Scott Neste has one of the most captivating artistic styles. His mixed media collages contain a perfect balance of emotional and decorative appeal. Neste’s ability to combine contrasting colors, shapes, styles, shades and mediums into complimentary artistic expressions sets his work apart.
Some works contain upwards of 40 different layers in order to capture the desired effect.
Neste was featured recently on the front page of his local newspaper for his art exhibition, My Little Adventure, displayed in conjunction with the opening of his friends’ coffee shop.
All of the framed art prints displayed for this exhibit were produced by Imagekind, printed straight from his gallery. He also created brochures and flyers to hand out to visitors of the exhibit directing people back to his art prints for sale on Imagekind.
One of his most stunning collections, Vintage Memories, is a compilation of old and forgotten memories recreated into a contemporary work of art. Using a combination of journal entries dating back to 1909, vintage photographs, corroded paint, fall leaves and other such discarded items, Neste created a powerful statement on the value of remembrance. Exhibit visitors would approach Neste with tears in their eyes as they share how his artwork reminds them of their often forgotten family members of the past.

The portrait is one of the most striking forms of art. The ability to successfully represent such a complex subject has always astounded me. The portrait predominantly emphasizes a subject’s face and their expressions but is not limited to simply that. The portrait allows the artist to depict visually, what a person is experiencing in any given situation or moment in time.

I asked Pamela Smith, our guest blogger from the National Redesign Institute, who specializes in one day interior redesign makeovers, if she had some tips she could share with those looking for advice on how they can decorate with art in their homes successfully. She had so much great information that I thought it would be best to break her ideas into separate posts. Read on to find her tips below, and stay on the lookout for her other tips in the coming weeks.
Expressing ourselves through art has been a significant part of our lifestyle throughout history. Our interiors – from the bleakest cave on up – have always displayed some form of art. Yet I often find myself asking why now, in this art-filled day and age, do I see more and more interiors lacking this important finishing touch?
