Colorful Damasks

Here is another sneak peak at one of my newest collections "Colorful Damasks". I'll be showing this collection, along with 15 other brand new collections, will be shown in booth #357 Sunday, May 19-Tuesday, May 21. If you're a licensee, I'd love to meet you and show you some of my 35 collections or if you can't make it to the show, please contact me at tammy@tammysmithdesign.com for a password to view my collections page.

For those of you who don't know about Surtex, it's a surface design trade show that I exhibit at every year in NYC. Over 300 artists exhibit their surface design work in the hopes of being able to license it to companies for their products. It is held in conjunction with the Stationery Show and the ICFF (International Contemporary Furniture Fair).

2013 promo packets

These little wire birds are getting ready to fly East next week! They are part of my promo packets for the press room at Surtex.

Feathered Finery group

This is another new group that I'm showing at this year's Surtex show-coming up very soon. I have done this group in many different color ways but here I'm showing it as partyware and giftbags that are primarily pink. Perfect for a bridal shower or feminine bday!

Fall In Love pillow

Booth decor is my favorite part of Surtex. I've been really into hand embroidery lately so here's a pillow I've created from one of my hand lettering pieces.

New Patterns for 2013 Surtex-Musicality and Lock and Key

This week I'm going to start showing some of my new collections that will be debuting at Surtex this year.

 Below are Musicality and Lock and Key. Last year I focused on mostly abstract patterns so this year I'm doing more illustrative work. More to come tomorrow!

So excited that my article and ad are now out in the latest Art Buyer magazine! Shown in the article are my "Best In Show" dog portraits. For Surtex, I'm making these lucky pups into bright, funky hand-stitched pillows. Click on this link to read the entire piece.
