Just In: Martyn Lawrence Bullard and Mary McDonald for Schumacher

Although I rarely have time to go to events, there was no way I was missing Martyn Lawrence Bullard‘s and Mary McDonald‘s visit to the Boston Design Center last Tuesday. I showered, dressed in J.Crew color block brights, and was on my way, Rizzoli books in hand to be signed. The occasion was to promote the designers’ new textile lines, Martyn Lawrence Bullard for Schumacher and Mary McDonald for Schumacher. They were absolutely charming (Martyn’s accent is too die for).

I’ve emailed several times with Mary and interviewed Martyn on the phone for stories. Both graciously insisted they remembered me. (Doubtful, but nice of them to say!) Mary said she knows my blog; that she recalls its cute and clever name. We are FB friends, so I suppose it’s possible. As I said, they were utterly charming. Must be hard to have to be so *on* with so many strangers at so many events.

I snapped a bunch of Instagram pics of the fabrics for you. I have more from MLB’s line than MM’s line because my iPhone/Instagram went on the fritz, likely from overuse. Ok, now here are the Schumacher Designer Collaborations.

ARTmonday: Keegan Gibbs’ Surfer Photos

I came across an image by surfer/photographer Keegan Gibbs a few days ago and followed the link through to his site. I love the atmospheric beach shots in his portfolio. He has a blog too, where he posts on his most current adventures with photos, like snowy mountain fun in Big Bear, a photo shoot for RVCA in Hawaii, and his annual journey to Sumatra, and that’s only in the space of four months. Just getting in the mood for summer. Memorial Day is this weekend after all, and we’re definitely beach bound.
