Vintage Lollipops

First things first... here's another peek at one of my upcoming paintings, Extension!  I've been wearing this awesome little DailyLook zigzag Heart Monitor Ring   everywhere, and I mean everywhere . Probably shouldn't when I'm painting because I always seem to have a bad case of the messies, but it's just so fun... you should get one! 

(9 x 12 watercolor painting, February Kate- bidding starts at $9.99 ) Prints and more   available   too!  This Victorian style curios cabinet is one of my favorite things to gaze at in my studio. Its overcrowded existence began with a few interesting pieces and then somehow morphed into a small army of completely superfluous antique treasures that on most days seem to have a life of their own.

Sometimes my drawing table looks more like an alter...  (Rings: Vintage turquoise, Forever 21 and random spider, DailyLook Raw Stone Wire Cuff   and Embellished Stud Wrap Bracelets   similar Double Spikes  here ) Remember, you can save 20% off your first DailyLook order by following this link !

Here's a look at what I've been working on... can't wait to show you the finished piece!

The connection between the realms of fashion and art, which is long-believed as one of the most acclaimed partnerships to date, is limitless. Sometimes to disturbing degrees. Thriving on a visionary extreme that clearly compliments one another, they seem to breathe life into the notion that fashion is easily interpreted as a walking art form. From imagination to inspiration, the construction of prospect to palette unfurls, beckoning for constant fluidity. The result is unbending and exemplifies the diligent hands of both famed French Renaissance painters and modern-day designer's sketchpads. Together, fashion and art create a language within itself. And here's the good news, you don't have to be silver-tongued to appreciate it because it's the voice of style, the beauty of artistic originality... and the masterpiece of its creator that we learn to appreciate. We've seen Phillip Lim, Markus Lupfer, and Lisa Perry's take on prominent pop artist Roy Licht...
