SURTEX 2014 – last day

As tired as I am – I would LOVE for this show to go on all week! We have had a really great time, seeing old friends and making new ones! The work from the show promises to be more than any previous year. The excitement and true enthusiasm for the artwork was immeasurable. We have our bags packed and we are headed back to Boston, already looking forward to next year! Until then, remember, “great art great vibes buy art” – Jennifer

SURTEX 2014 – day 2

Wow – the fun never stops. Today we were visited by home decor, stationery, gift, children’s product, and several large retailer clients. Susan and I are tired – but loving every minute of it. If you have not made it to the booth – come quick. Tomorrow is the last day, I am sorry to say – and the show ends early.

ART DIRECTORS: Please stop by – we are eager to see you! We are at Booth 317. ARTISTS: We would love to see you as well – but this show is all about the clients. Please visit us online or via a follow up after the show! Many thanks for your understanding! – Jennifer

Surtex NYC 2009!

Surtex was fantastic. So much fun; so great for business.

Here’s our booth, all seats taken with a line waiting to see books. It went on like this for most of the three days. That’s Susan M on the upper right showing Suzy Ultman’s portfolio.dsc04141.jpg

Here’s Mike Lowery. He came up from Atlanta and brought his students with him. He’s making Julia and Susan laugh. blogdsc04138.jpg

More books and stuff.dsc04171.jpg

Another shot of our booths with very focused art directors. That’s the teNeues folks in the middle. Check out Suzy Ultman’s stufftie hanging on the wall. It’s brown with the heart in the middle. Too cute.dsc04158.jpg

Here he is big:

Carolyn Gavin and my mom in front of the booths. Land of Nod and Grace Bonney of design*sponge blog are at our booths, too. How fantastic. My mom was an amazing business person and incredible artist, ahead of her time. She’s 84 and came out from the end of the North Fork of Long Island with my sister to see us. It made my day.

Jamie of Land of Nod and Susan McCabe having fun. I gave Jamie the award (verbally) for best scarf of show.dsc04168.jpg

Thought you’d like to see the books and some of the samples and give-aways. On the right was a baby and juvi compilation I made for the show.dsc04170.jpg

There’s Julia and Susan and a bit of the beautiful Grace Bonney of design*sponge. All I’m going to tell you is that Grace and I had a fascinating discussion about something we want to do together. Trust me; it’s going to be fabulous.

Susan M and Allison Cole. Susan was showing someone Allison’s bag which Allison made herself. Probably Susan was showing a manufacturer and wanted to get them to make these bags.dsc04179.jpg

Kristin of Chronicle. We love her. We had some REALLY good ideas for something. It ties into the Grace Bonney/design*sponge thing. I hope I’m tantalizing you.dsc04183.jpg

Here’s a picture of Kristin taking a picture of Suzy Ultman’s doll.

Here’s a point in the show where we had Chronicle, Crate & Barrel, and another group at our booth. How amazing was that? We were kinda blown away.

One great thing was that we got to meet the wonderful reps, Chrystal Falcioni of Magnet and Frank Sturges. Here’s our Susan and Frank. Was great to talk shop.
dsc04149.jpg

Here’s Susan’s family. Check out her cute boys. They are fun, cool kids. Check out all the books on the table for clients to see. That’s probably my water bottle on the left. I was allowed to leave it on the table if I was sure to keep the cap on. We had no coffee spills. Amazing. Aren’t the banners beautiful?
dsc04147.jpg

Here’s Susan Farrington (on right) and Carolyn Gavin of Ecojot. We went out to dinner at a South African restaurant one night. Carolyn is from South Africa and now lives in Toronto.

It was great fun.
