A Legacy of 100 Years, Reimagined Through Art
Some things are simply too special to let go of.
My grandfather, Donald Smith, lived to the remarkable age of 100. Throughout his life, he was a woodworker and created beautiful things with his own hands, including the frames that now hold a very special place in my art collection.
After he passed, I gathered the frames he had made, unable to let his craftsmanship become just another memory tucked away. I removed the glass, added canvas, and gave each frame a completely new purpose, filling it with expressive, energetic abstract art.
What emerged was a collection that brings his craftsmanship and my creativity together. His hands made the frames; mine brought them to life again. Every piece carries a little of his story and a little of mine.
I've thoughtfully curated some of the paintings into sets because I love how individual pieces can come together to create something even more extraordinary. Their colours, movement, and energy speak to one another, creating a visual story that unfolds across a wall. Yet each piece has its own personality and is equally beautiful on its own.
The sets are designed with freedom in mind. Hang them together for a bold, dramatic statement, separate them throughout your home, or arrange them in whatever way feels right to you. There is no prescribed layout, no rules, and no wrong way to make them yours. Some pieces are available individually, each a one-of-a-kind work of art with its own personality, movement, and story. Perfect for adding a distinctive touch of colour, creativity, and character to any space.
Gramps may be gone, but his creativity lives on in every frame.
Two generations. One shared legacy.
