20 Questions with Simply Hue’s Vicki
I’ve been admiring Vicki’s blog for some time now, and she was kind enough to answer some of my questions. Make sure to check out her site, Simply Hue, for lots of inspiring color palettes and articles with a special focus on artists and designers.
1. What did you have for breakfast this morning?
A leftover chicken enchilada. :)
2. What do you find most inspiring about where you live?
We live about an hour from Seattle in a small rural town. I love that we’re surrounded by farmland but can drive to Seattle if we need our fix of the city.
3. What kind of music are you into lately?
I’m pretty boring when it comes to my music. I like a lot of the old artists like “The Eagles”, “Elton John”, “Fleetwood Mac”, and “Jim Croche” (sp?) I also enjoy Jason Mraz and Colby Caillat and I listen to most of my teens’ music as long as it’s not Rap.
4. You are a color consultant – how did you get into that, and what exactly does that entail?
I’ve always loved interior design and architecture but my degree is in Recreation Leadership. At 44 I didn’t have the energy/motivation to go back to college, so I took a color consulting course and began looking for clients shortly after I completed it.
5. What got you into blogging?
I was online doing a search for decorating websites and came across several popular decorating blogs. To be honest, I didn’t even know what a blog was until that time! In high school I always enjoyed essays because I could draw or paste pictures onto the pages and blogging brings me that same satisfaction. It’s like putting together one long essay and working on it a little bit each day. (more…)
