Soon the collection rocked into the modern realm of bold colors and fun, retro patterns. All the while taking Amie Needham's designs to the next level. In the Fall/Winter '09 issue of Brides Houston Magazine!

Mark Roland

THE KAPLAN COLLECTION You can share a piece of Heights history. From the 1920's until
January of 2006 Kaplan's-Ben Hur served the residents of Houston as a
department store providing everything from baby blankets to Tiffany
lamps. Through the generosity of Martin Kaplan and Rex Bass, fused
glass artist Mark Roland was the fortunate recipient of a portion of
the original glass shelving which once held these items. That shelving,
complete with scratches and imperfections from decades of
use, has been recycled into useful plates, bowls, and platters for a
unique memory of a Houston classic.

| Sheri Simpson
I just started painting seriously in 2007 and I’m truly enjoying myself. I’ve always played around with the idea of being an artist since I was a young girl. I also love science, and I believe having a good analytical mind is half the battle at being a good artist. I received both of my degrees from the University of New Orleans—BS in Biology and MS in Geology with a Chemistry minor. I work as a geochemist, doing some really cool stuff in a water lab. But I think I can finally call myself an artist too. |

Freedom Blocks are here!!
Nathan and Rosemary Meskell are launching a new kid-run enterprise. They sell 20-piece quality Maple hardwood children's block sets. They are snazzy, mostly post-production scrap wood that has been cut and sanded into a variety of shapes and come in recycled canvas bags. (The bags are pretty funky.)
Each bag and each block set is unique and they're all cool. Even better, the sets are only $15 each and the profits will be donated to APPLE. APPLE is a small nonprofit dedicated to using community outreach and education to end child slavery in fishing villages in Lake Volta in Ghana. Check them out. http://www.freetheslaves.net/Page.aspx?pid=247 VERY SNAPPY. (the blocks, not Rosie and Nathan.) RECYCLED!! FUN!! STOMPS SLAVERY!!! email


Medium is scrap steel. The works follow a number of different themes from floral to intensely human.
