The wondrous creations of Kelly Gale Amen

Pardon me while I have a fan girl moment. Last night at Lisa Hamilton's benefit performance of "Bald in the Land of Big Hair" (an ingenious one-woman show based on my memoir), I met Houston artist Kelly Gale Amen. I've loved (no, make that LOVED -- like a tween loves Bieber, like an elbow patch loves Proust) his mind-expanding, space-bending furniture for years. Now that I've met the guy, I understand why these pieces bring such a strong vibe of joy into the spaces they inhabit. He's a fabulously styled force for good in Houston and the universe. Pictured here, an art bed created in collaboration with Texas Children's Hospital cancer patients and their siblings. Click here to visit the KGA interior gallery and be agog.
