Mickey Sumner is amazing
My dear friend Miss Mickey came by the studio yesterday. Always such a pleasure to share an afternoon with one of my estranged brothers or sisters from the Sumner clan. I always thought Mickey was an actress but little did I know that she is also an amazing artist. The one directly below is titled “Hung” and I hope to be adding it to our collection soon!

Asher Hoffman is pretty much a beast
I’ve known him for years now. He has been such a huge part of helping Anna and I learn the intricacies of the jewelry business. Thought you might like to see a pic of the award he designed and made for Summit Series.
They honored Bill Clinton with it Monday night… The piece weighed 12 lbs and was solid stainless steel. Asher also let me know that it doubles as an...

The Catholic in me..
.. Well that part of me loves this Christian LaCroix gown and headdress.. it certainly is reminiscent of Catholic iconography, which I innately adore. And being that it is also Haute Couture, the nearly extinct art form that celebrates inspiration from On-High, I find it befitting.

Pooktre
You want organic furniture? It doesn’t get much greener than this. Apparently this is Pete - in a Garden Tree Chair. Over 20 years ago, Pete decided he wanted to grow a chair. I mean, I have those thoughts as well, sometimes, but I normally stick to Basil and Tomatoes. He has created - Pooktre - the art of shaping trees into pre-determined designs. The tree people are a little freaky, but...

I know I know..
it just took me a week to give proper respect to this thought..
In lieu of recent events I will scroll about the importance of consistency and more than that, the importance the of quality. Whether it’s in regards to a person, a garb-crafter, a cobbler or a favorite restaurant. Be consistent: it is so important.
An acquaintance/friend of many people in the New York community passed this week....

Zipping around on the fast boat with Bart enjoying his natural habitat. And enjoying said natural habitat, which includes community lounging- hooking several boats together and drinking beers all day. As well as the Redneck-ish ...

Nicole Dextras takes it to a whole new level
We all know flower print is all the rage this summer - but artist Nicole Dextras takes it to a whole new level! She has designed evening wear out of foliage! According to her, “It points the concept of environmental art into the realm of the body as politic and the hegemony of the fashion industry”. Red carpet anyone?
Made from: Camellia Flowers, Lilac Flowers, Yucca Leaves, Laurel...

Wow. I’m not sure how many of you like great music videos, or great music for that matter. But when the two come together (not unlike Radio Head) its magic, and inspirational. I came across this jewel if you haven’t seen it already. Here is a still to wet your pallet.

Mrs. Minkoff stopped by yesterday
Always good to see her. She is such a sweetheart. We have all become good friends over the past year. It’s so great to see how successful she has has become but still stayed such a humble, down to earth lady. These two are top notch! Check out Rebecca’s new blog - minkette.com, so bad ass!
