Earlier this year I was contacted by a representative of Faber- Castell with regards to having my artwork included in a 19 page brochure they were creating for 2014 featuring artists, who use their Pitt Artist Pens, from all over the world! I was extremely complimented and delighted that my work would be included in this project, along with so many other talented artists, to say the least.
Faber-Castell emailed me a copy of the brochure a while back, but with all that was going on with Mom and Jim, I just kinda forgot about it. Yesterday, while cleaning up the mess of saved files on my desktop, I came across the PDF file I had received from them. Today I "Googled" how to change pdf format into jpeg format so that I could share a portion of the brochure with all of you.
I have condensed the brochure to include the first 5 pages and page 11, the page on which my work is featured. If any of you would like to see the brochure in its entirety, let me know and I will be happy to email a pdf file to you.
Here is my condensed version of the brochure:
and here is a full page copy of page 11 (my page!) ...
I was lucky enough to be able to share this honor with my Mom before she passed, I think she was kinda proud of her eldest daughter ... :)
Now I am proud to share this sweet honor with all of you ...
Take care and be happy!
Big hugs,
Karen Anne
