Diane Williams

Diane is a professional decorative artist in the Richmond area and has operated her business, art to Di for, for over 20 years. Voted Richmond’s Favorite Decorative Painter by R-Home magazine for her skill in painting murals and decorative finishes in homes and commercial sites, she also creates custom canvas art and offers a line of hand-painted whiskey barrel staves. The barrel stave installations were born from her love of architectural art pieces and the idea that dimension art can add a unique look and personalization to living space. Diane's artistically applied layering of pattern and color and the play of pattern between the staves are displayed in the presentation of these complete art sets. The barrels are locally sourced from area breweries, such as Center of the Universe and Hardywood, before being disassembled, prepped, and painted. Each curated set consists of 3 or 5 staves; custom sized sets are available.
