“My love of flowers and beautiful fabrics bloomed when I began painting at the age of two. When I was a young girl, my mother could always find me at the store looking at beautiful fabrics or, in her rose garden, captivated by the colors and scents of her roses.


In college I studied Art but chose the business world to earn a living. Yet my heart always yearned for beautiful colors and shapes and the touch of fine fabrics. Recently I left the corporate world and attended Art School to qualified as a Certified Textile and Surface Pattern Designer.


I am designing my own line of silk scarves as I have always loved wearing them. Now I can create color combinations that are not just seasonal or currently in style, but beautiful colors that all women can wear all year long. A bit of color that complements a woman’s skin, hair and eye color can truly enhance her natural beauty.


The simple process of putting a brush into color and applying that onto silk is such a pure feeling of joy. Every one of my scarves seems to have a life of its own.


In addition to scarves, I am also creating a line of table dressings and other home decor items.  The table dressings includes runners, place-mats, napkins, and table cloths. Home decor items include duvet covers, pillowslips and decorative pillows of various sizes.”
