Adding color and quirkiness to the world, that is my mission.  I have always loved things that are a little odd.  Give me weird, strange, or unique over perfection any day.  In this collection, I was inspired by 1920s and 1950s glamour, and French culture. As I was creating, I felt the personalities of my subjects.  I thought of how they would walk, talk, and laugh.  I thought about how a name can tell you something about a person.  My collection, JE M'APPELLE, is a statement of identification.  When beginning a relationship, we first learn one's name, then who they are.  I hope you form a relationship with someone in my collection.
