We are so thrilled to announce the newest art installation adorning the walls @cutenailstudio.atx on E.7th street. Artwork by @lydiajarjoura Forever inspired by the suggestive work of Georgia O’Keefe, she started these paintings 2 years ago with “It’s a Grapefruit”. She was going through a lonely wave in time and wanted to keep her hands occupied as she listened to podcasts or watched tv. Like all of their paintings, the joy, for her, is in the process and less the end result. This series is a big turn from her abstract work where the joy comes from stretching canvas and making very large brush strokes. These pieces feel very contained, and beautiful. Like fruits in their skin. All artwork is for sale and will be on display through July 14th 2026 lydiajarjoura.com . . #artwork #supportlocalartists #beadart #abstractart #homedecor

We are thrilled to announce the newest art installation adorning the walls in the main dinning room @bouldincreekcafeatx The Long Way Around: Works by Grant King Grant King is a multidisciplinary artist based in Austin, whose work reflects a lifelong commitment to exploration through drawing, painting, and mixed media. With over three decades of creative practice, King’s artistic journey is rooted in an evolving dialogue between instinct and intention. His recent body of work draws heavily from years of accumulated sketches, studies, and spontaneous doodles—transforming them into layered, expressive paintings that blur the line between refinement and raw energy. Each piece carries the imprint of time, revealing a process that is as much about discovery as it is about composition. King’s work invites viewers to engage with the in-between spaces—where unfinished thoughts, marks, and memories converge—offering a visual narrative shaped by persistence, curiosity, and the long arc of artistic growth. All artwork is for sale and will be on display through May 19th 2026 Please take this opportunity to follow, like, share and support @graniterasta You can also find their work on FB DesignsbyGrant  . . . #austinartist #paintingsforsale #mixedmediaartwork #supportlocalartists #doodles
