Allons au marché

It is amusing to me that only in my illustrations a girl can be anything that she wants to be such as wearing a fancy sundress with a loud jewelry pearl statement and go to the farmer market afterward. This is the case for this young lady; Stella who along with other young designers showcased their work. Her creations are all made of pearl jewelry statement. Hard work and long hours and sleepless night does pay off since her crowd was supportive.
         I love supporting local market in my area and I believe subconsciously it is the reason why a farmer's market is never too far from my illustrations. I am not exactly where I want to be yet as an illustrator who happens to love fashion but I am seeing progress and my evolution as an artist. Although I am building my "niche" little by little, taking chances to be seen, I believe there is always room for improvements whether by observing, learning, being patience and study as well.

Mahogany beauty and Haiti

With summer around the corner Zoey wants to enjoy every little bit of relaxation the season has to offer. The first place she had in mind for relaxation is a Caribbean Island where the tropical breeze never cease to make one stop dreaming. Her excitements settle when she booked her ticket for a long period of time in Haiti. The destinations that are on her list are  "Les Cayes" in the South of Haiti where the Carnival of 2012 took place, then Le Cap; the Northern side of the Country for some serious sight seeing and an approach to Haitian History. With the awesome app of "Lokalhaiti" on her phone she surely will have Haiti in the palm of her precious hands. It's been so long since she's been contemplating to visit the hidden side of Haiti so it is only fair that she takes her time to play hard for she worked hard to earn that Bachelors in Public Relations after undergoing so many majors. With that said, we wish Zoey a wonderful trip visiting Haiti with the hopes of seeing tons of pictures.

Smelling roses and coffee {Sunday Sketch}

I m not really sure what went from my creative well crafted subject lines to my sudden attack of random quirky lines now. Without going through much details over this arrangement in this mind of mine, I would love to present you to Gabriella. Gabriella is much like me with that long flowy hair. I would love to say that she works at my current school (Institut Francais d'Haiti) as the Cultural Event person. Much like me, she loves the arts and she is devoted to spend majority of her time working in the arts...Besides she is a true believer that you must love what you do. Waking up every morning planning events, meeting new artists to bring them up front to the crowd is what Gabriella was born to do. Don't you just love her mean walk attitude? Yes you guessed it right, time is money and time is valuable  :)

Un ptit retour d'age

I am sure everyone realize that little children and candy goes hand to hand. Life is fine for them as long they are sucking happily on their lollipops, ice cream or anything sugary for that matter...Did any of you ever finished those round giant colorful lollipops? well since I too can be guilty of wanting vanilla sandwich cookies, I thought it would be better to illustrate it instead :)...and because it's been so long since my last illustration.

Sight Seeing and Ruffles!

A lot of my time has been spent painting or occasionally daydreaming through my Pinterest boards. I am always striving to find nex techniques to create colorful abstract art for the sake of my house. Between the hunger for new techniques and being kidnapped by Pinterest, the desire to travel started to kick it in. Oh the feeling of rushing on a airplane while strolling a little carryon in the back. Ok I know first hand it isnt as dreamy as I made it seem but hey.

  I Dreamed of Italy was created on a my traveling whirlwing with a lady who's spending her afternoon shopping in the country side of Italy in her heels and with her bike. {Check out the link for you won't regret it)Thank you Imagination I owe you one!


But Today our gal Julia is sight seeing the streets of Saint Tropez, France with her bike while sporting on a green and yellow ruffle shirt, a long side braid, high waist red pants while buying fresh new flowers to embellish her cozy little apartment during her year long stay for a program of studying abroad.
