WELCOME to Nest by Tamara blog
Hi- It's Tamara. I'm happy you've stopped by, and since 2010 I've been sharing my passion for interior design, history, art, entertaining, travel & fashion. I am an interior designer, textile designer and writer living and working in New York City and East Hampton, Long Island. My musings have taken me to international design, art, antique and epicurean events and I have lots to share. I'm grateful to have been listed as the #1 top design blog, blogs to watch, top design blogs and named and awarded Rising Star of Design by the IFDA NY industry organization. Please feel free to reach out to our team for an interior design consultation at NestbyTamara.com -Tamara

this weekend stop into the Susan Cushing Gallery's art opening in Southampton -- The Good Life -- for one last dance with summer!



 
Last glimpse of summer?

this weekend's art opening at the 
SUSAN CUSHING GALLERY
 in the Hamptons 
may be just the perfect event to attend
to capture that summer feeling and 
hold onto it a little bit more
Susan Cushing's show

I have to agree with the gallery's viewpoint of Susan's work:
"Susan's collections are highly stylized series
of narrative landscapes reminiscent
of the lifestyle photographs
of Slim Aarons and the post-­‐modern environmental style of
Alex Katz and David Hockney.
Evocative of the world of casual elegance, 
Susan's paintings beautifully capture the colors and themes 
of summer on canvas"
When taking in these high voltage versions of dreamy settings, I
 feel the urge to dive right into that sparkling swimming pool, 
and sip an iced tea under that porch.  
The vibrant colors and landscapes are soothing, 
yet are created in an almost imaginary cartoon-like fashion 
making them even more intriguing.
I would love one last dance with summer 
and maybe hanging one of these beauties to gaze upon 
all winter long is the anecdote to keeping the winter blues away!
Hope to see you there!
xo Happy Nesting
