GIFT SHOW PREVIEW: AUDREY STERK DESIGNS

Audrey Sterk, a decorative painter, has a charming logo for her brand. It speaks to her creative spirit and innovative ideas

Her original mural represents a panoramic view of the Nantucket landscape. The pivoting position of the viewer is from Altar Rock and begins with a view of the creeks spanning around Monomoy beach with Brant Point lighthouse and Coatue in the distance. Continuing past Polpis Harbor, Great Point lighthouse, and into Sconset town including Sankaty lighthouse and the once used Nantucket Railroad.

For the last decade, Nantucketer Audrey Sterk has created wall murals and custom decorative painted finishes for homes on the island and in New York. Based on her love of nature and the beauty that inspires her, she uses the Nantucket landscape as well as graphic elements as a springboard in her work. From Americana to early scenics, Audrey livens up her interpretations for the way we live today. She makes her NY Gift Show debut with a line of coffee and end tables covered in canvas and hand-painted decorative finishes. In addition, she will also be showing her customizable wallpapers and screens. Stop by Pier 94 At Home Booth 41049 and tell her Stylebeat sent you!

Love this! We are Nantucketers so will definitely try and stop by her booth. Altar rock is the highest point on the island so it would afford her a wonderful view indeed - love her logo too!!
