As I take to the canvas it’s likely that I
have beautiful music playing loudly in the background, what can I say, Jonsi and Alex know how to set the atmosphere
of creativity. We often drink deeply the inspirations of others and some times
we create from them.Recently I had the pleasure of
being a featured artist at Hope in the City, a progressive Fashion Show out to
challenge designers, but also give to those that are less fortunate. This year
there were over 1100 people in attendance and raising over $17,000 in ticket
sales and sponsorships for the downtown battered women's shelter! The 2011 HITC
design component was for designers to create original fashion
based on another piece of art done by a local artist. Art begets art, one of my
pieces was chosen for three designers to create from; I am humbled by the
greatness of their work, and I'm inspired to look
to collaborate artistically more in the future.
