Hello again this week! Today, is the recap of the CHA Designer's In Action. It's a booth that houses the work of CHA Designers that choose to participate, in a gallery type way. Every one has a four foot square pedestal or board to display whatever they choose, and show participants come visit and view the work, and hopefully connections are made for work opportunities. We host coffees, meetings, meet and greets, and demos. It's a great place to hang out in as well.
Here I am in front of my booth, photo courtesy of Marjie Kemper. Not a good photo, but a great outfit so I included it!!! ;0) Not Marjie's fault though, just a fake smile, and I don't like that.
This year, I decided to show some of the classes I taught, some published pieces, and a few of my favorites all from 2015. The notepad with the scissors on it, must have been a favorite, as several sheets of it kept disappearing, my notes and all. Ugh! But...all the notes I did receive were absolutely lovely!
It's all a crazy mish mash of my work, but that's how I roll. I was told I had a style...'Vintage with Color'. That blew my mind! I always thought I didn't have a certain style, but now I can kind of see that. I like it!

ReplyDeleteVintage with Colour completely sums it up... and so great to see the designers' showcase tables in detail. Bravo!

My minds all a whirl. The pictures are fabulous. You have a niche in the vintage with color genre and that's so super cool. Your outfit is a knock out and WOW all the wonderful tables with so much creativity and fabulousness. (Yes, that's now officially a word) and I still have one question. You mentioned job opportunities....did you calendar just get jam packed?? I hope, I hope, I hope :D
ReplyDeleteBig hugs and moving on to next post,

Vintage with color? Perfect! I loved your display - especially your encaustic umbrella man! Wish I lived close enough to take your classes!
ReplyDeleteVintage with colour sounds spot on! How cool that you got to show off your incredible work and get the recognition for all your hard work. Off to see more... Jenny x
