DESIGNING DIGITAL COLOR at the Cooper Hewitt

The Cooper Hewitt Museum on Fifth Avenue…..part of the Smithsonian………is in the Andrew Carnegie Mansion…….

The Museum itself is as unique as the exhibitions.

Gallery Goer……..and the map of the state of Michigan………

Me…….in the wallpaper room……….in front of a wallpaper that I designed.

Art before digital………and the creation of art today created digitally.

Renate………a fashion designer………is visiting from Paris……..so we toured the exhibit together.

The museum has a garden…..perfect for a lunch break………

 

EASTER PARADE on 5TH Avenue

Ale B MAKEUP was on 5th Avenue with her FASCINATOR hats.

Her philosophy…….LOVE WHO YOU ARE………..with her make-up line.

KEEP IT SIMPLE.  KEEP IT HEALTHY.  KEEP IT YOU.

The top floor with the gold ceiling is an observation deck for you and your friends……..

The Russian architecture firm of MEGANOM will design it.

EASTER PARADE • nyc 2017 • Tom and Margo and Jane

We first met years ago in the Easter Parade.……….and have remained friends…….sharing our love for hats………..Easter and otherwise.

Margo made the hats for Jane and herself….POM POMS…..Birdies and Feathers.

Margo and Karan……..sans Easter Hat……..but next year he says………

Fifth Avenue early in the morning before thew tourists descend.

Charming child………eggs and a birdie too.

This group of ladies created some of the most spectacular hats in the parade.

Jane passed out a basket full of lollies and eggs to tiny children in the parade.

I din’t have the time to create a new hat…………luckily I saved the one I made last year.  A German tourist insisted on buying it……….$100……$200……..final offer, $300.

 [No. She does not work for United Airlines].

Nancy Kwan and her papermania hat.  We loved it.

I promised them next year I would wear my Easter suit.  This year it was 82º .  HOT HOT HOT
