Well I don’t go to Surtex, but my designs are and that is kind a same thing :)!!! It was hard keeping a secret but I really didn’t know if I would manage to do all the job and uploaded designs and mock-ups in such short period of time.
In the middle of April I was invited from A Fresh Bunch , licensing agency from Illinois to join their artists. And yes – I could prepare my designs for Surtex as long as I could manage the due date – May 1st. The decision had to be quick, so I sent them quick YES reply and start working. The portfolio is little smaller than I would like to have it, but MY DESIGNS ARE GOING TO BE AT SURTEX! And that is coooool. Here’s a sneak peak of Elegant Xmas collection.
So, a tons of work is behind of me. What do I see infront of me? A tons of work too!!! I have to work on my logo and on new ideas. The Pattern Design course with lovely Rachel Taylor has started and I am way behind.
Despite of anything I need a break :). Our wedding anniversary is right at the door and we decided to take 2 precious day off. Yes! So – my friends – tomorrow I will be here with my love, sourrounded with moutains and I am sure we’ll climb one.
I can't wait to see this view.
The life is good and little easier right now.
