Hello there! I'm Anne LaFollette.
Were you creative as a child but the idea of pursuing your passion was "poo-poohed" by those around you?
Did you love to doodle pretty much all the time and occasionally that got you into trouble at school?
How about this? You really wanted to go to art school but your parents wouldn't let you because: "You can't make any money at that."
Well, my friend, the world has changed! It's entirely possible to share your art with the world and get it manufactured on products IN REAL LIFE!
My story isn't that unique. I spent 30 years in a corporate job until, out of the blue, my boss eliminated my job. In retrospect, it was the best thing that ever happened because I'd probably still be in that job if he hadn't handed me a pink slip.
Leaning into my creativity at the age of 58 was challenging. I didn't know where to start or what I wanted to do exactly... until I discovered Surface Design. I'd never heard of it but after making my first repeating pattern, I was hooked!
I've created this Doodles Coaching Week to introduce you to the wonderful world of surface design which, along with teaching, is my passion.
This Coaching Week is the perfect place to start. Join us. I know you'll love it.
xo,
Anne
