Home Tour – Meet the Artist Edition with Cindy DeAntonio
Meet Cindy DeAntonio, local artist and member of the Charleston Artist Collective. Celadon recently launched a collaborative series with the Charleston Artist Collective, Art of Home, where members of the Collective will create exclusive paintings for rotating exhibits here at Celadon. We are also taking you behind the scenes into the homes of each of the artists to get a feel of what inspires their work and how they use their own Celadon finds! Next up, Cindy DeAntonio!
