Eloise Corr Danch is a brooklyn based designer and artist. Beginning her studies at the University of Montana, Danch honed her skills into painting and illustration. While she continued her studies at 3 other schools, she recieved her Masters of Arts in Illustration in 2007. Her resume is impressive as she has a long list of skills and expertise and awards. Danch has scored mega clients such as Anthropologie, Macy's and Sony Entertainment Group, just to name a few.
Danch has started to rise in fame, as her work with Macy's has attracted the likes of Martha Stewart. Danch handcrafted 2,500 handmade paper flowers which were arranged into swirling garlands and 20 ornate headdresses. These were shown in the store's 23 display windows at Macy's New York flagship at Heralds square in 2009. The display is breathtaking, not only in the multitude of the flowers but also with the bright colors and crisp details. This work managed to capture Martha Stewart's interest and Danch was featured on the television show, creating large paper poppies.
I've been carefully studying Danch's few images and those I find on art blogs so that I could gain some knowledge of her paper craft. What I would give to be able to have a solid understanding of her technique! I'm jealous because she is able to build a variety of flowers where as the few I have made resemble a floral form.
