Textile Origin Story:

In 2017 we did a trip to Eastern Europe. The itinerary included Krakow to see one of my bucket list paintings. Leonardo da Vinci's Lady with an Ermine had been in storage for over a decade because of renovations. Without good information on whether or not it would be on display, we hit the road. To our delight we found that it was featured in a different location with its own exhibit! One of our stops was the Czartoryski Museum in Krakow; which was Izabela Czartoryski's palace. This is the typical home of the da Vinci. She was an amazing collector. The museum includes her residence along with a gallery of highlighted pieces. Her Raphael painting was never recovered from the Nazis who stole it in WWII (along with the aforementioned da Vinci and a Rembrandt, both recovered and returned by the Monuments Men). I snapped just a few photos of what seemed like hand-painted leather wall coverings done in individual squares. I used the photos as a starting point for two textile designs. I had just a corner of the piece that became the textile Izzy named for the Czartoryski matriarch.

Happy customers bike, ski, hike, and surf in these stylishly appointed raglan cut moisture-wicking athletic shirts. With a UPF of 50+ there is no need to fret about being in the sunshine. These are among my favorite pieces to design as it is an excellent canvas for mixing patterns from my bespoke textile collection.
