Specializing in aesthetic consultation & display of art/art collections. As a collections manager, I help clients develop their art investments by identifying, sourcing and acquiring pieces appropriate to their tastes and budget.  I can provide art acquisition, advisory, and aesthetics services, in addition to collection investment, development, and management services

If you are a home owner or you represent a corporation looking to build/elevate a collection, I can work with you to get a sense of what your tastes are and how you are looking to transform your space. With more then 20 years experience working with top galleries, museums, private collectors, designers, art consultants, architects, auction houses, and corporate collections, I have a large knowledge of how artwork can add to a space, keeping in mind things to avoid and directions to explore.

We could begin with a site visit or work off of floor plans and architectural renderings to understand your space, needs, and budget. This initial consultation helps me provide valuable insight into the style of the artwork that will refine what you are looking for including location, value, and type of artwork for your project. I have enjoyed collaborating with a spectrum of clients, from collectors and interior designers to developers and architects and art committees, and others involved with art purchases, and I am open to collaboration. We can work to integrate the art with other design elements on the project: mood boards, swatches, and fabric samples never hurt.

Most of my clients need just a couple of works of art to add in key locations in their existing collection, but some build up new collections. Once I have an understanding of what you are looking for, I can drawn upon a large variety of styles and media from a vast and growing community of artists and art resources. From black and white photography to evocative seascapes to modern abstract paintings and bold graphic posters, if we can't find the perfect pieces for your collection, we can commission original works specifically for your space. With this relationship we can assemble a collection for any style.

I regularly attend Art Basel Miami and visit other national art fairs and artist studios across the county to source new and exciting artwork.

Once we have collaborated on an art proposal, I can present pieces on site that give an idea of what art would look like in the space. I encourage everyone to share their thoughts and reactions before completing the purchase. This presentation is important in deciding the final layout.

Whether you know what you want to display or you are thinking about what to get, we can discuss what would look best in your space and work from there to get something not only visually striking, but also reflective of your mission.

Advanced tools, technology, processes, and understanding to help you manage your collection.

The attainment of appropriate and accurate documentation of an art collection is a requirement for the discerning private collector or corporation. A simple inventory can be created, containing the appropriate photographic/digital documentation and proper cataloguing of the works including: provenance, exhibition history and literature cited. A more complex inventory would include a number system with proper labels for each work. Larger collections can also be placed into an art collection database that contains all relevant information on the collection including digital images of the works. Collection management also addresses conservation and restoration issues. Comprehensive condition reports are created for both paintings and works on paper. Industry professionals can be consulted for restoration services to ensure long term preservation of the works. For works on paper, it is important that the matting and framing is archival. Art transport including packing, crating and shipping of the works can be arranged with fine art packers who are dedicated to the safe and secure movement of works of art.

Review & inventory of existing artworks for organization and/or preparation for relocation. Create inventory documentation of location, condition, and insurance. catalog it. Cataloging is an important aspect of collections management as it provides the individual records associated with each object within a collection. This process involves assigning unique identification numbers to individual objects within a collection, and attaching relevant accompanying documentation to the item such as curatorial worksheets, photographs, condition assessments, and accession and/or deaccession information. A catalog is meant to serve as a systematic written or digital record of every object within a collection, and should at the very least, include an object description that will allow for easy identification of an object. Should an object be lost or destroyed, the catalog entry can be utilized as a permanent record of the object and its data. Documentation also helps preserve family history and insure items are successfully passed down to future generations. Proper documentation of pieces minimizes risk, which can lead to lower insurance premiums. authenticity and/or attribution, provenance, historical significance, the importance of the work in the context of the artist’s oeuvre, an analysis of the condition, an understanding of that particular artist’s market, past sales results, and a financial perspective on the cycle of the art market.
