Episode 623: Listen as I chat with photographer, painter, & jewelry designer Julie Corder about our ongoing show, Lady Orchids in front of East 8th Street Vintage. This is a LTAWB popup series with a featured artist on [nice] weekends.
In today’s world, women are called to be orchids; resilient and spectacularly stalwart. Not to mention delightfully charming… as well as stunningly beautiful.
Julie Corder has captured these lush flowers in photographs and paired them with her exquisite Picasso portrait paintings of women on display in her Lady Orchids exhibition at East 8th Street Vintage.
