This past weekend I did a workshop with the Senior Designer, Jane Hong, from David Yurman! Let me tell you, I am thrilled I had this opportunity and decided to do this. Only 15 slots were open. It was so nice to have a break from the usual teachers (not that I don't love them.) It was just a different pace and face.
We had to create a mood board before the class and had to choice to design eye wear or watches based off of our mood boards... Since I have never done watches nor eye wear, I decided to stick with watches. In my head, it is similar to jewelry sketches. We sketched 9am-5pm Friday and Saturday with critiques and "one on ones" with Jane in between. Then Sunday, we were to have rendered sketches of a collection. Talk about FUN!
My mood was creating layers and tantalizing textures. The ideal woman would be a quirky, trend setter, who loves to layer, mix patterns, juxtapose textures, and pile her jewelry on.
See mood board below:
Jane was seriously such a sweet woman. It made me really question if I want to do more fabrication, or design... I still don't know for sure yet, but I do know that becuase of my hard work (and two hours of sleep the night before our collection was due) I am able to be in a Sponsored Class for Limited next quarter!!!!!!! You hear that!? :) EKKK!!!! I am smiling ear to ear... I'm not suppose to talk about it much, so just know it's exciting and great news! :)
See Jane (the pretty one in front of me) and the rest of my classmates below:
Maybe I am in love with what I do... Even if I just have a job in the creative business one day. I will be happy.
Ps. I go to NYC SO SO SO SOOOON! :)
