Lost Flowers in the Wilderness - Inspiration Friday

Happy Inspiration Friday, everyone!
I hope you are all doing well.
Last night my brother and I went and
Saw our friends Eisley and our friend
Christie DuPree play in San Diego. It
was a really fun concert and they sounded great!
Eisley played all of the songs
from their new album The Valley.
It was really fun to hear them all live!
They are playing on Sunday at the Troubadour in Hollywood
if you live in the area.
Check 'em out! : )

Floating Back In Time - Inspiration Friday

A Midsummer Nights Dream, Lina Scheynius


Morning my Friends!
Happy Inspiration Friday!! :)
Wow i've had way too many late nights this week!
But it's been good learning so much.
I'm so excited for you to see what i've been working on! :)
Most of the images in the Inspiration Friday set are from one of my favorite movies, A Midsummer Nights Dream (1935).
The movie is magical so i thought i would throw a set together based on it.
I hope you're having a very inspirational day!

P.S. What are your top 5 collections of this season?

One Year Later Tribute to Alexander McQueen - Inspiration Friday

Well, today is a very special edition of Inspiration Friday,
as this is the one year anniversary of the death of Lee Alexander McQueen.
I thought I would put together a special tribute to him for all of the times that he has inspired me.
I've never been so consistently in aw and inspired by any other designer.
He was able to create a world that was both beautiful and terrifying, but it was so clearly a world outside of ours.
I don't think I will ever cease to be inspired by all the wonderful things that he made.
I hope this set of images inspires you today! :)
I add a song i wrote that i felt like fit the mood of his collections.


p.s. My friend Chadwick Tyler chose his top picks for this season for the site fashion copious is a great article check it out here :)

Reliving Again & Again - Inspiration Friday

(Images by Lina scheynius, Sarah Moon, and the first one is of sient film actress Lillian Gish.)

Happy Inspiration Friday!
I'm just getting rolling for today and so far so good.
Currently brewing some more coffee, and trying to get warm, and get on doing some writing.
Today's Inspiration Friday theme kind of has a Groundhog Day theme to it.
The Concept was "An old memory that you want to relive over and over again."
I really like how the set of images turned out. All of the pictures have a really warm and pleasant feel. ;)
Well, I hope you are having a great day! :)

The Wind Swept Dream of Lauren Bacall - Inspiration Friday

Photos by Lina scheynius, Barbara Cole, & Alfred Hitchcock

Happy Inspiration Friday!
Yay, we made it!
This a Long and Fast week...I know it doesn't make sense...
but it has been! hahah
I've been multi-tasking a lot this week which kind of gets me disorientated,
but i think i should have a good relaxing day of painting today.
Today's inspiration Friday set, i really like the mood and the aesthetics of it.
Plus i got to put one of my favorite actresses Lauren Bacall in it,
and got to put a still from one of my favorite Alfred Hitchcock's "The 39 steps "
I hope have a great Inspiration Friday!
Welp, i hope you all have a great weekend!

Moon Brought Visions of Far Places - Inspiration Friday

Photo from Chadwick Tyler, Sarah Moon, Jac Remise, and the movie La Boheme. Not sure of the source of the sea picture.

Yay! Happy Inspiration Friday!
I'm really excited to get back painting now that everything is clean.
I started sketching out the concept of what i'm going to paint...
and needless to say, i'm really excited to start it.
The Inspiration Friday set today was semi inspired by Dreams.
You know how in dreams, things that are strange and different exist in your dream,
yet somehow they don't seem out of place,
and how most of the faces your see in dreams look familiar even though you may not know the people.
Well this was kinda my starting concept with this set.
I hope you like it and have a great inspirational day!

So! Last night I went to see the play, "Peter Pan" with my family!
It was incredible, so much fun.
That is only the 3rd play i have ever seen, but i am dying to see more.
It's so magical!
I really hope you like the set of images today!
I was really excited to work in one of my all time favorite pictures by my friend Chadwick Tyler (it's the second image on the left).
