I am a huge fan of Vera Neumann. I have an embarrassingly large collection of her table linens, an umbrella, a few sheet sets and numerous scarves of her design.  I was telling a friend the other day about Vera as I also described the awesome tablecloth (seen above) that I scored at an antique market.

You can learn oodles more about Vera here. This month as I pursue watercolors for my year of creative habits, I am searching out Vera’s images and letting myself be influenced by her amazing style, the bold colors, the line work and the the use of flowers, vegetables and other flora in her work.
