篇一：Engelbreits the Name, Cute Is My Game
Mary Engelbreit was a talented but struggling artist in her mid-twenties when she flew to New York from her native Saint Louis, hoping to find work illustrating children's books — her life's goal. So she was disappointed when all the book publishers she visited turned her down. One even suggested her drawings might be better suited to greeting cards.
"I was crushed," Engelbreit admits. Greeting cards seemed a come-down from her high expectations, but the advice stayed with her, and she decided to give it a try. The results transformed her life forever.
玛丽是一个有才华但挣扎的艺术家在她二十多岁时，她飞到纽约，从她的家乡圣路易斯，希望能找到工作，说明儿童书籍-人生目标。所以她很失望，当所有的图书出版商拒绝了她，她参观了。一个甚至建议她图纸可能更适合于贺卡。 Mary "I was crushed," Engelbreit admits. Greeting cards seemed a come-down from her high expectations, but the advice stayed with her, and she decided to give it a try. The results transformed her life forever. “我被承认，“漫画。贺卡似乎因为从她的期望很高，但建议就陪她，她决定给它一试。结果永远改变了她的人生。
Today Mary Engelbreit sells an astonishing 14 million greeting cards a year. Her popular designs appear on more than 2,000 products, including books,
calendars, and kitchen items. She runs a retail company with shops in nine cities (16 more are planned), and her products are carried by 25,000 retailers. Annual retail sales are in the $100 million range — all as a result of that fateful,
disappointing trip to New York. It's probably no accident that one of Engelbreit's bolder cards shows a young girl in overalls, her bare feet up on a desk, a farm field in the window behind her. "We Don't Care How They Do It in New York," the card boasts.
今天玛丽销售了惊人的14000000贺卡一年。她受欢迎的设计出现在超过2000种产品，包括书籍，日历，和厨房用品。她经营一家零售公司的九个城市（16计划），和她的产品由25000个零售商。年度零售额在100000000美元的范围-所有结果是灾难性的，令人失望的纽约之旅。它可能不是偶然的一个漫画的大胆的卡显示一个年轻女孩，她赤裸的脚的桌子上，一场在身后的窗户。”我们不在乎他们如何做，在纽约，“卡拥有。
Once you know Engelbreit's distinctive style, you can recognize her cards from 20 paces away — bright, funny, and with an eye to the past. Her cards usually have elaborate border designs comprised of repeated images: hearts, flowers, peaches, and teapots, for example. Most often, there's Ann Estelle, a woman with short, straight hair, big glasses, hat and an acid tongue. Ann Estelle (named after her grandmother) is the imaginary representative of Mary's outlook.
一旦你知道了惊人的独特风格，你能认出她卡从20步开外的亮，滑稽，和对过去的眼睛。她通常有精致的花边设计由重复的图像：心，花，桃子，和茶壶，例如。最常见的，有安埃斯特尔，一个女子短，直的头发，大大的眼镜，帽子和酸的舌头。埃斯特尔安（按她祖母的名字命名）是虚构的代表玛丽的观。
Engelbreit is cheerful, down-to-earth, humorous, and always cute. "I think the world could use more cuteness," she explains. Indeed, it's her trademark. Her business card once featured a drawing of Ann Estelle, cigar in her mouth and drink in hand, with the message "Engelbreit's the Name, Cute Is My Game." She adds, "As the world gets more complicated, it's nice to have old-fashioned stuff around to help people cope with the demands of modern life. It's like comfort food. This is comfort art."
漫画是开朗，脚踏实地，幽默，和可爱的。”我认为世界可以使用更可爱，”她解释。事实上，这是她的商标。她的名片，一次精选绘制埃斯特尔安，雪茄在她的嘴和饮料在手，与消息“漫画的名字，可爱是我的招牌。”她补充道，“世界变得越来越复杂，它有一个好的老式的东西来帮助人们应付现代生活的挑战。这就像舒适的食物。这是舒适的艺术。
Old-fashioned art — and values — have always been at the core of Engelbreit's life. Born June 5, 1952, in St. Louis, the oldest of three daughters, she started drawing almost as soon as she could hold a pencil.
老式的艺术和价值观——总是在核心的漫画生活。1952年6月5日出世，在圣路易斯，最古老的三个女儿，她开始画几乎只要她能拿铅笔。
One of her earliest memories, from age four, is of sketching her parents all dressed up to go out for the evening. "I was so impressed I had to record it," she says. But what impressed her most were illustrations from the children's books that her mother read to her. Artists such as Jessie Willcox Smith,
她的一个最早的记忆，四岁，是素描她的父母都穿着盛装去参加晚会。”我印象很深刻，我有记录的，”她说。但给她印象最深的是从插图的儿童书籍，她妈妈给她读。艺术家如杰西·，
illustrator of children's literary classics, and Johnny Gruelle, creator of Raggedy Ann, were very influential in the development of her early drawings. While attending secondary school, Engelbreit sold dozens of hand-drawn cards to a local shop for 25 cents a piece — her first venture into art and commerce. She ignored her teachers' advice to become an English teacher and didn't bother with going on to a university because "I was ready to plunge into my life as an artist." Working in an art-supply shop, "I met working artists and realized you can make a living doing this." A later job as a designer at an advertising agency "taught me about the business of art" . 插图的儿童文学经典，和强尼·格鲁埃尔，创建者拉格迪奥恩，是非常有影响力的发展了早期的素描。在上中学，是卖几十手绘卡当地商店25美分-她的第一次创业到艺术和商业。她对她老师的忠告成为一名英语老师，也不想上大学是因为“我是准备投身到我的生命作为一个艺术家。”工作在艺术品原料店，“我会见了工
作的艺术家和意识到你可以赚钱这样做。”后来的工作作为一个设计师在一家广告公司“教我关于艺术的业务”。
1975是满足社会工作者腓德拉诺，和夫妇结婚两年后。德拉诺成为他的妻子的最大支持者。”即使我们没有钱，他说，“去工作，”她说。”我无法表达我的感激之情，对他的支持。”之后，命运多舛的纽约之行，是送去她的图2贺卡
公司。一个买了她的三个原始图纸，和她偶尔的其他工作，素描很多鲸鱼，龙，城堡和神话中的动物。在1980她儿子的出生对她的工作增添了新的元素。”突然，日常生活似乎更感兴趣，”她说。
In 1975 Engelbreit met social worker Phil Delano, and the couple married two years later. Delano became his wife's biggest supporter. "Even when we had no money, he never said, 'Go get a job,'" she says. "I can't express my gratitude for his support." After that ill-fated trip to New York, Engelbreit sent a sample of her drawings to two greeting-card
companies. One bought three of her original drawings, and she did occasional work for the other, sketching a lot of whales, dragons, castles and mythical animals. Then in 1980 the birth of her son added a new element to her work. "Suddenly everyday life seemed more interesting to me," she says.
孩子，宠物，甚至“善良的老妈妈”开始出现在她的贺卡。她的工作成了“日常生活的画卷，每个人都经历过的事情”。在怀孕八个月，在1983，她决定开始自己的公司。在两年的时间里，她的公司生产了近100种不同的贺卡，卖一百万人一年。她在1986许可版权的卡到日出的出版物，谁现在经营自己的生产和分配，让她把重点放在其他项目。这些是她的室内装修杂志，发送到550000人。Children, pets, even "good old Mom" started showing up on her cards. Her work became "pictures of daily life, things everyone's been through". While eight months pregnant, in 1983, Engelbreit decided to start her own company. Within two years, her company was producing nearly 100 different cards and selling a
million of them a year. In 1986 she licensed the copyrights to the cards to Suise Publications, who now manages their production and distribution, allowing her to focus on other projects. Among these is her home-decorating magazine which is sent to 550,000 people.
尽管她的成功，大的脚牢牢地插在。她还住在16公里从她长大的地方，有很多的朋友可追溯到学校来，和从大房子搬到较小的一个，因为，她说，她的家人没有使用的所有空间在老地方。她作画多半在自己家的工作室在晚上。Despite her success, Engelbreit's feet are planted firmly on the ground. She still lives 16 kilometres from where she grew up, has many friends dating back to school years, and moved from a large house to a smaller one because, she explains, her family didn't use all the space in the old place. She does most of her drawing in her home studio at night.
她的工作起飞，在这么多的方向，也许是不可避免的，她最终会实现她的梦想说明儿童书。1993她创造了一份图纸的儿童书，看到它成为一本畅销书。同时，她作出了一个惊人的发现：“这很有趣，但奇怪的是，我还是最喜欢做贺卡。” With her work taking off in so many directions, it was perhaps inevitable that Engelbreit would eventually realize her dream of illustrating a children's book. In 1993 she created drawings for a children's book and saw it become a
best-seller. At the same time she made a surprising discovery: "It was fun, but oddly enough, I like doing cards best."
