Above, our booth sign for the show designed by Clairice Gifford.

Giant thanks to all of you who stopped by to say hello or check out our work at Surtex! It was our best show yet, with tons of clients and appointments, and a few zany antics.

Here are our artists Carolyn Gavin and Helen Dardik taking a breather during a quiet moment at our booth. Do you like the navy linen tablecloths? Take a look at all those gorgeous portfolios! Didn’t make the show? Contact us to see pdfs of the books, or request a gallery of specific work. We’re happy to help.
