Kaye x Leah

Over the summer I worked on a collaboration with illustrator/designer/woman extraordinaire, Leah Goren. We wanted to make a couple products that would combine our processes, and allow us to share skills with each other. We're both illustrators, but Leah has taken her drawings to textile designs and is a whiz at pattern making. And I'm pretty addicted to making metal pieces. So we got to learn each other's ways! Here's what we came up with. We went in a moody floral direction (I think the floral was Leah's influence, the moodiness I probably need to answer for).

A two-sided tote, with an ink blot test inspired bouquet. You can see on it the pin that we designed: a big spiky sunflower.

An allover-patterned clutch. It's hard to tell scale in these pictures but it is a pretty large pouch - 11" x 8.25".

They're finally up on my etsy, should you wish to see more photos: clutch and tote.

...and then I ruined the shoes

...and then I ruined the shoes

Went walking on muddy Thames beaches, used muddy stepping stones to cross the Thames to an island made entirely of mud, climbed around on muddy island, got intimately acquainted with mud. Mud mud mud. Damn.

painted shoes

painted shoes

I painted a pair of shoes yesterday. They were a great success, I got asked on a hot date by a guy in a chicken shop, and got given a free pepsi. All based on the shoes.
