Celebrating Our Children’s Successes

There is nothing quite like watching your children work toward their dreams and succeed in their passions. Our daughters have been busy creating and exploring all summer, and we’re proud to share their latest accomplishments with you.

New York City-based artist featured on Brixton   

Our daughter, Kelly Pastorek, has always had a profound passion for the arts. While clay is most often her medium of choice, she also takes joy in paper, pattern, and color. Her beautiful and unique work has a soulful appeal, and her fans include the clothing design team at Brixton, who recently featured Kelly’s work on their blog.

Showcasing her at work, the day-long photo essay provides insight into Kelly’s creative process at Earthworks, a teaching studio located in the Upper East Side. To get another inside look at her creations, visit her instagram account where she posts regularly.

Interested in experiencing Kelly’s work in person? Sip a local pilsner from one of her custom beer steins at Prime Meats in Brooklyn. Enthusiasts can also commission their own original pieces—gorgeous mugs and customized cake stands are favorites—by contacting Kelly through her website. (And don’t forget to say hi when you see her around our office!)

A vivid trip to the Old South

Both of our daughters recently had a wonderful opportunity to do a little traveling down South while filming a spot for Conde Nast Traveler. From handmade truffles to old oaks dripping with Spanish moss, their adventures in Savannah, Georgia just might inspire you to book your own long weekend in this storied Southern city.

Our hearts continue to swell with pride for our wonderful daughters. We cannot wait to see what else they do!
