As creative thinkers, there are so many outlets to seek inspiration from. As art consultants, it's a dream to place works of art in an environment where both the room and the artwork are elevated by the respective other. Virtual installations, like seen above, allow for patrons to experience that unique synergy with an accurate depiction of a perceived reality. -- Keep your eyes peeled for our upcoming December/January editorial in @svpnmagazine highlighting the myriad of benefits and strengths derived from our digital service.

Size and power don't always go hand in hand. This beautiful note is a reminder that even the most refined things in life can uplift, inspire, and emote.

Last night's total lunar eclipse was only visible in parts of South America and the Artic. That said, we found our own representation in the dichotomy between @lawrencefodor's incredible Kôan Boxes. Outlined with 12kt yellow gold, the boxes throw off their own significant glow much like the radiant full moon. Kôan Box Trace VIII • oil, alkyd resin, wax & 12kt yellow gold on wood cigar box w/ embedded items • 10.5" x 8.25" x 2" Kôan Box Cairn XV Black • oil, alkyd resin, wax & 12kt white gold on wood cigar box w/ embedded items • 10.5" x 8.25" x 2 #lawrencefodor #oilpainting #cigarbox #koanbox #dichotomy #color #lunareclipse #fineart #artiseverywhere #seeksunvalley #friesengallery #fineart #abstractart #blackandwhite #yinyang #moon #nightsky 
"The longer I live, the more I understand that life is precious and ephemeral. By looking at spaces in between, we touch the delicate and fragile places in our lives." - @danalynnlouis A beautiful message that reflects both this artwork and the time of year.

@stevejensen55's exquisite new paintings have left us jaw-dropped. Individually, each painting emotes it's own unique and vibrant energy, yet when paired side by side, their unity in form sings eloquently with their contrasting palettes. It's not hard to get lost in the pairs beauty while time steadily slips by.

What would it mean to give yourself a little more love each and every day? We took inspiration and a tone of relaxation on this Monday from this beautiful interior and added @feidisbrow's subtle yet commanding work to it.

Our first significant snow sits delicately on the ground with another storm system inbound. . .Our beautiful ski community looks toward the vibrant energy and enthusiasm around our approaching winter wonderland. @kristinagraceart captures that exact essence with great ease in her engaging and energetic wall sculptures.

Movement, rhythm, and pattern require a grouping of the mind. How we place, stack, or construct something in repetition has an exponential effect on the way we visually process an end result. Concerning this body of work, @lloyd_.martin states: "These paintings reflect some strategies I have explored over a number of years and within several bodies of work. Some of which include staged painting events that occur as an overlay and are contained in a synthetic logic. The physicality of the painting process having the ability to subvert formal intention. Interrupted formalities allowing for unpredicted results. The language of process is reveled and can provide the viewer access to experience the actions and decision making process. Associations of spatial assumptions that occur as curious retinal events."

On this Monday we find ourselves lost in a daydream of multi-disciplinary artist @stevejensen55's latest work. The combination of oil paint applied to wood that is then uniquely finished with boat resin creates both a reflective finish and lossless depth, leaving nothing but fields of imagination.

Fodor's meticulously abstracted works are providing us with a glimpse of what beauty can arise when we take the time to re-contextualize the familiar.

Beauty can be found in the most mundane of material things. Take multi-dimensional illustrator Susan Russell Hall and her end result seen in the work above. . .

POST NO BILLS" . . . or in photographer @bvphoto's case, please do! Found imagery that is distinctly unique to the captivating aesthetics of Paris, Barbara Vaughn found hidden beauty in the details of torn down advertisements that were glued to the city's walls. Other than enlarging the original image to the precise size in which impact and rhythm are at their highest frequency, the end result is unmanipulated and provides an astounding unity of an array of colors.

A note on the quickly turning season and the inspirations that are pulled from our environments that surround us. . . "Several years ago, during an early autumn snowstorm, the characteristic eyes of the aspen trees pulled me from my world and into theirs. Since spending time in that world I have come to realize that time of day, seasons, and various environmental conditions are vital in expressing that human condition. Through painting, I attempt to create what happens in nature when I’m not there to observe it." - @chrisrichterart Chris Richter Reveal 351 oil on canvas over birch panel 48" x 48" 2015 @chrisrichterart #chrisrichter #abstractart #process #painting #oilpaint #minimalism #colortheory #gallery #fineart #morethanmeetstheeye #seeksunvalley #ig_idaho #arteducation #meditation #changingseasons #seasonal #inspiration #fall #nature #environment #surroundings #fallweekend 
Memories can be formed as early as 2 years old. Commonly, first memories are formed at the age of 4 or 5. Artist Christopher Brown states..."When I was 4, I remember meeting a girl in high school and being fascinated by her drawing in perspective, by her drawing a house in perspective, and making her show me how to do it.” Inspired by memory and the inspiration that comes from past experience, Christopher Browns paints with both a youthful nostalgia and an impactful use of imagery.

Painter Tom Lieber states that his work "is centered on human energy.....experiencing, feeling, receiving, expressing." - As viewers, it's easy to think that there is a right or wrong first impression. A black and white reality... Reactionary thinking originates from personal experience. We welcome all responses without judgement or question.

A minimal space with a powerful artwork can turn a quiet room into a masterpiece. Inspired by the turning leaves of this season, we placed @lloyd_.martin's dynamic painting, Large Carbon Riff, into this refined interior to bring touches of the outside beauty inside through this Photoshopped Virtual Installation. Friesen Gallery has perfected the usage of Virtual Installations to create renderings within one inch of accuracy – incorporating lighting, detail and precision. We look forward to making your home even more unique and personal with our impressive complimentary service.

On this Monday, we found ourselves in need of strength, beauty, and an optimistic eye toward the future. @lawrencefodor Fusion works provide just that. He states: "The Fusions culminate in resonant echoes of the past, dissolving, integrating and covergining with my paintings. They are disruptive narratives that speak of a transformed and altered world, a shifting paradigm suffused in an illuminated optimism."
