Youve most likely longed for haute couture, but what about haute
peinture?
Coined to describe the process of commissioning contemporary paintings,
haute peinture is B.C. artist Tanya
Slingsby’s specialty. The Zak Posen of the art world, her work
already adorns Holt Renfrew and Chambar and judging by the buzz at
opening night of her atelier (kudos on the grapefruit cocktails) bespoke
masterpieces have found their market.
After all, when youve just spent a fortune on the house of your dreams,
a made-to-measure painting is just the thing to put above the mantle.
And unlike your Chanel, it wont hide in your closet.
From $500. Tanya Slingsby Atelier, by appointment, 117 E. Second Ave.
604-874-1274, www.tanyaslingsby.com
