Beatrix Ost, aka Trixie...a Charlottesville Local
is the inspiration behind the Olson Twins new line of clothing
"The collection, inspired by the German artist, Beatrix Ost, was made almost entirely in black silk, leather and cashmere, leavened with dark navy python skin, cream, and the occasional, narrow brown belt, the collection focused on ankle-length, flowing skirts and easy, straight-leg trousers, sometimes knotted at the waist, in black silk crepe de chine, paired with straight-cut tops in the same fabric".

Sharon Shapiro is one of my favorite local artists.Sharon recently completed the above painting of Everette Chapman. I love it! The watercolors are less expensive than the acrylic paintings (between $450.00 and $550.00)and would be a great Father's Day gift. Please support our local artist Sharon Shapiro-she is so talented and also a wonderful woman to get to know in Charlottesville. for more information and additional images of her work.
