a little place to call my own (art and fashion blog)

Hi everyone! It's time for another  Inspired by ....post. The medium is acrylic on cardboard. This time I illustrated Tijana from fashion abejita . Painting lace is always a challenge and I'm aware that I have a long way to go when it comes to illustrating fabrics, but all things considering, I think I did pretty well. In fact, I'm quite happy with how this painting turned out. This outfit is a summery one, but it is suitable for Spring as well. Besides, green is in this Spring.  Zdravo svima! Vrijeme je za još jednu Nadahnuta s. ..objavu. Medij su akrilne boje na kartonu. Ovaj put sam naslikala Tijanu sa bloga fashion abejita . Slikati čipku je izazov i znam da imam još puno toga za naučiti kada je ilustriranje tekstila u pitanju, no  kada se sve uzme u obzir, mislim da ova slika nije loše ispala. Zapravo,  poprilično sam zadovoljna s time kako je slika ispala. Ova kombinacija je ljetna, ali zapravo se može nositi i na proljeće. Osim toga, zelena je ...

Time for another fashion illustration.  The medium is acrylic on cardboard.  The inspiration behind this one was Dolce & Gabbana Autumn/Winter 2017/2018 collection. Just in case you're interested, I have recently illustrated another runaway look from this collection,  so feel free to check it out ( here ).   Vrijeme je za još jednu modnu ilustraciju.  Medij su akrilne boje na kartonu.  Nadahnuće za ovu ilustraciju bila je kolekcija Dolce & Gabbane za jesen i zimu 2017/2018. U slučaju da ste zainteresirani, nedavno sam ilustrirala još jednu kreaciju iz te kolekcije, pa je slobodno pogledajte ( ovdje ).  Runaway look vs my fashion illustration  HOW IT LOOKED AFTER THE FIRST LAYER OF PAINT  PRVI SLOJ BOJE I KAKO JE TO IZGLEDALO         FINISHED FASHION ILLUSTRATION / ZAVRŠENA MODNA ILUSTRACIJA 7 OTHER TIMES I ILLUSTRATED DOLCE AND GABBANA RUNAWAY LOOKS 1.

A red-haired girl wearing a green blouse, that is my painting of the day. As you might have noticed, I'm really into the pantone colour of the year. The medium is watercolour on paper. Did you know that red hair naturally occurs only in about 1-2% human population? The same goes for green eyes. Those two colour codes are rare in human DNA, perhaps that is why they fascinate us so. How is your weekend going? You know, I've been thinking....These days I sometimes get this feeling that we are burdened with an endless pile of things that fall under the infamous 'must have' category. Films we need to see, books we need to read, events to attend, items we need to buy...and this list always keeps growing. At times it can be so distracting that we forget that what we truly need to do is live. To live in a moment for a bit. To be a good friend, sister,  brother, coworker, child, parent, neighbour, human being. We don't have to see all the films, read all the books, buy all ...

Today I'm sharing another fashion illustrations with you. The medium is acrylic on paper. I already shared it on my Instagram page, but I was waiting for today to share it on my blog because well it is saint Patrick's Day so I wanted to post something appropriate. On this day it is customary to wear green. Hence, the girl I illustrated is wearing a green outfit. 17th of March (the day of saint Patrick's death) has been an official Christian holiday since the 17th century. This day is  (as far as I know) observed by the majority of christian churches. Saint Patrick is the patron saint of Ireland. As one might expect, this day is especially celebrated in Ireland. The Feast of Saint Patrick can be defined as a religious and cultural celebration that takes place on this day. This celebration can come in many shapes and forms. These days, the Feast of saint Patrick doesn't only take place in Ireland, but all over the world. Have you ever attended it? I haven't, but I...
