You'd be hard-pressed to find lovelier paintings of Chicago than those by Nancie King Mertz. You'd also be hard-pressed to find lovelier people than she and her husband Ron.
Together they run Art de Triumph (see link here). It's a unique art and framing store at 2936 North Clark Street with lots of original works. It's not often you find a community shop run by an artist with original works rather than mass productions.
So, put a visit on your itinerary the next time you're in that neighborhood and experience something special and unique about Chicago.
By the way, June 2 might be a good date to do that as Nancie debuts her new Chicago paintings at their store. They throw a great party that takes advantage of their cool courtyard in back of the store. For more information visit here. You can also look at samples from her portfolio online here.
