SHOW NOTES

 

  • Your floral wig design featured in your first video had a more of a wedding vibe - this time around your next design is completely avant-garde. Can you talk a bit about the difference between the two flower designs and also the different design mechanics that you used?
    • used about 100 stems of amaranthus

  • You have done a great range of floral projects ranging from working with a lighting company to the drag community - what are some of your most memorable projects?

  • I know you can't talk about who some of your high-profile clients are, but how do you get these types of clients?

  • It seems like you found the sweet spot where your clients let you do what you want, How did you get to the place?

  • How do you deal with customers who are pickier? Do you turn them down or embrace the challenge?

  • Let’s talk inspiration … where do you get your inspiration from?

  • Once you are inspired, what is your creative process - taking your inspiration to realization?

  • What career goals have you set for the next 5 years?
