In today's episode we will dive into the story of Rebecca Woolbright.  Rebecca is a licensed surface pattern designer and the artist behind the brand Rebecca Jane Woolbright. Her goal is to wrap the world in color. She is obsessed with patterns and symmetry and enjoys the process of manufacturing her own products to sell in stores worldwide.

In this episode we get to know Roberta Montorfano, founder of Betta Designs. Roberta is an Italian-Mexican artist. Raised in Como, Italy, she grew up steeped in the vivid interplay of colors, textiles, history, and art.

For Roberta, the art of storytelling is embodied in design, art, photography, and colors.  
After immersing herself in textile design for five years in Italy, and actively participating in textile fairs across the globe, a turning point emerged in 2013. Fueled by a deep-seated passion and the pursuit of her dreams, she made the choice to pack her bags and set her sights on Sydney. 
After a few years of calling Australia home, Roberta created her studio, Betta Design in 2015. She believes that everyone can tell stories through design, art, photography and colours. That they are all a portrait of your soul, history, family and generation you carry with you.
