I can't give a full five stars, because I didn't buy anything (and my budget prevents it) but these are some gorgeous, unique works of art, with excellent customer service to boot.
Wandering around the Village, my friend and I noticed this new little store. I had never seen it, which I thought was a touch odd being that I live in the area. I went in and saw gorgeous colors of what I thought were chalk or oil pastel paintings. In fact, they are wools and felts made from recycled plastic bottles and look incredible.
The manager and artist, Alycia, gave us the low down, treating us like we were paying customers when clearly we would not be. She even has a little demo booth where she shows the technique of the soft paintings.
They are gorgeous and run, she said, between $400-$10,000. Obviously outside this Yelper's price range, but definitely a cool and unique idea for those with a little more money burning holes in their pockets. read more
