The Birth of Driftwear
The Birth of Driftwear
My student Isabella Whitney is the proud owner & designer of the new brand Driftwear. She is completeling her senior thesis/focus project soon by developing this brand and it launches April 19th!
I am so very proud of her work and her accomplishments and I wanted to share them with all of you.
Many people aren't aware of all of the nuances and complexities involved in developing a product line, brand and indie biz. Isabella has done a fantastic job documenting all of those things in her blog- The Birth of Driftwear.
In addition, she has approached marketing wisely, creating guerilla art (I blogged about what Guerilla Art is two years ago- check it out here!) marketing campaigns and using the stop- motion fever my hub and I imparted on our students to promote the brand. I already have three of her designs that I'm interested in purchasing!
PSSSTTT- SECRET... another giveaway opportunity is in the works to celebrate the Driftwear launch!

I can't wait for her website to open, I've been excited since I saw her doing the block prints in Swartley. I want to do something like that, it would be so nice * w *
