coffee on paper /kava na papiru


Somewhere I've read about this technique of painting with coffee and I've decided to give it a try. So, if you're wondering what it might look like this would be about it. Supposedly people who do this sort of painting use all kinds of coffee (including cappuccino) but I did it with Turkish coffee (and besides wouldn't the milk that is in cappucino have a bad smell after a while?)

 Negdje sam čitala o tehnici slikanja kavom pa sam odlučila pokušati, ako vas zanima kako izgleda, to bi bilo otprilike to.... Čula sam da ljudi koriste svakakve vrste kave za ovo (uključujući cappuccino), ali ja sam to izvela sa turskom kavom ( pa zar ne bi kava sa mlijekom imala neugodan miris nakon nekog vremena)?

    oh, you are so creative! I have never tried this technique! Looks like it's really possible to draw with anything, all we need is desire and inspiration:)

THE ISLAND OF THE MISSING TREES BY ELIF SHAFAK (BOOK REVIEW AND RECOMMENDATION)

Image
Today I shall review The Island of Missing Trees by Elif Shafak. I was actually gifted this book. What a wonderful present it proved to be! Published in 2021, this postmodern  novel  follows two  story lines and uses framed narration.  The Island of Missing Trees  tells the life story of a Greek Turkish couple and their adolescent daughter.  This novel examines and explores a number of topics such as identity, migration, immigrant life, war trauma, memory, love and family. It's an ambitious novel that examines serious topics with due respect and sensitivity . I read it months ago, but I remember it vividly. Honestly, I cried a lot while reading this novel. It really moved me greatly. In fact, that is probably why it took me this long to finish this book review. I needed to emotionally process the story.   The Island of Missing Trees is   set in London and Cyprus. The narration isn't chronological .  The story jumps back and forth, following ...

THE BRUTALIST BEAUTY OF SPLIT SUNSET

Image
Split is famous for its Unesco protected Old town that is basically a preserved ancient Roman palace, but there is more to Split then just its ancient part. As a lover of history, I often post about the old parts of Split. As a lover of architecture, I sometimes post about the parts of Split built in the seventies and eighties! If you have been following my blog for a while, you might have come across posts showcasing modern neighbourhoods such as Split 3  (with its University  Campus ),   Trstenik (with its signature skyscrapers) and Žnjan  (that is not restricted to the namesake beach but rather a whole neighbourhood). There is a lot to see in Split. Besides the more well known ancient parts of Split, there are also these award winning modern but still historical neighbourhoods, a triumph of brutalist architecture dating back to the seventies and the eighties.  Dinko Kovačić , in particular, is a Split architect whose work continues to amaze me and inspi...

A FASHION ILLUSTRATION OF MYSELF: ACRYLIC PAINTS (STOBREČ)

Image
Hello dear readers! In this post, I'll share three original fashion illustration of an outfit I wore to visit Stobreč (Croatia). While I was in Split, Croatia, I also paid Stobreč a short visit. Following my visit, I decided to illustrate the black and burgundy outfit I wore. Sometimes I illustrate my own outfits. Why not? That way I can have an actual illustrated version of my closet, not just a digital version on this little place to call my own. And to think I thought that digital closet from Clueless was the coolest thing? This is way cooler! I used acrylic paints on mixed media paper for these illustrations. Some would say that acrylic paints are not suitable for fashion illustration, but I have been breaking that rule ever since I started doing fashion illustrations years ago. I even used oil paints for my fashion illustrations. For those interested in the fashion illustration making, I will walk you through the process in this post.  I didn't find these illustrations as ...

THE COUNT OF MONTE CRISTO 2024 MOVIE REVIEW

Image
In this post, I'll share with you a review of  The Count of Monte Cristo.  I don't go to theatre/movies often. In fact, years have been known to pass without me seeing a film on the big screen. However, when I saw the poster for the new 2024  The Count of Monte Cristo movie, I knew I simply had to go.  I really wanted to see this film, and I didn't even read the reviews or watch the trailer for it. I wasn't even intimidated by the fact it is a three hours long. Afterall, it's based on a rather long novel, so I didn't expect it to be short.  Now, I usually review books on my blog, not movies. However, perhaps this film review won't come as a surprise to you. I don't know if you have noticed, but I included a few Monte Cristo quotes in my last post .  So, you could say this Monte Cristo post was sort of teased or at least expected.  In the post preceding that one, I mentioned how much I like French movies and recommended one of them-  The Odyssey ...

10 STYLE LESSONS LEARNED FROM MALENA/ MONICA BELLUCCI

Image
With summer being in full spring, I caught myself thinking about iconic summer outfits. Do you know what came to my mind? Costumes/outfits worn by Monica Belluci when she played Malena Scordia in an iconic Italian movie set on Sicily.  The costumes for that movie were designed by an acclaimed Italian costume designer Maurizio Millenotti and he outdone himself! Seeing that Malena is a historical movie, Maurizio choose quite timeless outfits and cuts that will ever go out of style. That fact makes Malena movie the perfect place to look for inspiration! Moreover, I feel that Monica Belluci's personal style is quite similar to Malena's (i.e. to the style of the character she is playing). There is definitely a Mediterranean lady feel about Malena/Monica Bellucci. What says summer better than Mediterranean and Sicily? Today we'll analyze Malena's style and see what we can learn from her. There is much to learn! Having analyzed looks that Monica wore in iconic Malena film, I...
