Had the pleasure of meeting with @_natalieholland_ again and diving into her world of tufting and punch needle from across the globe in New Zealand. Her work strikes a beautiful tension—clean, geometric compositions made tactile and soft throug
Just finished a wonderful consult with @tlpapa — 7 years after our very first meeting! Over the years she’s made 3 different countries her home, and each new place finds its way into her drawings. Her gouache work reflects everything: the
Had the pleasure of meeting with the talented @sarahgordondesign to dive into her latest experimentations. Rooted in observation yet blooming with imagination, Sarah’s practice treads a compelling line between the scientific and the surreal. We
