Creative Paradise

This is the perfect creative environment.

I can't think of a more perfect vista to enjoy, and it's one that helps my creative juices flow. My creative paradise is here, where Puget Sound empties into the Strait of Juan de Fuca, at the tip of the Olympic Peninsula, just below the San Juan Islands. I often sit on this bench in the backyard of my "summer studio" atop a very tall bluff overlooking the kayaks, ferry boats and sail boats floating along Admirality Bay.


Garden "friends" and flowers provide an inviting backdrop for me to ponder my next collection or analyze an upcoming marketing endeavor.



Color schemes are easily snatched from nature.


Patterns evolve from textures and shadows.

I am often asked where I get my ideas, and my answer is always, "My surroundings." I am currently conceiving my 2014 collections, and launching an innovative way to market my products. Surrounded by nature's beauty, and fortunate enough to live (at least temporarily) in this creative paradise is the perfect incubator for creative thought. Stay tuned to follow my progress!
