Carla’s latest designs range from mini ceramic glazed sculptures which serve as drawer and door knobs, interior clothing hooks and lighting, to larger pieces including tables and paintings. All bring color and life to the ambience of the work and home environment. The artist has attracted clientele from all over the world – the US, UK, Europe, and the Far East. A formative artistic influence dates from a business trip to Northern Thailand when Carla had the opportunity to meet with top government officials as well as a notable collector of ancient Asian artifacts. His antiquities had been repainted in vibrant, harmonious colors by the Royal Family’s personal artists to make them meaningful and functional for modern culture. These ancient works transcend time and place to express eternal values. Likewise, Carla seeks to communicate the importance of spirituality, beauty and respect for one another and nature. Even more than the act of artistic creation, her mission is to embrace the concept that art serves to communicate and unite humanity.
