Destination Products Rolls Into Venue for June Artwalk

Designer Leslie Pierson loves travel, typography, and distinctive design - and Destination Rolls are a powerful synthesis of her favorite things. The inspiration for the featured line of Destination Products came from a find in a vintage shop of a British destination roll that had been used on a train in the early 1900. These rolls were hand cranked by the conductors to display the next stop. The nature of Leslie’s simple design allows customers to create customized lists bounded only by imagination.

This month at Venue, Leslie will be showcasing some great destinations in Seattle and the Pacific Northwest on black & white destination rolls, prints, stretched canvas, greeting cards, and even pendants.

Leslie says, “Two of the most exciting questions you can ask anyone are: ‘Where are you going?’ and ‘Where have you been?” Her Destination Rolls can document your favorite places in the world – or the future travels of your dreams. Bon voyage!

Portrait of a Flower:
“Flowers have an expression of countenance as much as men or animals. Some seem to smile; some have a sad expression; some are pensive and diffident; others again are plain, honest and upright, like the broad-faced sunflower and the hollyhock.”
Henry Ward Beecher

Christy is available for portraiture, video and fine art commission.
