home magazine's (Spring 2016) issue which features my paintings in this a beautiful home.  It was a wonderful process working with the home owner to get input and direction for the commissioned art I created for the space.

The vibrant interior was inspiring and dramatic and made for an easy translation to the canvas.  Commissioned paintings are often requested by decorators or home owners because of a need for a specific canvas size, color coordination with fabrics, or a memorable place a patron would like commemorated in a painting. Creating a painting for anyone is always a treat for me.  Always rewarding for me to get to know the home owners and goals.

The owner ..."commissioned a local painter, Martha Spak, to do a piece for them that was inspired by a scene they often view of the sun escaping into the clouds in Kinsale, Ireland.  Weller adds that the same greens and blues in this painting are now seen throughout her home."

So grateful to be included in the Southern Home magazine layout and pleased I was able to help complete these paintings for this project.
