if you haven’t been to the seatlle design center yet you really should.. a good time would be at the upcoming sdc sample sale where the theme:
"The Intersection of Fashion & Design" Discover the fusion of timeless elegance and modern luxury as we bring together fashion and interior design, with sustainability at the core.
As you know SUSTAINABILITY is something I have been passionate about since 2009! I always try + enforce the rules in all of my creations. reach out anytime + i’ll tell you more ;)
at somepoint in time you must adapt to change + the inevitable: a rebrand. since moving to the pnw three years ago this has been in the back of my mind knowing i must adapt to the new arena of the AI digital age with a better focus on my seo + backend support. something i just really didn’t care about or even want to share within oversaturated crowd.
being future forward has always been important to me if not the most important : keeping focused on what makes my artwork unique + in the forefront in the big bad competitive world of DESIGN. i am hopeful this is the year of sustainability as I am hearing a lot of builders, engineers + designers wanting these products..now for them to not only want them but need them to help mother earth + move forward into only eco-friendly practices.
onward + upward into 2025 >>>> a rebrand is on its way !!
sustainability in art still has not yet caught on…this is to my advantage because I have been creating sustainable art for over 15 years now! in a time where eco-friendly products are now stretching ever so slowly into the forefront of design just like the farm-to-table cuisine. everyone knows it is the best but not everyone can afford it. why has it taken so long? is design still far behind in quality vs quantity? I am working on bridging that gap in a space where designers do not have to compromise either.
CherryBlossom iii. will be up for one nite silent auction + proceeds go to fig. a. choice charity: Maddie’s Promise! Swing by and start bidding for a good cause.
On view in the fp3 gallery are uniquely textured acrylic paintings by boston artist, wendy shapiro. these eco-friendly works are layers of horizons, clouds and soft sea storms. being environmentally conscious has always been incorporated in wendy’s art. by using greenguard gold certified (for low chemical emissions UL 2818) acrylic paint in this series she continues this practice. wendy hopes the viewer takes a moment to imagine taking a step into each piece and visualize what the infinite horizon is today and will imminently be.
