Artist Claudio Bravo

You know how you spot an image and then follow a link and by the time you're all done you're not sure how you arrived at your final destination. Well, I spotted this beautiful bedroom in Sara Ruffin Costello's latest article for the WSJ and just had to see more of this home. Unfortunately, I couldn't locate more images online, however the wild goose chase led me to discover the work of artist Claudio Bravo.

Bravo, a Chilean artist, lived and worked in Morocco. Here are but a few of his amazing hyper-realist masterpieces. Are you as fascinated as I am by by the perfect depictions of everyday objects. I literally want to crawl into one of these beautiful paintings.

Bravo Mr. Bravo, bravo!

I love this room!

That's all. Carry on.

p.s.-Erin, look, pink walls!

Moroccan Dreams

I never tire of images from this beautiful, exotic locale. However, what I especially like about this home is the seamless intermingling of the Moroccan feel with a more industrial vibe. Nicely done.

Can't Stop Thinking About...

This quiet corner.

This decadent snooze spot.

No. Words.

The composition of color.

The mix of the door, the floor, and the blanket.

The spectacular waterfall counter, the stools, and the glass wall.

The cacophony of color.

That reminds me of this color explosion.

This sconce. Brutally beautiful.

This leather deliciousness,

and this one,

and why not make it a hat trick while we're at it.

This carpet that reminds me of

this bathroom that I've never stopped thinking about.

Sending happy thoughts your way for a fabulous weekend!

Just look at these spaces. Indoor and out, the ultimate sweet spot. I've got that Calgon commercial running through my head, you know...take me away...

These make my inner hippie-gypsy-nomad so happy. You?
