Designing Through the Medium of Love

Designing Through the Medium of Love

As a sweet, young child, your family is and should be the most important source of safety net for you. Your family should cover you in a blanket of love and protection. Unfortunately, this was not the case for Coco Berthmann. Coco was a victim of sex trafficking in Germany for 15 long years. She […]

Victoria’s Reconstruction

Victoria’s Reconstruction

Victoria came to me with an idea to change her great aunt’s dress into something more up to date. She already had in mind the type of look she wanted to achieve for her dress. We started by drawing out the details, drafting out the new bodice, washing the old dress (which smelled of mothballs), […]

This is my one year month of Covid! I wish I could This is my one year month of Covid! I wish I could say it does not last that long but obviously it does! Trying to cope with lingering symptoms, the overwhelming shut down, that affected me personally, as a business owner, and a mom of four, I found last spring especially difficult. I came up with a therapy project to divert my attention. Everything had a meaning. On the days I could not work due to my symptoms, I thought it out. It took me well over three months. It ended up on Fox news in Denver. Tomorrow we will be doing a big collaboration photo shoot with the Colorado Wedding Magazine along the same lines as my project.  Once again it has become my therapy after a bad flair up of all symptoms this November. Truly it was like starting completely over, and I have struggled deeply. I hope to tell the story of Covid through an artistic expression and demonstrate that truly our actions, our words, our deeds effect each other so much. For good or for ill we are all intertwined.  That is what I believe we can all learn from all aspects of this past year 2020/2021. 💕  #coloradodesigner #livingwithcovid #postcovidsyndrome #longhaulers #chronicillness #coloradowedding #coloradobride #coloradogirl #mytherapy #myart #mylove @thecoloradoweddingmagazine @jean_graston_photography
