REMEMBERING PRINCE
Today is the anniversary of Prince’s passing. I designed this little piece of artwork for him. It’s based on his star on the First Avenue wall. You can see within the star, an image of some real stars I took when I was in the South of France. This year, we are celebrating his life…

DESIGNER DIARY: CAN WE MAKE WEARING A MASK FUN FOR PEOPLE DURING CORONAVIRUS?
It is no doubt that coronavirus has made life more difficult. And even after lockdown, life won’t return back to quite what it was before the virus, at least not right away.

SPIRITS WATCH ME DO A HANDBAG ALTERATION – EVP December 20, 2019
Now that it’s winter, we stay home a lot more and I spend time doing activities like knitting, sewing, or playing on my guitar. One night I watched a video of a leatherworker doing alterations on a handbag for his customer. It got me inspired. I had a bag I wanted to do an alteration…

SPIRITS REACT TO PRINCE ON THE AIRPLANE – EVP September 29, 2019
On my previous trips, I have observed through EVP, that spirits do travel by airplane. Spirits are everywhere, and airports are no exception.
