About Benton & Tilley.

Benton was my paternal grandmother’s maiden name.  She was a painter and a sculptor.  Tilley was my maternal grandmother’s maiden name.  She was a writer and a poet.  Benton & Tilley is about capturing a bit of their artistic spirit each day.  Sometimes that means wandering through Kensington Gardens, needlepointing and admiring paintings at the V&A; and sometimes that means watching Real Housewives, trying every flavor at my local macaron shop, and listening to Whitney Houston songs on loop.
