It usually occurs that till I arrive at an occasion I do not fairly know what to anticipate: is it just for invited friends, will I be in the course of a store throughout regular commerce, or will it’s a celebration the place my desk is subsequent to the DJ’s audio system.
This time I knew that the advertising occasion the place I’d draw reside would happen within the Alsterhaus division retailer in Hamburg, that the consumer was La Prairie and that it might be good if I used to be wearing white. I believed we might be subsequent to the La Prairie counter, in the course of the cosmetics division.
What a beautiful shock to stroll into the rooms that had been to be my office that afternoon. Two great suites on the fifth ground, on the sting of the Binnenalster, the large expanse of water reflecting the sunshine that flooded in by means of the home windows that lined your complete width of the rooms. The décor was beautiful. My desk was snug and exquisite with its centrepiece of flowers.
I knew earlier than I even began that all the pieces was going to be nice: how might I not really feel comfortable drawing in these circumstances?
I spent 4 hours having fun with the place, the corporate and my watercolours. Attempting to seize in a couple of minutes the essence of the friends and their trend sense. I appear to have succeeded, no less than with the girl who informed me:
“You may have seen one thing in me that I’ve dreamed of”.
Properly, what extra might I ask for.
To be trustworthy, I used to be significantly proud of the outcomes of my brushes that afternoon. Now it may be tough to seek out an occasion to match this one. However we all know: the universe all the time offers extra.
