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

This watercolour is a reproduction or at least that is what it was supposed to be but I never got around to finishing it. So, what we have here is a painting I'm not sure I will finish and a book whose sequel I won't read.

When passion for fashion illustration meets love for flowers....wonderful things can happen. Lately I have been learning the trick of joining fashion design and rose pedals.

U zadnje vrijeme sam učila trik spajanja modnoga dizajna i ružinih latica. Pogledajte fotografije ako ste rasploženi za malo cvjetne čarolije. P.S. Žao mi je što sam malo odsutna u zadnje vrijeme, no to je život. Nadoknadit ću vam to prije ili kasnije.<3   INSTAGRAM BOOK TWITTER GOODREADS LOOKBOOK YOUTUBE    ...
