About Us

From the creators of Porter Art Guild comes Dazzle & Co. Fanciful Fine Art - where nature dons her finest jewels and whimsy reigns with unabashed splendor.  Imagine rabbits crowned with strings of pearls and ribbons of silk, peacocks draped in cascading tassels that shimmer like morning dew, foxes adorned with glittering brooches stolen from enchanted gardens, and creatures of every kind celebrating in magnificent excess. Here, restraint takes a holiday and delight knows no bounds.

Co-founders John and Tracy Porter's creative journey began when they met in Chicago - he from Illinois, she freshly returned from Paris. United by artistic passion, they settled on a 21-acre Wisconsin farmette where their vision blossomed into something extraordinary: a place where elegance meets exuberance and every creature becomes a masterpiece.

Their first venture, a hand-painted furniture company, quickly evolved as Tracy's artwork captivated audiences. The collection expanded to include apparel, rugs, and elegant dinnerware. With curiosity and unwavering commitment, they've navigated the intersections of creativity and commerce, always following wherever joy leads.

Together, they've created Porter Art Guild, Wild Fig Emporium, Ranch Royalty, Canine Treasury, Seaside Atelier, Narratives Fine Art, and Liminal Abstract Modern Fine Art - each venture a testament to their boundless imagination. Now, with Dazzle & Co., they celebrate the theatrical heart of nature itself.

For John and Tracy, art is a grand celebration where the natural world becomes a stage for unbridled fancy. It's the place where a cardinal's feathers deserve diamonds, where garden mice warrant velvet capes, and where beauty is never too much but always just enough. As parents of four sons, they've built a life rich in both creativity and the courage to embrace the gloriously ornate.

Through Porter Art Guild, they share their artistic journey with classical elegance. With Dazzle & Co. Fanciful Fine Art, they invite you into a world where nature and folly dance together in spectacular fashion - a sanctuary of charming playfulness where every creature is dressed for the ball and every piece sparks pure delight.
