Jonathan Adler

Jonathan Alder  works for Happy Chic. He became known in 1994 for his pottery and is now working as an interior designer. He spent all his time at RISD making pots while people thought he was studying at Brown. After his pottery became popular and orders were pouring in, he began to work with Aid to Artisans. Jonathan Alder is creative, obsessed and ever expanding with new areas of design. His first design sold was Barney's New York. He worked with Starbuck  to create a limited edition Ceramic To-Go Cup and Gift Card that benefits (Red) and The Global Fund to improve the lives of those living with HIV. Adler is also a highly sought-after interior designer for luxury residential projects as well as large-scale commercial projects like the celebrity hot spot Parker Palm Springs Hotel and the High Roller suites at Planet Hollywood Las Vegas.

Hello :)

             Hi my name is Haley and I am a senior in high school. WELCOME TO MY BLOG! I am taking a Functional Art Class (Interior Design class). Anyways....I am three months away from total freedom!!!! Well kind of, I am going to college in the fall so my freedom will be short lived. I will be majoring in science and I hope to become a nurse. I also will be taking some art classes on the side. My favorite things to do in art are painting and sculpting. Also in my spare time I love to bowl and shop (what girl doesn't?).
             As an artist I love painting in abstract. I love abstract because people can take whatever they want from the piece of art, there are no prior "expectations." I also love modern interior design and Jonathan Adler is an inspiration at me. He has very modern design and mixes old with new and makes a very elegant yet fun feel to a room.
            In this blog I would like to explore the world of blogging and hopefully have my artwork viewed and recieve some feedback. Hope you enjoy! :)
