Recently, the boyfriend and I decided that we wanted a new family portrait. Being the completely…read moreunconventional people that we are, we decided a Caricature was the way to go. What better place to have this done than the French Quarter? We set out to Jackson Square, in search of the perfect Caricature artist for the job. Across from the Tabasco shop, we found Andrew Wilkie waiting for us. After looking at some display pieces, he sat us down and the drawing began. He was exceptionally friendly and easy-going. Our squirmy daughter was the first to be drawn, as she obviously had the shortest attention span. Andrew Wilkie had enough experience with the kiddos to make this suggestion. After sketching the 3 of us, he applied the color and finishing touches to present us with a fantastic (and hilarious) work of art. I now need to frame it and hang it in our living room. If anyone finds themselves in need of a caricature painting, this guy is fantastic. We even recommended him to a couple of tourists who happened to see the painting in our hands on the walk back to our car. From looking at his website, I think he does a variety of other types of art too - not just caricatures - but that is what I have experienced in person, so that's all I can review.

Upon walking in the gallery, we were greeted by Tracey, the gallery owner and artist. I was surprised to meet the artist in person as this is rare as many galleries have their curator greet gallery goers. After Tracey introduced herself, she gave me a history behind the gallery and the types of art that I could find there. As she spoke to my partner and I, she opened a bottle of champagne for us to enjoy (insert happy dance here). I found Tracey's work to eclectic, fresh, funky and personal. She is the type of artist who is passionate about her craft, and it shows. As I walked through the gallery to select a piece, I ended purchased one that Tracey did entitled 2DAY IS 4 REAL https://www.esomart.com/shop/p/untitled-16-x-20-5 As my partner and I were tourists in NOLA, she sent to the painting to my home in TX so I didn't have to take it on the plane or arrange to have it sent myself. Tracey was communicative during the entire process, and I am so pleased with work of art. I do intend to buy another from her in the future. A million thank yous Tracey! #supportlocal

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder and liking art is always subjective. However, if you don't…read morelike a least one of the shadow boxes crafted by Rachaela DiRosaria, the creative force being Feral Femme Art, you probably don't have a creative soul. Many FFA works are in shadowboxes of reclaimed wood, often with birch wood cut-outs and hand-painted in acrylic. I would describe the content as part circus side-show, part Great Depression-era American advertising. Or, as DiRosaria puts it, "Welcome to the Freakshow." Just to give you an idea, amongst her creations you'll find: A girl with fire hair ("Ashes to Ashes"); a girl with fire in her belly ("Combustion"), a girl with nothing in her belly ("Hollow Girl"); the perfectly named "Tattooed Man," a Two-Ton Woman Dog-Boy ("Anomalous"); a torso-less woman biting on a dagger ("Revenge of the Handwalker"); a woman boxing a chicken ("Skirmish"); a repurposed, old-fashioned corded "trim-line" phone with a WWII Bible ("Dial-a-God"); an "Block-Head" man full of nails ("Why?"); and a Corn Dog with cheese on top, looking very much like a yellow-orange Trump combover saying F*** You ("America"). Also check out her "Peek-a-Boo" series, shadowboxes with hinged doors and keyholes. Along with the aforementioned "Ashes to Ashes," "Combustion," and "Anomalous" being part of the collection, there's a woman with a dagger through her skull ("It's Fine"), the "Lobster Girl" series, and the currently sold-out lizard girl at the "Southern Swamp State Fair." I also liked the ones categorized by Rachaela as Minis: A slithering snake, a tooth, "Welcome to the Freakshow," "Authentic VooDoo Supplies," a heart, the devil, etc. If you don't see her in the Big Easy, and don't want to just see her wares online, I recommend at catching her at an art festival near you. Along with her web site, you can see her latest works (and latest festival appearances) on her Instagram (https://bit.ly/2M3aMWQ). Great stuff! I hope you like it as much as I did!

After talking with Danielle, I actually opted for both -- one set for my office and another for home. They make a pretty great conversational piece and showcase two of my favorite beings in the world (our dogs, Ralphie and Beaux-Bleu). To say she is talented is definitely an understatement, but more importantly, she really wants to give customers exactly what they want in their paintings. I would 100% recommend Danielle x Design Co. and have already commissioned other portraits (both puppy and people) as Christmas presents for my best friend and in-laws.
