<p>Ahh, the “about” section. Here is where we talk about how, even as a child, Penny Richards Eversole was creating things out of paper, drawing and planting the seeds of what would eventually lead to a career in graphic design. And then, how a little experiment with designing greeting cards blossomed (sounds lovelier to say blossomed than to get into the tough reality of growing a small business) into a business creating paper goods and other products which are sold all over the US, in Canada, and in other, farther-away parts of the world.</p>
<p>Today, Pinkerton is run out of a small studio in Seattle’s Phinney Ridge neighborhood. All the designs are the work of owner and designer Penny Eversole, and reflect a love of color, illustration, pattern, typography, printing and paper. Other inspirations include her grandma’s quilts, her parents’ old cookbooks (tuna-filled jello as an entree? fantastic!), signage from the 50’s, Ed Emberley’s drawing books, and Seattle’s strange and beautiful plants.</p>
