NEON NIRVANA: NICOLE PORTER DESIGN'S

When I discovered Nicole Porter's captivating designs at the gift show, they caught my attention from 12 paces away.  With their bright and linear patterns, the beautiful light Beech Wood bowls and plates she creates are showstoppers. What a modern way to re-invent the classic wood bowl.  Porter applies zero VOC acrylic paints to the dried blond woods and the resulting made in the USA designs are striking in a mod surfer way.  Just don't put them in the dishwasher or microwave, they are allergic.  The strong graphic designs, stripes and color play make her eye catching designs worth noting.
