I just moved to DC a couple of months ago from Seattle. I decided to settle in Bethesda, and I just love it. I'm within walking distance to the metro, as well as great shops and restaurants.
The Bethesda Row Arts Festival was this weekend. It was really beautiful -- so many amazing artists. My absolute favorite was Teri Oja. She creates gorgeous thread paintings using embroidery. Her work is mostly florals and landscapes, and she has an impressionistic style. I've never seen anything like it.
I love a modern, clean asthetic, and Fontier Designs has really gorgeous home accessories. The pewter lamps are to die for! He was also one of the nicest artists there - so talented, yet so nice and friendly. I need some lamps, and I will be ordering from him as soon as I can.
Finally, I'm a huge fan of metalwork. Rob Glebe uses steel to replicate pottery designs. This piece is one of my favorites.
