\nI began my career as a graphic designer in Boston\/Cambridge and then switched to collage illustration full-time when I got married and moved back to San Francisco. My husband is a Creative Director and we have 2 gorgeous daughters, now 17 and 21. (Yes, I\u2019m sure I\u2019m older than most of the illustrators in this package). We\u2019ve lived in San Francisco, Berkeley, London, and Portland, OR. I\u2019ve spent the last few years designing paper products in addition to my illustration work… Hoping to continue both.<\/p>\n
\nTo get my studio organized. I even wrote a piece about the chaos that is my workspace in the Felt & Wire blog last fall. But this summer will be known as the \u201cGreat Purge of 2010\u201d as I am proud to say I am finally getting rid of old files, old samples, old artwork. Feels great.<\/p>\n
\nHow quiet it will be around the house when my 17 yr old goes off to college in a year! I tend to keep my head down in my studio, unaware of how much time has passed… With both daughters out of the house, I\u2019m afraid I will forget to leave it!<\/p>\n
\nMy scanner and my trusty printer, an Epson Stylus Photo 2200. I\u2019ve had that printer for 8 years and am constantly amazed at the quality of the printing.<\/p>\n
\nI hope to move back to Europe (London? Amsterdam? Berlin?) with my husband in a few years. I just have to convince HIM<\/span>!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"\n
