to wear a painting( outfit post) / nositi sliku (odjevna kombinacija)
















How does it feels to wear your own painting? Pretty good, I must say. The design on this skirt I have created with red textile paints. I'm aware that this outfit is a bit out there, featuring not only my art but all kinds of prints and colours....but hey, you only live once. The location for these photographs is hotel Mogrjelo.  Whenever we are in Čapljina, we usually stop there to have a coffee. Why? Is it necessary to ask? 

Kakav je osjećaj nositi vlastitu sliku? Poprilično dobar, moram priznati. Uzorak na suknji sam stvorila s tekstilnim bojama. Znam da je kombinacija dosta šarena,  (možda i prešarena), ali jednom se živi. Slike su uslikane ispred hotela Mogrjelo, kada smo u Čapljini tu obično svratimo na kavu. Zašto? Je li potrebno pitati?

    I had some catching up to do! You always looks so fresh and elegant in whatever you wear and very pretty even without makeup. That's so cool that you have your art on your clothes. Is it your art on the blue coat and the jeans as well? We had a lovely sunny February too but typically, March wants to be wet and windy. I hope you have lots more sunny days and I look forward to seeing more of your art on your clothes! xoxo

    Now that's what I call a perfect coming together of art and clothing. And it also solves a problem of what to do when one runs out of space on the walls to put up new pieces of art: transfer onto something you can wear instead, and become a moving gallery.

    Wow Ivana! Just wow! Before I even read the text, I thought I saw your art on the skirt and I was right. That's really a beautiful and unique skirt and nobody else in the world would have such an artistic skirt like yours! I do agree that there seems to be more than 1 thing going on there but I love the quirkiness and you're right about the fact that you only love once. SO experiment all you want. It is always cool to look back at these photos.

    I wanted to thank you for kind, thoughtful and warm comment you left on my blog recently. You touched my heart. I know what you mean about looking for job and not being able to find it. I think many of us go through it at one point or another. I can only tell you what my dear friend Libby kept repeating me when we went through a dark patch. It's always darkest before the dawn. And also, keep your dreams in your heart always. Love them. Believe in them. They are there for a reason!

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 two main timelines, one set in moder

SUPPORTING LOCAL DESIGNERS IN MOSTAR: TRANSITIONAL AUTUMN STYLING WITH OZZ BRAND

Hello readers and fellow bloggers! In this post, I'll share two transitional outfits featuring a lilac skirt from fashion designer Stanka Zovko. If you're a regular reader of this blog, you've probably seen this skirt before. Afterall, I'm really good at shopping my closet. I've been wearing this lilac skirt a lot in the past few months. It's also a great piece for transitional weather because it can be easily layered, or dressed up and down.  Supporting local designers and artisans is certainly something that pays off in the long run. If you want to own unique pieces and at the same time, support your local community, you should really explore shopping local, or commissioning local artisans and designers.  Sustainability in fashion is a big topic nowadays! However, sometimes I feel like people make it more complicated than it really is. We should go back to our origins. Explore vintage, second hand and local shopping.

FORGIVENESS DAY BY URSULA K. LE GUIN (BOOK REVIEW AND AN AUTUMN STYLING)

Image
Hello dear readers and fellow bloggers! How are you today? I'm back with another Ursula K. Le Guin book review. In this post, I'll review " Forgiveness Day" , a science fiction novella that is a part of the Hainish Circle. Published in 1995, "Forgiveness Day " won multiple awards. This novella is often published together with her other novellas from the Hainish Circle, and it can be find in various editions of Four Ways to Forgiveness and Five Ways to Forgiveness.   Thematically, this novella is a part of five stories featuring two Hainish planets, but it can definitely be read on its own. I think it functions well as a stand alone novella. I listened to it in audio form, and I didn't have any problems following the story.  The world building is simple and effective. The author fills us in about the history of the two planets as the story enfolds. For such a short work of prose, this novella is really impressive in that it manages to explore the theme o

MALTA HIKING TALES (PART FIVE) GHAJN TUFFIEFA AND QUARABBA BAY

Image
Hello dear readers and fellow bloggers! I'm back with another Malta themed post. Recently I posted a painting inspired by Malta. As some of you might remember, I visited Malta a few years ago, but I only blogged about it last April, when I published a series of post on Malta. My series about Malta isn't finished, though. In fact, today we're going to continue it. Considering my stay on Malta was two weeks long, it deserves more than a couple of posts. There is a lot to see and do on Malta. It's a small island, but one that's filled with so much life and beauty. Although Malta faces some problems caused by fast tourism, it remains an unique and magical island.  In this post, I'll take you to the bays I visited while hiking on Malta. One of them (Ghajn Tuffieha Bay) is the one I painted. You can visit that post by clicking on the link below: TRAVEL WITH MY ART #43, GHAJN TUFFIEHA BAY, MALTA LET'S START WITH THE GOLDEN BAY We actually didn't go all the way

FASHION ILLUSTRATION FRIDAY WATERCOLOUR: LONG DRESSES AND DE PROFUNDIS QUOTES!

Image
 Hello dear readers and fellow bloggers! It's almost ten. I've had a long week and I'm quite tired and sleepy. However, I'll try to wrap this post up for you tonight. What kind of post? Well, a post about art. Fashion art to be more precise.  I've been on a roll lately with my art posts. After a period of not posting my art at all, due to a variety of reasons, I started posting my art in every post. I got back to my destination art series, and now it's time for another post in my fashion art series. Friday Fashion Illustration  is somewhat of a regular feature on my blog. Today I'll share two watercolour pencil fashion illustrations of mine. I sketched both of them this Summer in my A3 mixed media sketchbook.
