Since we can't visit in person, I thought introducing you to Seth's gorgeous work & chic studio would be a nice escape!

A bit about Seth via Boston Voyager;

Armed with a BFA from Skidmore and an MFA from Tufts, Seth’s art career has spanned 25 years and he has literally created and sold hundreds of oil on canvas original works.

Primarily known for his large, bold and dynamic oil on canvas paintings that are as detailed as they are whimsical, and as inspiring as they are inspired, his career has focused on celebrating the beauty, form and rhythm of everyday concepts and objects in both literal and abstract form.

Seth spent his early years living in a small, quaint coastal town just outside of Boston and derives much inspiration for his work from nautical themes, but with a modern interpretation that gives them a fresh, contemporary edge.

His travels and experiences in life have also given him much to draw from, both in terms of imagery and emotion. Seth’s works appear in many significant private and corporate collections around the world

Four Season, One Dalton, "To Live & Dine"

Not sure about you but my fall was a blur - back to school, readjusting to school schedules, and then it was Thanksgiving and Christmas in a hot minute! Holiday time is also the busiest time in the interior design business...so needless to say things have been non-stop. As we start the new year at KMD, I was reflecting on some of the amazing events we were part of in the second half of 2019.

In August, Modern Luxury Magazine hosted a super chic “To Live and Dine” event to benefit the Home for Little Wanders. We designed a table for this glamorous and spectacular event, and were honored to be part of the evening.

Some clips from the coverage in Modern Luxury Magazine above and below.

Johanna Buchanan Dragon Fly, napkin ring really meshed in so nicely with the "garden party" theme.

Kate Spade brass flatware is a nice juxtaposition to the antique plates - simple and sleek.
