It would be great if you would like to get involved, of course I would credit you and your company.’~We had an email from an old friend – how lovely she took the time to write:~Hi Katrina, I don’t expect you will remember me. I came to one of your open days a few years ago. I still get information from the Institute and I was interested to read about your study days. They sound absolutely fantastic. I’ve also had a good look round your website. You clearly are very skilled in marketing and talented in design. The reason I’m writing is purely to say well done. I think your attitude and inspiration are brilliant and I wish you and Matt all the very best in the future. Kind regards Maggie~Had an email from Robert.Good day Katrina, First thank you for doing your post on my work. Your blog and your network connections were the spark for the “blowup” of the Terraforms. Just google robert cannon sculpture or terraform sculpture to see how the work is being shown around the globe on websites, magazines, and even amazingly books, the website registered over 750 hits one day this month. You are a very good mover and shaker. I can also say that I really respect the artistry of your design work, which is not often the case with typical mover and shaker types. Your plant, material, and color choices and general aesthetics are compelling. With that in mind I am wondering if you would be interested in collaborating with me on a design for a huge duplex penthouse terrace in Manhattan with stunning views of the Hudson River. The owners have mentioned wanting something of an English terrace garden. They like classic designs typologies, despite the fact that the new building they’ve moved into is typical Miami Beach Minimaximal Modern. As my practice has become quite specialized, I am hoping to find a landscape design talent like you and your firm to come up with a design, it could be installed by a local firm. The details of working transcontinentally would be a challenge but hopefully not insurmountable. If you are interested please let me know. All the best, Robert
