Founding

Brownstoneshopper was founded on a love of unique and beautiful things and a belief that art and life are synonymous. Art is unique. Art has therapeutic value and that aspect is present in artistic expression and enthusiastic perception of art. Uniqueness is a cornerstone of diversity, and diversity is an integral part of the life experience as it is a conduit to heart opening experiences. It is also a way of experiencing travel while standing in one place. Take the example of thumbing through a magazine and turning to a page with wares from other lands. Your eye as well as your psyche are transported to a place where the style and color palettes reflect a unique culture and place. Colors, shapes and textures open cultural vernaculars and speak to us on a deeper level. The visual beauty we experience can give us a boost and bring something unique and refreshing to our outlook and environment.

“Art is life and life is art” as the saying goes. Just think, everything we do is art. Cooking, dancing, healing, weaving, painting and living to name a few, and they all have steps that help execute a unique artistic idea. The canvas of the chef may be different from that of a painter, but the means is designed to a creative end.

We at the brownstoneshopper follow the clear light inspiration as that is most compatible with our philosophy. Everyone has a uniquely simple, or vital self that is personal and private. It may even be that part of self that you reserve only for you. Utilize the talents of this side to explore different design styles, cultural items, accessories and even different ways of doing things that speak to you inside. If you have an interest or passion for a particular art form explore and embrace these interests.

Your unique viewpoint is a canvas of experience that you can share with others in different ways. It can be made visible in design and adornment as well as in positive, life-affirming choices.
