Custom hand-stitched costumes in the PNB design studio.
A Pacific Northwest Ballet board meeting included a studio tour of the costume department. Included in the tour was a view of the latest Roméo et Juliette hand-made costume designs - minus the extraordinary talent that "fills its shoes." Bravo!

With Gilt author Alexandra Wilkis Wilson at the book launch.
Hearing Gilt design giant Alexandra Wilson speak at a chambers forum was educational and inspirational. She lectured on behalf of the ingenuity that drives the glamour of this business. Exploring entrepreneurial ventures has never been so fashionable! A business lover's must-read.

Swim-style decor
When hosting a party on a large or small scale, a theme is a sure way to make a "splash." Consider a common thread to pull together an underlying theme, including color & decorations to coordinate with event happenings.

Surf's up!

After: the assembled shadow box.
Check out the design process of a shadow box featuring keepsakes from the Pacific Northwest Ballet production The Nutcracker. When arranged with composition and balance in mind, a collection of photos and memorabilia can turn into a beautiful piece of art.

Budding Seattle Symphony Artist
Seattle Symphony's Sound Bridge offers art by cultivating musical education and appreciation, letting young artists explore by way of lecture, song, and hands-on exploration. Highly recommended for free-style, instrumental art fun. Encore!

Fresh print ready to inspire
Tiffany & Co. hosted the book signing of design icon Cameron Silver of Decades, Inc. for his new design book, Decades: A Century of Fashion. It's a worthy book rich in history and bold design acceptance - a feast for the eyes, as is visiting his newly renovated shop.
