I love it when I can start off a blog post with a great giveaway for you and, today, I have a really fantastic one!
It is an original piece of art from the private collection of a very talented interior decorator and blogger, Cynthia Weber.
Isn’t it beautiful?
It is from Cynthia’s private collection and it is titled, Bridge Near the Bodiam Castle by renown artist Peter Etril Snyder. Valued at $700.00 CAD the 9” x 13” piece will be shipped to the lucky winner unframed.
Here are the artists notes on this beautiful piece:
“Over four months in Kent in 1998 made me very conscious of all the red brick building in the southeast area of England. This small bridge is a Victorian structure located near Bodiam Castle. It presents a new and colourful contrast to the soft gray/beige of the ancient stone castle. Here in North America it is difficult to think of a building that has survived for one hundred and fifty years as new, but in a land that displays items from Roman times, this bridge is gleamingly new.”
Adding art — whether it’s a hand-me-down, a garage sale find, a reproduction or an original — is a must for every home. Art injects warmth, beauty and personality in to your spaces.
Imagine this room (designed by Cynthia) without the gorgeous old Union Jack or the vintage picture above the chest of drawers?
(You can see the full room reveal here.)
Or this vintage glam bathroom (also designed by Cynthia) without the mirrors or the old shutter?
(See the full room reveal here.)
The rooms just wouldn’t exude the same warmth and personality without the art on the walls. And, by the way…old flags, mirrors, architectural elements, plates on a wall — I consider it all “art!”
The beautiful painting Cynthia is giving away would work in any style home and I secretly am envious of the lucky winner!

LOVE this painting and the post (as well as the link to Cynthia Weber’s blog). but …
HELP — I followed the directions and never got a message or link to enter the drawing when I starred (tapped twice) her site on the bHome app.
I wonder if anyone else had the same experience & how do I enter?
Thanks, Julie
Thanks for letting me know Mimi. I will look in to it and get back to you!
