Smart Creative Women

Good Morning!

I’m super thrilled to introduce to you a new wonderful friend, Monica Lee. She is amazing. She has launched a site called Smart Creative Women where she video interviews women who have marked their path in some way in their respective creative businesses. She herself is a textile and paper designer, and has dedicated this new phase of her life to making available the advice and stories of women who have been able to make a business out of their creative calling! She has created such a great resource for so many of us!

The interview is 45 minutes long and we talk about my personal path to what I’m doing now, and the ups and downs along the way…which hopefully includes some inspiration and advice for those looking for it! My one disclaimer is that my computer (at the time) only reveals the parts of wall that are currently blah and uncovered (sorry! boring:) But it’s a great interview and Monica is actually the smart one because she is the one that gets to learn from amazing women like Dena Designs, Amy Butler, Betz White, Khristian Howell, etc. I’ve learned so much from listening to her interviews! So, so worth it!

Thank you Monica for the great morning together!

Enjoy!

    I was struck by your early attention to your customers’ feedback as a key not only to fine tuning your style but to capturing the imagination of your buyers. Do you still try to sample your audience even though you have by now found your “voice”?

    I absolutely adore your illustrations and I so appericate you sharing how you got started. Good luck on everything you have going on and yet to come in the near future.

    ps..I could totally see the cartoon. Your illustrations remind me of the classic winnie the pooh theme which is still an all time fav.

    At my local fabric store, Fabric Nosherie in Webster Groves, MO, I purchased an embroidery kit that you designed (Three Birds) – not knowing who Sarah Jane was but just loved the birds and flower boxes. Then, I listen to Monica’s interviews weekly and low and behold this was the woman that created the embroidery pattern I just bought. SARAH JANE!!!! I love those serendipitous moments. Very fun and thanks for sharing your story – it’s very encouraging and helpful!
