My friend Shaari Horowitz is featured in Traditional Home Magazine!
Shaari hand paints THE most beautiful wooden bowls which are “roughed out” of local wood by her furniture maker husband, Alistair Jones. Believe me, they are out-of-this-world gorgeous. Shaari works with several shapes and sizes and will do custom work.
Here is the cover, and specific page, from Traditional Home:

To really whet your appetite, I happen to have two more images of Shaari’s work.

Shaari and her husband, Alistair Jones, share studio space in an old converted barn in Northwest Connecticut. Aside from being extremely talented artists, they are two of the nicest people you would ever want to meet! Take a look at their site and you might just consider starting a collection.
