Christmas Giveaways

It's Christmastime, so we need some gifts around here, right? My wonderful new sponsor, the very talented artist Marquin Campbell of Marquin Designs has had a wildly popular antler series that is close to being sold out. So much so, that she had a 2014 calendar created with a different antler painting for each month.

Marquin is giving away an original antler painting as well as a 2014 antler calendar to a lucky follower of Chinoiserie Chic. Enter by leaving comments on this post (not by emailing me, please). Receive one entry for visiting her online store and telling me your favorite item in the store. You can receive up to four additional entries by liking Marquin Designs on Facebook and by following her on Twitter, Pinterest, and Instagram. Please leave a comment for each entry. The contest closes Sunday, December 15th at 11:59 PM ET and the winner will be announced next Monday, December 16th so you will have these great gifts in time for Christmas.

More antler canvases can be seen here and the 2014 calendars are available here.

I had to share with you photos of Marquin's powder room she just recently completed. Inspired by this photo she pinned below, she created this amazing freehand mural in her powder room. If you are in the Greenville, South Carolina area and would like to talk to Marquin about a custom mural project for your space, she can be reached at marquin@marquindesigns.com. Here is the link to the post on her powder room transformation.

Welcome Marquin Designs

I am delighted to welcome as a new sponsor of Chinoiserie Chic - Marquin Designs.

Marquin Campbell is a designer and painter inspired by her life’s journey: born of Southern grace in Savannah, enlivened by the funky, Southern-rock roots of her college days in Athens, Georgia, and refined by the chic groove of New York City’s West Village.

Her background is strictly art: she majored in both Drawing and Painting at the University of Georgia and went on to study Fashion Design at Parsons, The New School for Design in New York City. Her artistic passions also led her to study in both Cuba and Italy.

While in New York, Marquin had opportunities to work for Ralph Lauren, John Bartlett, Christian Lacroix, Tory Burch, and Rad Horani, in the areas of styling, design, and sales.

Marquin currently lives in Greenville, South Carolina where she works as a full time artist and designer with her husband George and two sweet dogs Bay and Jackson.

She also owns the Vino and van Gogh Art Studio and co-owns Yard Art - both in Greenville, South Carolina.

Marquin is happy to create custom jewelry or painting commissions for clients.

With the holidays and gift giving quickly approaching, you will find at Marquin Designs a wonderful collection of jewelry and art perfect for your own wish list and for the special people in your life.
