Why, hellooooo!
Please accept my apologies for effectively going MIA over the last few weeks, I’ve had a busy season to say the least! It’s been a whirlwind of creating new art, meeting new clients, signing new artists, and networking with some amazing fellow textile studios at both Printsource NY and Direction by Indigo, both of which took place in New York just last week. The next few days should be relatively calm, which will give me a chance to catch up around here on the blog. Below are a few snapshots from NY, and also a couple of sneak previews of some of the newest designs in the collection. Shoot us a message if you’re in the Los Angeles area and would like to see the line, or if you’re a textile artist looking to work with our studio.
Ringing in the first color story of 2012 with an appropriate dose of shimmer and sparkle. I find this time of year is always good for a bit of reflection, metallic or otherwise. Here’s hoping the new year brings amazing wonders to all of our friends and family.

Generally regarded as a sign of sloppiness and low quality [resolution] within the graphic industry, pixilated imagery appears to be pulling it’s weight as a respectable print motif these days. We’ve seen this trend jump from one surface to another in the world of surface design. In fact, it seems to be fairly well represented among fashion, interiors, fine art, and design categories one might mark as ‘other’. My jaw nearly hit the floor when I saw the Pixel Pumps from Mitsubai [pictured below].. I probably wouldn’t wear them much in real life, but I’m now considering planning my next Halloween costume solely around them.

While I’m jealous I couldn’t see these gorgeous sights for myself in person, I’m eternally grateful to artist and fellow textile designer Liz Brizzi for sharing her photos from a recent trip to Israel, Greece and Turkey. This post is the final installment of photos from this trip, I certainly feel I saved the juiciest inspiration for last. But don’t you fret, Ms. Brizzi has hinted there is another trip on her horizon. Look forward to more Brizzi Abroad in the new year. To find out more about Liz, visit her website and Etsy shop.

Who says red and green are the go-to colors for the holidays?? I’d rather kick off the last week of the year with a more equal-opportunity color scheme. Happy Boxing Day!
