It consists of a few, intentionally limited designs that are permanent and built to last. Observations are different. They're also built to last, but they add another layer by incorporating designs inspired by what I see and experience in Motril. Small things, details, moments found in my surroundings that catch my attention and won't let go. I sketch these moments, carve them into Lino, and print them onto leather in limited runs. They're tied to specific moments of paying attention.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis observation celebrates the Cherry Tomato.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eA valet\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cstrong\u003etray that's also a small work of art.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis valet tray features a hand-carved cherry tomato design printed on the interior bottom. Keys, wallet, phone, watch - hold what matters to you on your desk, nightstand, or entryway table. Each print is unique. The interior is fully lined with soft, olive-green goatskin that echoes the foliage in the Lino design. It's both practical and beautiful. Handmade and hand-printed in Motril, Spain.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat it's inspired by:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThere's just something about Motril, located on the Costa Tropical. If you've been here, you'll understand it; the light, the warmth, the abundance of fresh, local fruits and veggies year-round. I buy so much fresh produce from small, specialty shops that dot the city, and cherry tomatoes are a must-have in my kitchen at all times. Green vines with ripe, sweet little tomatoes clustered on them, just picked that morning. I appreciate their local importance and have certainly eaten my weight in cherry tomatoes over the years. For those reasons, I've decided to translate and celebrate this appreciation into Lino prints. This is the first of my Observations Collection.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe design is hand-carved, then printed one by one onto the interior bottom square for each tray in this limited series using traditional print methods.

Every single stitching hole is hand-punched. Every stitch is sewn by hand. The interior is carefully lined with goatskin, then reinforced on the inner bottom with a robust, hand-sewn square panel for durability and structure. The Lino design is carefully translated and carved, then printed onto each reinforcement piece. The edges are all sanded, beveled, smoothed with a burnishing cream, protected with beeswax, and buffed.
