And now, over to you Michelle!
My bookshelves are created from stacking vintage crates on top of a fifties bookshelf.
A collection of studio books – This picture says it all! Color, textiles, tutus, books, wallpaper. It’s my organized chaos.
Some books, organized by color, not content. I love books about surfing & old fashioned ladies!
These are some of my favorite surf imagery books, these photos always seem to make their way into my presentations.
Sister Corita is so incredible; in addition to this newly published book, I have a couple vintage books and two of her serigraphs, found at a flea market and presented to my husband as his wedding present.
Some stamps from my collection; as you can see, I use them for lettering inspiration.
These are some of my work-in-progress boards from a while back. It takes me a while to gather and cull my inspiration so it tells exactly the right story.
This are some of my sketchbooks, where I keep my inspiration together, and organize it by color, pattern, concept etc.
