Martha Stewart Debut!

December 17, 2011 cynthia 4 Comments

I have been dying to post about my first appearance in Martha Stewart Weddings! I was one of the lucky designers that was contacted to create a wedding suite inspired by pattern. I was assigned stripes!  Instead of sticking to the classic crisp lines we know so well, I created stencils and hand-painted watercolor washes onto each and every piece. Labor intensive, yes, but I … [Read more...]

Signs of Encouragement

November 16, 2011 cynthia Leave a Comment

It has been quite some time since my last post. It amazes me how quickly time moves on. My life has been busy with work, travel, more work, and the construction of my studio addition! In times like these I find it helpful to make myself "signs of encouragement".... little handmade signs to comfort and motivate me through the chaos.

She illustrated the shopfront and little houses … [Read more...]

In honor of the 40th year the walls of the Café and Restaurant were wallpapered with hundreds of custom printed menus from the past!!! And I am pleased to say, several of them were mine. This gorgeous photograph is courtesy of … [Read more...]

40 Years Of Chez Panisse

September 2, 2011 cynthia 4 Comments

Chez Panisse Restaurant & Alice Waters have been on my mind a lot lately. Last Sunday, August 28th, the restaurant turned 40 years old! I've been feeling very nostalgic as the restaurant and Alice have significantly influenced who I am today... not to mention, it is my 40th year as well... which makes it even more special. I've been reminiscing through old flat file drawers … [Read more...]
