Writing on Skin

I was asked by a good friend of mine to help out with an art assignment. She recruited a heap of us to help out. All that was needed was a pen and a cooperative body to act as our canvas. We were to write our most prevalent thoughts on somebody's skin, and here is mine. Each of our photos will be included in the art work as well as the pens with wich we wrote it.

I love her ideas they are always fresh and interesting.

Hopefully my creativity will start to flow again soon. My poor head is just so cluttered with everything else at the moment.

She Looked At The World Through Rose-colored Glasses

I'm in love with rosy shades of pink. 

Once upon a time I hated the colour but I've come to appreciate it once again.

Also I'm on the hunt for a baby pink stackhat, if anyone has one they'd like to sell or knows where i may find one please let me know : ).

Keep Me Close To Your Heart

These little cuties are my handpainted brooches. Each one is unique, handpainted by myself with acrylic paint and sealed with a gloss laquer. They are 3.5cm in diameter and currently come in three design types- dreamy eyes, sweet lips and pretty portraits. If your interested in owning your own little piece of wearable art you can purchase them for only $10 AU each. Just email your details to echoesofyesterday@live.com.

Swing Tags and New Projects

Just finished making my new swing tags. 

I have used a dusty pink embossed card.

Think I may go on a hunt for a corner rounder, loving rounder corners right now.

Latest project- hand painted eye brooch.

Today I'm going to make some more of these, each one will have an individual eye colour. I'll also be giving them a coat of laquer soon.

Anyone else got some creative plans for the weekend?

Art That Inspires Me- silversaga

I found silversaga's photography through flickr. I love her work it's so light and dreamy.
Her rooms series is also really amazing, very eerie with its ghosty whisps.

I'm really loving these soft blues and pinks at the moment, going to go and hunt down some soft dreamy fabrics.
