Studio visit: Esther K
Local artist Susan Banchek aka Esther K is a talented jewelry-maker (below are pics of models wearing her dinah necklace, $120, and her jacqueline necklace, $60). Tonight, Arcadia Boutique hosts an Esther K trunk show from 6-9. Go and check out some of her jangly, brassy, gingko-leafy necklaces.
Bancheck is also an accomplished "vignetticist," i.e. one who effortlessly creates breathtaking vignettes. I learned this when I visited her breezy Pine Street studio, where her inspirations--New Orleans detritus, UK fashion and art magazines, ostrich and peacock feathers, and vintage fabrics--are artfully arranged.
