Two years ago a seed was planted in my life vision..... I was tired of just being a fine artist, and wanted to share my designs with the world, via licensing. An artist friend of mine, Mary Esneault had the same vision. So we joined forces to help each other and encourage each other.
Flash back to June 2013, Mary and I decided we needed to go to the largest Licensing Expo in the world. So we packed out bags and headed to Las Vegas to walk the show floor.
15,000 people showed up!!!! I decided that this is where I needed to be. We attended LIMA which is the Licensing University that runs during the Expo. It didn't frighten us off.
While there we enjoyed the keynote speaker, Gwyneth Paltrow.

| SOME DAY I WILL BE STANDING HERE!!!!! |
So I started, my design work began to change...... geared more for the commercial sector, yes.... I was crossing the line from Fine Art to Commercial Art.
Everything I created for the shows I was exhibiting in were subtly being designed for the market place, fabric design, book covers, stationary. My collections were beginning to become cohesive.
In October I took the plunge and registered as an exhibitor at the 2014 Licensing Expo. Mary did the same and we are now DUNMIRE ESNEAULT CONTEMPORARY DESIGNS You will see us in the Design & Art section G24.
I will share with you my journey, my challenges and expectations as I prepare for my Grand Debut. Keep watch, I plan on making a huge splash into these deep waters and you will be coming along for the ride.
