“A house tells you so much about a person.”

August 5, 2015

“A house tells you so much about a person.” _{– Nancy Meyers}

Nancy Meyers, American film director, producer, and screenwriter, is at it again in her next film, The Intern, opening in theaters September 2015. On each of her movie sets, including the inviting kitchen in Something’s Gotta Give and the charming Cotswold style bedroom in The Holiday, Nancy works very closely with set directors and interior designers. The sets in her upcoming film are sure to inspire interior designers and spectators alike.

Here’s a sneak peek at Jules’ (Anne Hathaway, The Intern) creative spaces:

Tony Duquette, the late American design icon, is also known for creating spaces that people dream about. Baker Furniture, a line proudly offered here at Mitchell Hill, reinforces Duquette’s artistic legacy by impeccably recreating sixteen of his most iconic pieces. Below are three of his most beloved creations and their original design spaces.

_{Paris Snowflake Screens}

 _{Duquette designed the interiors of this house in the early 1950’s for his friend and client, Cobina Wright. Duquette created his signature modern snowflake screens, figural lamps, side tables, cocktail table, and trophe of musical instruments as a candelabara over the fireplace for Ms. Wright’s interiors.} 

_{Biomorphic Console} 

_{Sunburst Torchere}

 _{Duquette originally designed his now famous Biomorphic Console and mirror in the mid 1960’s for a Bel Air residence. It is shown here holding a collection of sunburst votive holders and many other bronze and gilt metal figurines.}

_Biography

_{Melissa Anderson began painting with only one brush and three tubes of paint. A sabbatical from a law career opened the door to exploring the world around her, discovering the colors and shapes that inspire her work.  Melissa quickly took the hours and discipline of her law practice and applied it to her artistic education through self-directed training with nationally recognized artists including Cynthia Packard, Carolyn Anderson and Alice Williams, reading, studying and frequenting museums and galleries drawing inspiration from Degas, Manet, Cezanne and many Russian Impressionists.}

_{Anderson’s work may be seen at Art & Light and Mary Praytor galleries.  Her work is in numerous private and public collections including The Greenville Art Museum, The City of Greenville, County Bank, McCall Hospice House, and The Cascades. Anderson’s recent exhibition, “Hidden Treasures: South Carolina Landscapes,” hung at the Greenville Chamber of Commerce.  In April 2014,  she was honored to hang a painting in Congressman Trey Gowdy’s Washington office. Anderson lives and works in Greenville, S.C.}

A Closer Look: Photography at Mitchell Hill

May 9, 2015

Here at Mitchell Hill, our painters represent the topmost in innovation, expertise and quality. For our photographers, the criteria is no different. Brown W. Cannon III and Sebastian Smith have different aesthetics and styles, adding to the diverse and dynamical essence to our gallery.

Brown W. Cannon III career in photography has taken him all over the globe. However, as a true artist, Brown finds beauty in the exotic as well as a mile from his home. He observes and digests an encounter, then uses his camera to exploit a defining moment of that experience- a moment that is ephemeral.

Tee Pee: 36 x 24 inches C-Print on Metal edition of 25

Colorado: 24 x 36 inches C-Print on Metal edition of 25

A recent collaboraton with his sister K.C. Lockrem has pushed both of their work into a new realm. Images of horses, schools of fish and flamingos are adorned in layers of fabric, gold flake and magazine clipping which offer an outcome that even surprises them.

Sebastian Smith lives in New York City and Charleston, SC, and divides his time throughout the year shooting between his studios in Manhattan, Paris and Charleston. His photos exude a worldly seduction.
