The Ever Expanding Blog Post

I was recently tagged by the beautiful and talented Lauren of Lauren Winter to do 'The Ever Expanding Blog Post', which is a series of questions that makers/designers ask themselves in a self-interview then tag other makers/designers that they admire. Thank you Lauren for inviting me!

What am I working on?

I am in the process of working on several different collaborations with various designers that I truly admire and respect so I am very excited about each one of the projects. Can't say too much about them now but they will all be releasing in the next month or so. Other than that I will get started on my next collection for spring, which I have so many ideas for spinning in my head/ sketchbook.

How does my work differ from others of its genre?

Oof, this is a hard question. I think it may differ because it is constantly evolving. I'm not sure if there is a specific or certain 'Young Frankk' look because I like to constantly be thinking ahead by bettering myself and my work, whether its exploring different techniques, materials or styles.

Why do I create what I do?

I've always been a creative person, always drawing, painting or sewing or making random things growing up but I never thought I'd do jewelry, which is a craft that I discovered after graduating college for Illustration. But I always knew I wanted to start my own line where I'd be designing and making my own products and so this was the perfect outlet. I love what I do and am continuously growing from this huge learning experience. I also feel so grateful to be a part of an amazing community of independent makers, designers and boutiques that support products that are made by hand locally.

How does my creative process work?

It always starts with a sketch, sometimes right before I go to bed, I'll get an idea and then I'll have to get up and sketch it down immediately. I get my inspiration for a new collection from everywhere and anything, whether its fashion, nature, photography, interior design or graphic design. It all is so informative.
