As I've mentioned in the past, I've been taking the e-courses, The Art & Business of Surface Pattern Design, from Make It In Design. The last one, Ultimate Portfolio Builder, just ended about two weeks ago. They have been very generous and kind regarding my designs and have tagged me as an Emerging Designer! They asked me to answer a few questions about the class in addition to some personal things like how I got started, etc. So if you're interested to learn a little bit more about me, click here to read the full post!
I recently had a company contact me regarding providing some designer insights in to the latest home decor trends. At first I wasn't sure since I hadn't heard of the company before but after doing some quick research I realized why. Terry's Fabrics is based in the UK! So, it's official....I'm international!
This was an exciting project for me especially since I have a background in architecture and interior design! That mixed with my home decor surface patterns, it was a no brainer. I'm truly honored to be in such great company as some other surface pattern designers that I have admired for a while, Miriam Bos, Zoe Ingram and Josephine Kimberling along with a few of my new surface pattern friends, Natalie Williamson and Egle Petrauskaite. I had to provide some of my patterns and a bio about myself along with my top 5 home decor picks for the season. Here are a few highlights from the post and you can view the full article here.
