It's taken me a long time to finally try to write an update on what's happening with my artwork - life is going at a gazillion miles an hour right now, and like many of us, being the constant juggler has become my reality - being a good Mom, Partner, Friend, Sister, Spiritual Being, Activist, Creative Person and Business Person. But alas, some things just have to take a back seat sometimes. But here I am now, and I'm so excited to be actually focusing on writing my news.

It's been a fantastic year with lots of new exciting stuff on the horizon - this coming Christmas being the most fabulous time for my work yet.

I'm thrilled to announce that there will be a Debbie Taylor-Kerman Christmas tree at Macy's top doors. Elliott and I visited Willowbrook Mall, NJ in August to preview it and I was just so overjoyed. Having my Mom there too, who was visiting from Scotland, and who was beaming with pride, was the added bonus and made it all the more fulfilling. Look out for the lime green tinsel tree with “The Tree Angels and their Fluffy Friends”.

I'm absolutely delighted that Kohl's is carrying the “Snowmates” dinnerware for a staggering fourth year. I created several new scenes with the “Snowmates” merrily enjoying the Christmas spirit, and Oneida created many new fabulous products for the line.

The other sensational news is that Target is doing an end-cap with dinnerware and accessories from the “Petite Snowmen” and “Frosty Feathers” series, as well as the boxed dinnerware set of "St. Nick”.

Lastly, JC Penney is debuting two patterns for dinnerware - “Snow Family Fun” and “Sporting Snowmen”. I have to say, that this is doubly exciting because they are also doing matching table linens and kitchen accessories, which is just fantastic.

Knowing that the Holiday Season is about to come up upon us, and knowing my crazy schedule, I probably won't get the chance to touch base before. So I want to thank you all for your wonderful support of my artwork and the products. I want to thank you also for your kind emails and generous words about my work and I really do appreciate hearing from you.

I wish you and yours a joyful and peace filled festive season and as we say in Glasgow - Awraveribest!

Blessings!

Debbie
