Some friendships shape more than memories—they shape spaces. Kerry Irvine, a longtime best friend of Eileen’s, brings not only her painter’s hand but her heart to Ten Easy Street. A former Ralph Lauren stylist turned full-time artist and colorist, Kerry approaches her work with a rare vulnerability—allowing emotion, intuition, and color to lead the way. Her canvases are layered with tension and release, shadow and illumination. Each one is an invitation to feel more deeply, to look beyond the surface, to find your own meaning within the movement. At TES, her presence is both personal and powerful—woven into the home like a memory you don’t want to forget.
Color Is The Cure
Why: Kerry Irvine’s work is rooted in emotion, grounded in experience, and driven by the raw honesty of self-expression. “This is a solo journey,” she says. “Full of vulnerability and fear.” From that brave interior space emerges something expansive—paintings that are jagged, fluid, rhythmic, and searching. Her pieces are not just visual—they’re visceral. They offer viewers a story, and then permission to make it their own.
What: A curated selection of Irvine’s abstract paintings is featured throughout Ten Easy Street, each one a study in emotional topography. Some are soft and color-washed, others bold and raw—but all pulse with a kind of internal rhythm. Drawing on her background in fashion and storytelling, she weaves mood into motion, creating works that don’t simply hang—they hum.
Where: Kerry’s work is found in rooms where the light hits just right—where color and energy are free to shift with the time of day. These pieces are not just adornments, but touchstones: reminders that beauty can come from both light and shadow, and that the most meaningful spaces are the ones that hold space for feeling.
