I’m so excited to return to Blue Print Surface Design and Print Show next month! I’ll be exhibiting with my art collective, Pencil Parade, at Show #1 May 17-19 in New York City.
Last year was the first time any of us had exhibited at a trade show and we had a great time. We learned a lot, met some wonderful people, and it was a fantastic way to really step up our game in our work as independent artists and designers. On the one hand I feel immensely more prepared for this year: I know what to expect and I have a lot more confidence in my work. On the other hand it’s always daunting to prepare for a show like this. I inevitably feel like I want to bring my very best work and that just has to be the next thing I make. So I’m constantly chasing my own tail. But I’m bringing some fun new work and I’m looking forward to being in New York again and seeing some friends.
If you’re an art/creative director or an art buyer you can register your team for free and please stop by the Pencil Parade booth (#44!). And if you’re a fellow artist who’s going to be in town for the shows, stop by and say hello!
I’ll be busy busy for the next few weeks finishing up collections, but here’s a sampling of some recent work I’ll be showing at Blue Print!
