In Focus

The first challenging part of this creative exploration has been maintaining consistency. The second has been clearing space from other commitments to stay the course and have conviction — to do only the things that make my heart happy creatively and to follow them through to their natural evolution.

I have been led and trained to believe that business logic holds truth, but I sense that there is something magical beneath my own surface that I will never fully see or understand until I begin to unlock joyful creative actions with intention. It has not been easy turning away from other opportunities that would be financially lucrative.

Yet, I know there is a way to bring together joyful creative actions with financial wealth. Today is the big day that I intend to finish sewing the Gilded Haze dress. Tomorrow, I haven’t yet decided which dress I will work on next. After this exhibition, I will begin writing the script for my film.

Sometimes we are already on the right track, but we are so new to the work that we cannot see its worth. We have filmed many times, but it has been a secondary part of the process to the fashion line.

Here we have lace that I had selected and have gone into the Elsa Fitzgerald dresses. The Gold is in the Gilded Haze dress and the Blue and Charcoal are in the Midnight Willow dress.

The dark and eerie romance of our content is marvelous against the light and darkness coming through the textured glass at Madison house.

Mount Vernon - Baltimore, Maryland is a stunning place to set the creation of this content.
