last year saks 5th avenue, NY commissioned marian bantjes to draw 25 snowflakes for their ’08 christmas season.
‘I drew some like feathers, like antlers, with little people, one made all of houses, some like sparkly lights, a hairy one, a few like ribbons, some were complex and three dimensional, others simple and flat …‘ MB
the snowflakes have been used for saks’ christmas catalogue, gift cards, shopping bags and even jewellery.
