My major breakthrough, with respect to the look of my furniture, came many years ago while looking through a fabric book. I was suddenly confronted by this intensely vivid yellow velvet. The color was so strong and powerful it scared me. Up until that point there was no yellow in my work. Rather than be intimidated by a color I bought some of that yellow fabric and my color palette was immediately transformed. The yellow dragged in all the other fabrics I now adore. Now, I love yellow and have a hard time making furniture without it.
