Artist Nancy B. Westfall has a home studio, but when she wants feedback on a new painting, she moves her abstracts to the room where it will get her family's attention and feedback.
“I hang it in the dining room, and we sit and discuss it,” she said.
But her home's artwork isn't limited to canvas pieces. Westfall drew in a chinoiserie-inspired floral pattern with the look of hand-painted wallpaper. The design started out as chalk, but after a couple of years — and people bumping into the walls and erasing it — she made it permanent.
Downstairs, people can bump into the padded walls in the playroom, which has a slide, zip line, ball pit and swings. It’s so popular that the neighborhood kids have nicknamed the room “The Thunderdome.”
